Why read it?
1 author picked William Shakespeare's The Phantom of Menace as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

It is humorous and so totally unexpected, which is the best thing about reading adventures—I love surprises! Blending ideas or combining very different styles resonates very deeply with me because of my own blended background as a German-Italian-South African. I absolutely love it when the unexpected melding of two different things bring forth something entirely new, like fusion cooking.
From Astrid's list on upliftment and adventure in thought-provoking ways.
