Hands down……one of THE most life changing books that I’ve read ever!!!! You NEED to read this book if you want to change EVERYTHING!
You Are a Badass: Stop Doubting & Live Awesome
this book doesn’t just tell you what to do to improve your focus. The book also gives personal anecdotes, scientific studies, real world examples, and a few interesting stories. Overall, I learned a lot and feel better off having read this book.
Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success [Paperback]
I'm in love with this book, first I bought the kindle edition and then the paperback. Love all the advice it gives and when I'm feeling down I re-read and it absolutely changes my perspective of the moment I'm living.
The Gifts of Imperfection: 10th Anniversary Edition
Romance 💕
Pride and Prejudice is brilliant. Once you pick it up, you won’t put it down until you’re done. After you’re done you’ll pick it up again and start over. Just like your favorite movie, no matter how many time you read it, you can always read it just ...
Pride and Prejudice
This is the best book Ive read in a looong time. I listened to the audio version first and quickly ordered the physical book. I have read it three times and cant get enough. If you never buy another book but this one, you’ll be satisfied. I LOVED it ...
Love and Other Words
I can not recommend this book enough. It’s passionate, deep, epic and impossible to put down. The two characters have a love that transcends time and space.
The Light We Lost: Reese's Book Club
I just finished reading Normal People. As much as I like the book because I resonated with both Connell and Marianne and their story, it's a little too dark for me. While reading, I even needed to take some breaks just to give myself enough headspace...
Normal People: A Novel
This was a unique and poetic love story. I don’t think I’ve ever read anything quite like this. It was abstract and beautiful. It was dangerous and suspenseful.
This Is How You Lose the Time War
an excellent romance novel. It’s a series of love stories from the viewpoint of a man, and I appreciate that it was written by a man who doesn’t sound like he’s coming from the male gaze. Full of emotion, heart ache, and passion.
Enigma Variations: A Novel
Horror
Nothing scares me but this story kept me awake at night. It made me wonder if, almost believe that, there's a bit of truth to the existence of Straub's superior, dark energy beast.
Ghost Story
Just…do it. But do it while holding your dog close. Not before you sleep. 10/10 could not put it down
The Deep: A Novel
A nice quick little mind bending read! I read it in one night and couldn't put it down! No slow build up to get through it goes straight into the weirdness!
Sour Candy
I actually got this as a gift and it turned out to be my favorite horror read. Honestly, it’s the first book that scared me enough to stop reading and wait until daylight just to get through a scene
The Shining
Fiction
Outstanding read till the very end, last paragraph made my mouth drop wide open!
The Song of Achilles: A Novel (P.S.)
There’s a reason this book is hyped as much as it is. I read a lot, and this is easily one of the best books I ever read. I already want to read it again.
Lonesome Dove: A Novel
I wasn’t expecting a book about time travel in a tiny café to hit me like this lol. it’s quiet, kinda odd, and super gentle, but it builds this emotional weight by the end that snuck up on me. Each chapter is a story of someone going back in time for...
Before the Coffee Gets Cold: A Heartfelt Novel
Couldn't put it down once I started. Easy reading yet deeply emotive writing. A tale of youthful love and the premature responsibilities that arise from it.
Norwegian Wood
