What are the most popular ones in the list of famous novels?

A popular one is also 'Sleeping Beauty'. A princess is cursed to sleep for a hundred years until a prince comes to wake her up with a kiss. It has that element of magic and romance that makes it a great bedtime story. The vivid description of the castle and the sleeping princess can make you feel like you're in a fairy - tale world as you drift off to sleep.

Among the most famous in a list of historical novels is 'Brave New World' by Aldous Huxley. It envisions a future society based on historical trends and social structures. It makes you think a lot about the direction of human development.

Definitely 'The Shining'. The story of a family in an isolated, haunted hotel is really creepy. The sense of isolation and the slow descent into madness are well - crafted. The hotel seems to have a life of its own, with all its ghosts and strange occurrences.

One of the most popular is 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid'. It has simple but really funny illustrations and a story that many kids and even adults can identify with. It shows the daily life and small - scale dramas of a school - going kid in a very humorous way.

Definitely 'The Scarlet Letter'. It's famous for its exploration of sin, guilt, and Puritan society. The symbol of the scarlet letter on Hester Prynne's chest is a very powerful image.

Definitely 'Frankenstein'. It's super famous for its exploration of the consequences of playing God. And 'Dracula' is also very well - known for creating the modern vampire archetype. 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' too, as it shows the decay of the soul in a very unique way.

I would also say 'Carmilla' by Sheridan Le Fanu. It was one of the early vampire stories and had a big impact on the development of vampire lore in Victorian horror. It features a female vampire, which was a bit different from the more common male vampire stories at the time. It has a very gothic and eerie atmosphere that is typical of Victorian horror novels.

One of the most famous American romantic novels is 'To Kill a Mockingbird'. While it's mainly about racial injustice, the relationship between Scout and Dill has elements of innocent first love. And Atticus Finch's love for his children and his sense of justice is also a form of love that pervades the story. Another is 'Moby - Dick' which, while it's an adventure story, also contains Ishmael's complex relationship with the sea and his shipmates, which can be seen as a form of romantic connection to the unknown.

Well, 'Catcher in the Rye' is extremely well - known. Holden Caulfield's coming - of - age story and his disillusionment with society have made it a staple of American literature.

A very famous one is 'Mrs. Dalloway' by Virginia Woolf. While she was British, this novel influenced American modernist writers. It follows a day in the life of Clarissa Dalloway and uses interior monologue to great effect.
