✨ Spiritual, Mindset & Manifestation Reads
These are the books that remind me that energy responds to awareness. A mix of spirituality, mindset, and practical magic — each one holds a thread of truth about creating from alignment rather than striving. They’ve helped me stay grounded, trust th...
This was a really clear guide to bringing manifestation into your life. There are short exercises to do that will really make manifesting simple and a pleasure!
Manifest: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life
Roxie actually recommends you read this BEFORE you read Manifest. becauseif you haven't audited and built up your own self-confidence, then you can't identify how you want your life to change and what you are inviting in.
Confidence: Eight Steps to Knowing Your Worth
If you have a limited money mindset or any type of tricky relationship with money, this is a great book to help you see things in a different way. Money is only limited to us when we set those limits. The tone of this book is so playful that you can'...
Rich as F*ck: More Money Than You Know
I'm halfway through this book and I love the gentle and yet no-nonsense tone of it.
Aligned Abundance: Release, Become Magnetic & Manifest
This was my first foray into the concept of the law of attraction and that abundance is there for the taking. My thoughts and beliefs on this subject have developed somewhat, but it's a great place to start.
The Secret (The Secret Library)
This one feels like a deep breath - simple truths that land softly but powerfully. It’s less about grand gestures of self-love and more about awareness, energy, and boundaries. I love how Vex writes with such clarity and warmth - reminding us that lo...
Things No One Taught Us About Love - Bestseller
Stories That Shifted Something
These are the novels that made me feel everything — messy, tender, raw, and real. They explore what it means to be human, to love imperfectly, and to grow through the chaos. Each one left an echo, changing how I see people, emotion, and connection.
Favourite book - always and forever. Read it for my school exams and Lizzie Bennett has been my heroine ever since. Films and series come and go but this book remains constant.
Pride and Prejudice (Deluxe Edition)|Hardcover
I can't even explain why this book is one of my favourite stories ever…it just is. I think it might be the beautiful description of the setting and the elements of nature in it. Just amazing!
Where The Crawdads Sing
Totally under-rated Matt Haig book. I loved the Midnight Library too but this book just touched me with it's sad and yet beautiful pain.
How to Stop Time: Matt Haig
This isn’t a spiritual book - but it reminded me how everything is connected. Even in chaos, there’s a pattern emerging beneath the surface. It taught me to trust the threads - in life, energy, and intuition.
I Am Pilgrim|Paperback
Something about this book just got under my skin. I loved how awkward and aloof the characters were - how they didn’t quite fit into what everyone else thought was “normal.” It felt honest. Messy. Real. It reminded me that connection doesn’t always l...
Normal People: Multimillion Copy Bestseller
This one hit me with its intensity - all those tangled family dynamics and unspoken expectations. I loved how it showed the fractures beneath the surface of a “respectable” life, and how each person carries their own private rebellion. It made me thi...
The Lives of Others: Amazon.co.uk: Mukherjee, Neel
Quiet, steady, and heartbreakingly human. I was drawn to the way this story holds silence- how grief, duty, and love sit side by side without ever being fully spoken. It reminded me that not everything needs to be fixed or understood; some emotions j...
The Lowland: Booker & Women's Prize Finalist
I loved how unexpected this story was - tender, strange, and unsettling all at once. It made me think about what it means to be human, and how we separate ourselves from the parts of life we don’t want to feel. It’s a reminder that connection - whether to people, animals, or our own emotions - is what keeps us whole, even when it hurts.
We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves - Booker Prize
This one stayed with me long after I finished it. It dances between timelines and souls, showing how our stories ripple through time in ways we can’t always see. I loved its mix of mindfulness, loss, and quiet hope - it reminded me how every moment, ...
A Tale for the Time Being by Ruth Ozeki
I loved how this book blended chaos, grief, and humour - it felt like life, really. Messy, absurd, and strangely beautiful. The writing has that sharp Scottish wit, but underneath it all there’s this question about what we leave behind and how we mak...
The Crow Road by Iain Banks
This book made me uncomfortable in all the right ways. It captures those subtle, complicated dynamics that happen when people mean well but don’t really see each other. I loved how it explored power, privilege, and the stories we tell ourselves about...
Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid
✨ Currently Reading – Becoming Through the Pages
These are the books keeping me company right now - the ones sparking new ideas, gentle motivation, or quiet reflection. I read intuitively, following what I’m drawn to, so this list will always be evolving. It’s less about finishing a book and more a...
I’ve only just started this one, but I already love the energy behind it - simple, direct, and full of possibility. It’s about daring to ask for what you truly want and taking small, inspired steps toward it. I’m reading it as a gentle reminder that ...
What's Your Dream?: #1 Sunday Times Bestseller
✨ TBR – Waiting For The Right Moment
I’ve always had shelves full of unread books — each one holding its own kind of invitation. I don’t rush them; I wait until something inside me says “now.” This is where they live in the meantime — stories and ideas that I know will meet me when I’m ...
I've heard so much about this book - good and bad - and still see it mentioned almost every day. I can't wait to decide for myself!
The Let Them Theory: Life-Changing Tool
Still sitting on my shelf, but I’m drawn to it. I love the title - it feels cheeky and grounded - and I’m curious to see how she blends astrology with real human insight when I get there.
I Don't Believe in Astrology: Life Wisdom
This one caught my eye because it’s crime fiction with substance - exploring power, culture, and what drives people to do unthinkable things. It feels like the kind of story that doesn’t just entertain but makes you question how humans think, follow,...
Lightseekers: Intelligent, Suspenseful & Engrossing
This one looks like the kind of book that’ll make me laugh, wince, and nod in recognition. I love stories that peel back the layers of how we’re ‘supposed’ to live and show what’s really going on underneath. I have a feeling this will be both funny a...
Cat Lady: The Sunday Times Bestseller
This one’s been sitting on my shelf for a while, and I know I’ll get to it when the timing’s right. I love that it’s about a woman who refuses to shrink herself to fit expectations - smart, quirky, and brave in her own way. I’m expecting it to make m...
Lessons in Chemistry: A Novel - Bonnie Garmus
This one feels big - messy, funny, and full of flawed people trying to make sense of life. I’m drawn to books that hold contradiction with compassion, and this seems like one of them. I have a feeling it’ll hit that sweet spot between heartbreak and ...
The Bee Sting by Paul Murray
This one’s been calling to me for a while - that blend of science and energy fascinates me and I've seen so many people in the spiritual/holistic world reference it. I love how Dispenza connects the mind, body, and field in such a practical, grounded way. It feels like a book to read slowly, w...
