Positive and constructive books .. Yes !

Unread post

Hello I am Carole, I am from France and I love books. I like the kind of books you are discussing on your bookclub.
I am trying to read only positive and constructive books, meaning books that help us to go forward in life and be developed (learning new things, enlarge our life scope ..), based on good principles (honesty, non violent, never give up, compassion, respect our instincts and others ..) ..); for the fictions : with strong caracters who always remain aligned with theirs principles of life and with noble sentiments.
My best readings are from Victor Hugo (Les misérables ..), Jack London (Call of the wild ..), Maxim Gorki (My childhood), Ernest Hemingway (the old man and the sea), Rabindranath Tagore .... Steinbeck recently.. and I read non fiction as well (Indrajit Garai ..).
My hobbies are about sports (swimming, running ..) and reading (as much as I can).
I have started reading ebooks as it is practical ..
Looking forward discussing positive books with you all

:welcome: Glad to have you aboard Carole. I also like many of the writers you mentioned. Will try to think of some others you might enjoy. :wink:
Love what you do, and do what you love. Don't listen to anyone else who tells you not to do it. -Ray Bradbury

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. -Robert A. Heinlein
