Favorite books

My favorite book would have to be "Oliver Twist" by Charles Dickens, I love the nineteenth century writings of this magnificent author and the themes he writes about. The theme of this story and many of his writings deal with poverty and how an individual copes with it and leaves poverty behind them. At least that is what I got from this story. A lot of nineteenth century novels are hard for me to comprehend but Charles Dickens' books are easy to read and comprehend. Another favorite book of mine is a guilty pleasure and it is by Jackie Collins. It is called "Hollywood Wives" and it is filled with lurid details about what Hollywood what was like in the author's mind in a fictious view.
