    Default Top 5 Pieces of Literature

    What’re the top 5 pieces of literature you’ve read? I say literature instead of “books” because instead of a continuous narrative in prose format, you can include epic poetry, collections of poetry, or even plays (if you’ve read them, not just seen them live).
    My top 5 favorite books are:
    1. The Scarlet Letter - Nathaniel Hawthorne
    2. The Complete Plays - Sophocles
    3. The Complete Tales and Poems - Edgar Allan Poe
    4. Brave New World - Aldous Huxley
    5. All the Light We Cannot See - Anthony Doerr

    Honorable mention: any of the books from Andrzej Sapkowski’s The Witcher series.
