Every Book on Emma Watson's Reading List

This was her January/February 2017 selection for her Goodreads book club, Our Shared Shelf.

"Estes' ideas are both ancient and completely new. She points to storytelling, our ancient narratives, as a way for women to reconnect to the Wild Woman all women have within themselves, but have lost," Emma shared when she selected this book for March/April 2017.

She read the book in January 2016 for Our Shared Shelf.

"I am trying to choose works that cover as much ground as possible and are diverse," Emma wrote to her book club in February 2016, "I've heard amazing things about this book from a person that I trust."

"I read it on a plane from London to New York and I laughed out loud and cried so much I think the whole of my cabin, airline staff included, thought I was losing my mind," Emma wrote in March 2016.

Emma chose this as her March 2016 choice for Our Shared Shelf after bell hooks interviewed her for Paper. "It's been on my list for a while," she said.

On reading this book, Emma wrote in April 2016, " It might require a bit of work but The Argonauts rewards us with an expansive way of considering identity, caretaking, and freedom—along with a liberation from, what Maggie calls, 'the demand that anyone live a life that's all one thing.'" She said, "Maybe it will change the way we think and speak about others and ourselves?"

"As Iran enters another important period of change, with relations re-opening with much of the world, I think this is a particularly good time to pick up Persepolis," Emma wrote in June 2016, "Satrapi's deceptively simple, almost whimsical drawings belie the seriousness and rich complexity of her story–but it's also very funny too."

Emma selected this book as her July/August 2016 Our Shared Shelf pick.

In August 2016 Emma suggested this book which, she writes, helps readers "learn that the key to enabling change and economic growth is in unleashing women's potential."

"This is perhaps the greatest window into what shaped Angelou as a writer and poet and a fitting end to a lifetime of amazing works," Emma wrote in her review when she selected this book as her November 2016 read.

This fantasy trilogy's main character Lyra Belacqua is one of Emma's favorite female fictional characters, as she Tweeted in October 2015.

While interviewing Malala Yousafzai in November 2015, the two agreed on enjoying this book.

Emma tweeted about the book in February 2015, "I had to tell you about this book. If you've already read it tell me what your favourite bits were."

"It's been less than 3 weeks and I have devoured Torch, Tiny Beautiful Things, and Wild," Emma wrote in a  January 2015 tweet thanking author Cheryl Strayed and Reese Witherspoon, who played her in the movie Wild.

"Dear Ava, I loved your book," Emma tweeted in March 2014.

When a follower on Twitter asked for a book recommendation in March 2014, she shared this one.

"I had kind of said I would never do a franchise again, so I was desperate to hate it," she told Wonderland in 2014, "Unfortunately, I didn't sleep for about a week because I couldn't put the bloody thing down. It would be fair to say I became obsessed with the role and the book. Now I am executive producing it."

"I'm kind of an introverted kind of person just by nature, it's not like a conscious choice that I'm making necessarily," Watson told Rookie after reading this book in 2013, "Coming to realize that about myself was very empowering."

"I stayed up til 4 finishing your book last night," Emma tweeted to the author in September 2013.
