Animal Farm by George Orwell
If someone liked this book, what other books should they read?
Animal Farm is such an amazing book. Anyone who liked it would definitely like 1984 which was also written by George Orwell.It has some of the same themes and equally amazing writing. I would definitely recommend 1984 to anyone who enjoyed Animal Farm by George Orwell.

Before We Were Free by Julia Alverez
Would you recommend this book? If so, who would you recommend it to, and why? If not, why not?
Before We Were Free by Julia Alvarez is an historical fiction book about a girl who lives in the Dominican Republic during the sixties. She has to struggle with her tyrannical ruler and nobody taking her seriously.
If I could recommend this book to anyone, I would recommend it to somebody who liked the book "How Tía Lola Came to Stay" also by Julia Alvarez.

I Am Malala by Malala Yousafzai
Would you recommend this book? If so, who would you recommend it to, and why? If not, why not?
I'd recommend this book to people who enjoy reading about and engulfing themselves in a character's/person's life. I also think that people who like reading about social rights issues and how people react to them and changes in a country's politics will also like reading about a young girl who stood up for education the way she thought was best; by continuing to go to school and speaking up for it.
