4. The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F**K
Non-fiction with somewhat of an inappropriate title(hence no picture). The author, Mark, is one of my favorites. He used to be a blogger and it's reflected in the easygoing style of the book. This book has a balanced amount of easy/moderate/hard vocabulary and most of them are words of daily use in American English.
3. A biographical book. This one has a relatively better vocabulary but is not something considered as hard. The story has some of its roots in Japan. Written as a memoir, this kind of style also touches on the details of personal writing. If you're on a long train ride, Shoe Dog pairs perfectly with your mood.
2. You've probably heard of this one. One of the world's best-selling books, The Alchemist is so good because it draws an inspiring picture in the simplest of language possible. Probably the shortest in the bunch, this book is even liked by non-readers. You'll remember most of the vocabulary used in this novel by heart by the time you're done.
5. Probably a household name for those who read, Murakami-san's Men Without Women is a collection of short stories which can be read in any order. These stories are short and deep, hence a good practice to hone your English skills. The Oscar-winning movie "Drive My Car" was based on one of these shorts. This is especially good for comparing translated texts if you get your hand on the Japanese version.
