João pondered the question for a moment. He had read many books up until this age since he had learnt reading, so it took him quite a while than the others to come up with the one, though he knew all along which book it would be. It was the very book whose main character had quite similar problems with him. In the end, he figured that was his book after all, even if the author wasn't Brazilian. Raising his hand, he said "My favourite is Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger," he said, then paused. "La Vie Devant Soi by Emile Ajar is also pretty good too," he added with a small frown. Sadly, he didn't know the title in English. "I guess both are pschological/real life books." At least Catcher in the Rye was definitely a pschology book.
