"Last year when I had a birthday party, I told my friends that I didn't want fancy presents—just for each of them to bring me a copy of their favorite book and to write on the first page why it's so special to them. It was a wonderful night, and I had so much fun discovering what my friends thought about each book." —Gwyneth Paltrow, actress Books that made a difference to Gwyneth Paltrow: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles Franny and Zooey by J.D. Salinger Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger |
