I've sorta read A Clockwork Orange, that should be older than me. Didn't understand it much. Also read lots of Roahl Dahl and Charles Dickens too!

I've read heaps, most of them are really good books once you get into them. Plus you have to read those types of books in English as the one I've got atm is 1985 but some of the classics are really good
