Beyond the Wand: Magic & Mayhem of Growing Up
Little Stranger was honestly such a wild reading experience. It’s one of those books where I kept thinking, “What am I even reading?” but at the same time, I couldn’t stop turning the pages.
Not a book I’d describe as a conventional romance, but if ...
Little Stranger - Leigh Rivers
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is a beautifully atmospheric and bittersweet fantasy about Addie LaRue, a young woman in 18th-century France who makes a desperate bargain with a mysterious being to escape a life she doesn't want. The price of her f...

The Cruel Prince is a dark, clever, atmospheric fantasy with a morally complicated heroine, vicious court politics, betrayals, and a deliciously complicated enemies-to-lovers dynamic. It’s less about a straightforward romance and more about power, su...
The Cruel Prince (Folk of the Air Series #1)
I honestly found The Book Thief heartbreaking but beautiful. What I loved most was that despite the incredibly dark setting, the story isn't only about war. It's about human kindness, friendship, family, words, and finding little moments of warmth in...
The Book Thief: Zusak, Markus
A beautiful and heartbreaking villain origin story that makes you wonder whether some villains were created by the choices they made—or by the choices they were never allowed to make. An imaginative retelling of the Queen of Hearts from Alice's Adven...
Heartless By Marissa Meyer
This is one of those books that looks like it will be a glamorous Hollywood romance but turns out to be something much deeper. Evelyn Hugo is unforgettable—flawed, ambitious, complicated, and incredibly well-written.
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo: A Novel
Adventure, Fantasy, Family, Friendships, and Bravery all put together, making you want to read chapter after chapter. Just can’t get enough of these books 💯👌🏻
Chronicles Of Narnia: Books
Another great set of books! 📚
Totally lived up to the hype ✨👌🏻
The Hunger Games Trilogy Boxed Set
The novel explores themes of friendship, fate, justice, perseverance, and breaking family curses. I would recommend it to readers who enjoy mystery, adventure, and stories where seemingly unrelated events eventually connect.
Holes (Newbery Medal Winner)
I definitely loved the movie, and it was a surprise for me to find a book version about it and I’m just so thrilled. Glamorous, funny, dramatic, and ridiculously entertaining—a perfect book when you want an extravagant escape into a world of unimagin...

Hotel For Dogs: Duncan, Lois - Books
Absolutely loved this book! If you’re a fan of childhood friends to lovers, you’ll absolutely enjoy this book 💯 Of course, a little drama and misunderstandings come first before we get to the happy ending.
Where Rainbows End: Ahern, Cecelia - Books
My whole childhood 🫶
I enjoyed reading these books as much as I did watching the movies ❤️
Jeff Kinney Diary of A Wimpy Kid 1-21
Teen romance full of drama with an addictive love triangle, if you’re in to that then this book’s for you 👍🏻
The Complete Summer I Turned Pretty Trilogy
A good read. My Friends is ultimately a story about how friendship can save us, how art can preserve the people we've lost, and how our lives can affect people we may never even meet.
My Friends: A Novel
The story explores love, friendship, illness, grief, and the idea of leaving a meaningful impact on others. If you like emotional romance, bittersweet stories, books that leave you thinking afterward, I'd definitely recommend it.
The Fault in Our Stars - Green, John
It's a beautiful but bittersweet book, and I think its strongest message is that loving someone can sometimes change the direction of your life even when circumstances don't turn out the way you hoped.
Me Before You: Moyes, Jojo
The Wedding People is a funny, bittersweet, and surprisingly emotional contemporary novel about starting over when your life doesn't turn out the way you expected. It's ultimately a book about reinvention, unexpected friendship, loneliness, and findi...
The Wedding People: A Novel

Heiress of Nowhere: Lee, Stacey
I have watched Coraline when I was just a kid and what joy it is when I found out that there’s a book version for it. Coraline is a beautifully eerie fairy tale about a curious girl who discovers that the perfect world she wants may be far more terri...
Coraline - Neil Gaiman
