The BBC Believes You Should Read at Least 5 of These Books for Your Personal Growth

And you'll earn 5 gold stars as well!
This challenge is the latest jumble of books accumulated on my TO DO pile as I cruise through challenges. Books by favourite authors, books with intriguing or downright bizarre titles, humour, historical fiction, children's books; non-fiction works on Jewish comedy, language, history, psychology, philosophy, medicine and science etc. etc.
Do you share any of my interests? BTW, my interest in psychology has grown since my daughter, a 2nd year Psychology undergraduate, has decided I have Asperger's syndrome.
