Robinson Crusoe, Daniel Defoe

A classic tale that I hadn't gotten round to reading. Although I knew the gist of it already his calamities before and after the island were a surprise. Once he's on the island everything seems to go his way. Everything he needs can either be gathered from the shipwreck or foraged. The classic footstep he finds on the beach has nothing to do with Friday.

Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, Jeanette Winterson

The beginning of the story presents a child highly religious upbrining and her differences from others in the community. As she grows and finds love with other women her family and religon reject her. A very easy to read book. P.S. Apparently there's pineapple as well.
