Emma Watson is a bookworm - and she's always sharing her recommendations.

Actress Emma Watson and Hermione Granger, the "Harry Potter" character she played for a decade, have at least one thing in common: they both love to read.

After starring in the billion-dollar franchise - which she did from age 11 to 21 - Watson attended Brown University and graduated in 2014 with a bachelor's in English literature.

Since graduating, Watson has continued to promote education - and reading - through her role as a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador, which she took on in 2014, according to UN.org.

But she hasn't given up acting.

Watson will play the role of another bookworm - this time Belle - in a live action adaptation of "Beauty and the Beast," which is expected to be released in March 2017. She's also currently filming "The Circle," a science-fiction thriller in which she stars alongside Tom Hanks, reports Variety.com.

When she's not acting or giving viral speeches on gender equality, the 25-year-old British actress-turned-activist makes time to read. Here are 17 books she has recommended through Twitter or her many interviews over the years:
