Animal Farm is a great one to start with as it is simple to read and easy to grasp the messages being conveyed, yet it is still very deep in tone etc.

I've also heard that To Kill a Mockingbird is a great read especially if you're looking to start reading Classics.

I highly recommend The Hobbit as the ambiance is so beautiful. It is a really beautiful, fun, adventurous novel that is extremely easy to read and fall in love with.

Other recommendations are:
- The Catcher in the Rye J.D Salinger
- The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
- Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
- Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen
- Persuasion by Jane Austen
- Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
- Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte
- Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Cadote
- Nineteen-Eighty-Four by George Orwell
- The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
