Lit's recommendations for someone whose native language isn't English? My girlfriend has shown an interest in reading novels written in English, but the book which she chose based on the cover, Lolita, was too difficult. I gave her McCarthy's The Road and she loves that so far. She's already asking me what she should read next. ASOIF? She likes the shows...

I'm not a native speaker and these are all pretty readable, with Lolita being the hardest (but should be manageable after reading the others).

Give her that, and Harry Potter, and so on and so on. Then when she has a grasp on the language, better books.

ASOIAF is actually a good choice. Hemingway is always recommended as well.
