Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen<\/strong>: This was required reading for your O levels course (or college) and now you consider yourself a firm Austenite.<\/p>\n

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte<\/strong>: “OMG, Jane is literally my idol and isn’t Mr. Rochester just the hottest?” you say. All. The. Time.<\/p>\n

The 40 Rules of Love by Elif Shafak<\/strong>: You now consider yourself an expert on Sufism and put up Rumi quotes as your desktop wallpaper.<\/p>\n

A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini<\/strong>: You have become one of those people who puts up “Like a compass facing north, a man\u2019s accusing finger always finds a woman\u201d as a Facebook status and your friends comment: “Hmm, true.”<\/p>\n

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho<\/strong>: Why isn’t the universe conspiring to give me what I want, you wonder. You must be a Millennial.<\/p>\n

Toba Tek Singh by Saadat Hasan Manto<\/strong>: This is the greatest thing ever written, you say, no, declare. Everything afterwards is just derivative.<\/p>\n

The Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling<\/strong>: You write Harry Potter fan fiction and still tweet with the hashtag #Potterhead4lyf<\/p>\n

Anything by Dan Brown<\/strong>: Give up reading, bruh. You’re drunk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
