Found these 3 books on the shelf at the Little Free Library at my children's Circus class tonight. I've read the first few pages of each but cant decide which one to take home.
Which one should I read first??

Post note, I took home all 3, I'm beginning tonight with Forest of the Pygmies.
So does anyone know or think of the author, Isabel Allende?

Lcsmcat Allende is a prolific writer, who writes in many styles. My favorites are Daughter of Fortune and House of the Spirits. 5y
Eggbeater I loved Son of the Circus, but John Irving is one of my favorite writers because his characters do the strangest things and yet are so relatable. 5y
Curiouser_and_curiouser @Lcsmcat thank you, I wasn't sure what her reputation was like. There is an "About the Author" in the back of the book which I haven't had a chance to look at yet. I am finding this book very easy to read but so far I feel it lacks a little maturity. As I'm struggling with seeing a book through to the end at the moment, I'm hoping the ease of this book will help me hang on long enough to complete it. 5y
Curiouser_and_curiouser @Eggbeater That's cool, thanks so much for your input! I've got about 4 of John Irving's books on my shelf already but I haven't had the chance to read any of them yet. Your comment has intrigued me to read further, thank you! 5y
