The chimp Paradox had a massive impact on me, and anyone who had issues with emotional reactions should have a read

I love Remember the titans and coach carter as films as they really hit home on unity and how you can be better than someone thinks you can!

Black Beauty - Anna Sewell

Little Women - Louisa May Alcott

One for the Money - Janet Evanovich

Dracula - Bram Stoker

Twelve Days of Christmas - Trisha Astley

Emma - Jane Austen

The Scarlet Pimpernel - Emma Orczy

I am unashamedly cheating with the next 3 because they are a series of books but I couldn't pick a favourite from the series!

Cosy Cafe series - Debbie Johnson

Inspector Faro series - Alanna Knight

Crowner John Mysteries - Bernard Knight
