We just want to thank you for sticking with us throughout the past #TopicThursdays and what better way to say thanks then providing you with a reading list to get you on your way.
We took some recommendations off others and considered our favourites too. We know there are plenty more books worth your while but I’m sure this is enough to start you off (as well as the list your teachers/lecturers give you).
Anyway, enjoy:
