                    My personal list of best-selling books.

1) Harry Potter.

Harry Potter is a series of seven fantasy novels written by the British author Joanne Rowling. It describes the magical adventures of wizards. The main characters are Harry Potter und his friends, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. All of them are students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Together they overcome the dark forces, especially their leader, the Dark wizard Lord Voldemort.  

Harry Potter is one of the best book which I have ever read. These books gave me the childhood. The stories, full of magic, are wonderful and exciting.  The books comprise many themes, such as love, hate, abuse of power, prejudice and free choice. Rowling’s style of writing is very interesting and beloved by children of all ages.

I recommend this book to anyone who believes in magic. Take the book and set out to Hogwarts, towards the great adventure, which will change your life!

2) All Quiet on the Western front.

All Quiet on the Western Front is a novel by Erich Maria Remarque, a German writer and veteran of World War I. The book describes the German soldiers' extreme physical and mental stress during the war, and the detachment from civilian life felt by many of these soldiers upon returning home from the front.

I thought this book was exceptional. As with any book dealing with the horrors of war, it’s hard to read. It’s full of violence. Death and suffering of the whole country, that most of us will never experience. What I thought was so extraordinary about this book was the author’s ability to so vividly place the reader right there on the front line with the main character.

All Quiet on the Western Front is a difficult book, especially for young readers like me, but I recommend to read it.

3) The Master and Margarita.

The Master and Margarita is a classical novel by Russian writer of 20^th century Mikhail Bulgakov. The plot of this novel is woven around a visit by the Devil to the atheistic Soviet Union.

This book is one of the classical book, that’s not boring. As my literature teacher said, “Classical literature is NEVER boring”. But in most cases it’s constantly boring. This book is an exception. It’s full of secret sense. It’s amazing style of writing. All characters are interesting and unforgettable; the plot is unexpected and exciting. 

I'm sure, that you must read this great book. Just begin to read, and you’ll never spare about it!
