Welcome to another edition of CharlesNotes where we dive into the mesmerising world of books. The realm of literature is as vast and diverse as the universe itself and what we're doing today is just cherry-picking some significant stars from this infinite universe.

Our first stop is in the land of the classics. 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen, a story that resonates across centuries with its socio-political commentary and masterful characterisation. We delve into the intricate relationship dynamics, the vivid settings, and the gripping plot that has left readers spellbound for generations.

Transitioning from the classics, we land in the realm of contemporary literature where we explore 'The Kite Runner' by Khaled Hosseini. A heartbreaking tale of friendship, betrayal, and redemption, as seen through the eyes of two Afghan boys.

We're flying next to the fantastical universes, unravelling the intricate web of 'Harry Potter' series by J.K. Rowling. This isn’t merely a children’s book. We delve into the underlying themes of love, sacrifice, racial prejudices, and the moral dilemmas facing each character.

From exploring different universes, we land back on earth for a dose of reality with 'Educated' by Tara Westover. A memoir that chronicles the protagonist's journey towards education and emancipation from her oppressive environment.

In the end, we hope this journey had enlightened you, entertained you, and encouraged you to expand your literary horizons. Remember, every book you read adds a star to your personal universe of knowledge, empathy, and understanding. So, continue exploring, continue reading.
