Give the Gift of Reading this November for National Reading Month


Sharing one of your favorite books with someone can be incredibly intimate. It’s like allowing them a glimpse of your innermost self and hoping they’ll approve. You find kindred spirits in people who have read the same books, best friends in fellow fans, and soulmates in those who share your favorites.

As the Philippines celebrates National Reading Month, there’s no better time to get some books off the shelves and find them a new home. Sure, gift-giving isn’t technically until Christmas, but the following books are gifts you shouldn’t deprive your loved ones of. Start the season of giving early this year by getting something for…

As Laurel’s letters chronicle the ups and downs of growing up, the reader stands witness to her heartbreaking coming of age.

Neil Gaiman returns with his third collection of short stories–this time, however, given with fair warning. “Consider yourself warned,” he says in the foreword, and readers would do well to heed it. Dark things lurk in the corners of the stories in this collection, full of dread and secrets. A must-read for any fan of horror.

In John Wyndham‘s critically acclaimed Chocky, we are introduced to 11-year-old Matthew as his family tries to deal with the person living in his head. While his parents think Matthew is too old to still be talking to imaginary friends, they become alarmed when he starts displaying talents thanks to Chocky. Without giving too much away, this gem of a book is completely unexpected and will surprise and entertain you–the sooner you read it, the better.

Most have undoubtedly encountered Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare as required reading in high school or college, but it’s always a wonderful piece to come back to. The cadence and language of the star-crossed lovers is best read out loud (ideally to each other while cuddling on a couch), and it will open up great discussions on romance, the tragedy of haste and love with your partner.

Hailed as one of the must-read mystery novels of 2015, The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins is a psychological thriller that will refuse to be put down. Anyone who has ever watched other people will be able to relate to Rachel, who learns how quickly things can change. Fast-paced and gritty, you’ll have a difficult time not finishing this in one sitting.
