I love Louisa May Alcott's books because I love the XIX century, and I like all the manners of that time, that you can obviously learn and understand by reading her books. I love the dialogues she writes, and the plenty of characters she has, though many of them seem quite similar to me :P
Also, I've read Little Women a thousand times so far, and now that I'm older I belive each of the main characters represent a part of my own character and temper, and that's why this book is so meaningful to me :)

Reading is a passion that we cultivate, just like we do with the relationships. I've read and re-read Graham Greene's The End of An Affair and Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, both love stories, both classics. I love Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Dickens and Willa Cather. Of the recent authors, Khaled Hosseini is one writer whose books I find difficult to put down once I begin. There! Those are my prejudices. The greatest fear I've is not being able to read books, Virgil.
