Emily St. John Mandel's 6 favorite books

Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson (Signet, $4). Stevenson's 1883 page-turner was the first full-length book I ever read. I was slow to pick up reading — I struggled until I was 7 — and I still remember the joy I felt when the pieces suddenly clicked into place. All these years later, I retain strangely vivid images of scenes in Stevenson's book.The English Patient by Michael Ondaatje (Vintage, $16).
