So here we recommend certain books you should read if you are over 20.

Best Books For 20 Year Olds

1. The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari by Robin Sharma

The truth behind this book "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" could hit you too hard too soon. As we mentioned earlier age is no bar when it comes to reading, but this book in particular could best be understood only after you cross 20.

2. The Leader Who Has No Title by Robin Sharma

Another bestseller from Robin Sharma that could best be understood once you turn 20 is "The Leader Who Has No Title". The book is a motivational novel, where the author talks about all those leaders who were not honoured in their conventional domain, but their ideologies certainly proved them otherwise. This certainly is a subject one can understand only after attaining maturity and so is a book to skip before you turn 20.

3. One Minute Manager by Kenneth Blanchard

One Minute Manager is a book that is basically written for managers to help them supervise and control their employees so as to be able to achieve certain essential office tasks. Obviously this is a book that in general should be read only by an adult reader. One Minute Manager too stands to be listed amongst the books you should read once you turn 20 or once you have started working. It covers certain techniques that could help its readers in improving their productivity, job satisfaction and personal prosperity.

4. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

The Fault in Our Stars is a unique love story of two teenage cancer victims. The story mostly revolves around a couple who fall for each other despite the fact that they are struggling between life and death. Though the book blends all sorts of emotional elements like humour, sentiments, love and romance, the gist of the book could best be understood only after you turn 20.

5. Looking for Alaska by John Green

Wonderful characters, dialogues and fascinating prose makes this book a must read, but not before you turn 20. Looking for Alaska is a story of a young boy who decides to leave his public school at Florida and attends Culver Creek, a private breading school in Alabama, where he realizes that the circle of life is not all about happiness. Though the central character of the story is a young school graduate still we would recommend not reading this book until you turn 20.

6. What to Say When You Talk to Yourself by Shad Helmstetter

What to Say When You Talk to Yourself is a book designed to help deal with negative thoughts arising from a person's brain. The book talks about when people usually make mistakes and how these mistakes encourage negativity in them. Through examples taken from real life situations, the author showcases how to bring out the good in oneself and rise above negative thoughts. Thus this is yet again a philosophy book you should read only once you have crossed 20, as you would miss on to the essence of reading this book.

7. Paper Town by John Green

Paper Towns is certainly a New York Times bestselling book, but we strictly recommend you not to pick this book up for reading before you turn 20. The story revolves around Quentin Jacobsen who has been in love with Margo Roth Spiegelman. Margo and her adventures, has always been the centre of attraction of their high-school. However, reading this book before you turn 20 might just distract you from your goals.
