- Middlemarch by George Eliot
- Marjorie Morningstar by Herman Wouk
- The Fantastic Mr. Fox by Roald Dahl

Commentary
This list includes some great novels . The Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger is a great coming of age novel that readers either love it or hate it. Personally, I think it is a good read but I haven’t read it in ten years or so. Maybe I should give it a read and see how it holds up after all these years.
Besides the Salinger novel, I haven’t read any other novels on Scarlett Johansson’s list unfortunately. I hope that changes by the end of this year. Middlemarch by George Eliot is a classic and while I have seen it a lot, I have never gotten around to reading it.
Another novel/author I haven’t read much of is Roald Dahl besides The Chocolate Factory. I have seen many people say they like Dahl’s novels and that makes me feel like I am missing out. Which novel should I read first?
Conclusion
Overall, I think this a great list because it contains a lot of novels that many people have and have not read. It is has a good variety of novels and has helped me add more books to me to-read list. Which novels have you read or would like to read?
I love Ronald Dahl, and my favorite of his books is ‘James & the Giant Peach.’ I consider it one of the greatest, if not the greatest, children’s book of all time. That is the one you should start with!
