Fiction
All of my favorite fiction books. Some are sad, some are happy, some are heartfelt, but all of them have an amazing takeaway so by the end of the book, you want to go and live your life in a better way than you had before you read it.
This book quite literally changed my life and the way I view my past choices/regrets. I view my life in such a different way now because of this story. The narrative of “the grass is always greener” is really looked at profoundly in this book. It’s q...
The Midnight Library (GMA Book Club Pick)
This was the first book I read in over 6 years that was truly “for fun” and genuinely got me back into reading. It feels a little lengthy at first but once you get into the story, you literally cannot put it down. Everyone should read this book.
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue
I was so hesitant to read this because I’d heard it was “about an octopus” which just sounded so bizarre to me and uninteresting. However, this is in my top 10 favorite reads of all time. It’s so heartfelt and quirky. You’ll find yourself smiling thr...
Remarkably Bright Creatures: A Novel
A dark-humored feel good book. I love Backman’s writing style.
A Man Called Ove
One of my favorite female empowerment books I’ve read that’s just enough fantasy that it’s actually kind of believable if you’re into witches and magic. This book is amazing.
Weyward
This book is phenomenal. I was hesitant to read it because it’s a “classic” and I was worried about the language feeling outdated but it truly is one of my all time favorite reads and I read it every Christmas now.
A Christmas Carol
Thriller
Heart pounding thrillers and mysteries
My favorite thriller book I’ve read to date. Did not see the twist coming even a little and I can usually see the twists coming!
Local Woman Missing
The craziest thriller I’ve read. I recommend this book to anyone wanting to get into thrillers, or anyone that already loves them.
The Silent Patient
A great thriller and wild story
What Lies in the Woods
Similar story to “what lies in the woods”, this author is a great writer!
Flicker in the Dark
Romance
Most have a decent amount of spice, but nothing too crazy 😉
Cutest romance book with a darling story. I love that you’re trying to piece together what happened without it being a thriller
People We Meet on Vacation
Amazing story that falls under fiction with some romance and time travel in it. LOVED this book.
The Unmaking of June Farrow: A Novel
The first book in a long series that could not be more worth it honestly. The character development and storyline is unmatched. The romance and adventure is hitting on every point. If I had to pick one book to tell everyone to read, this is second on...
Outlander
Romantasy
Some good romance and fantasy books that have made me love the genre again
One of my favorite romantasy books I’ve ever read. Witch hunters and witches, are you kidding me?! Yes!
Heartless Hunter: The Crimson Moth Duology, Book 1
The second book in the Prythian series, (book 1 is A Court of Thorns and Roses), this book is top tier for getting back into reading. If you WANT to be a reader again and used to love reading, this series will get you back on the bandwagon. The secon...
A Court of Mist and Fury
Audiobooks
I only listen to audiobooks, but these ones are my MUST listen to’s, if I recommend it, I only tell people to listen to it
This is one of my favorite audio books ever! I’m an audiobook girl through and through, and this being written and read by my favorite narrator is an all time fave for me. Listen to it before reading it.
Thank You for Listening: A Novel
The voices in this audiobook are unmatched. Such a cool story without being unreachable to all us non-scientific people.

My favorite book that I got at the book fair when I was a kid. I still have the same copy and read it to my own kids.
The illustrations are unmatched and the story is the best about just embracing yourself and not being afraid to be who you are!

A great story about loving every part of yourself even if other people don’t.
