As an interior designer, a lot of my coffee table books are interiors related but I also love to have other books out for browsing to keep me inspired on a variety of levels.

Was chronically on 2021 booktok and have let that shape my personality since 📚✨

Books were my first escape. As a kid, they were the one place I felt seen, safe, and understood - like I belonged somewhere between the pages. As I got older, they became more than stories; they became teachers. They started correcting, guiding, and shaping me in ways I didn’t even realize I needed. These are the books that didn’t just change my mind - they changed me. Escape into my mind a bit. And stay a while.

I grew up reading and being read to every day, and now with my kiddos, books are a huge part of our daily routine. These are just some of the book series we currently have on repeat! Each series or set has multiple similar books which is great as toddlers love repetition! Once they’re into a set, this also makes it easy to find new books you know they will enjoy.

Alright all, you have been warned that this list is SPICY. Read the trigger warnings! All books can be found on Kindle Unlimited (KU).

Unlike most people in their 20s, I avoid many of the fiction books like the plague. Overly cheesy romance isn't really my thing either. If you're like me, here's a collection of books based on history, realism, and some imagination. And if you're a Muslim, there are books for you too here.

My Toddler Loves these books. Yours might too! Or it could be a good gift for a toddler in your life ;) Most of these are pretty affordable; there’s is a couple on the higher end but in my opinion a physical book gets so much use I don’t mind paying a little more up front.

American book store list. Books are divided into categories to help you pick a new read in your favourite genre!

✨ Books that make my brain create scenes while reading - in real time. I should definitely be a screenwriter. Or not. But these are my faves! 📚🎥

goated books ! no genre left behind , except for a few. i may discriminate against nonfiction books 🫢

Being able to read is a basic necessity in life that unfortunately many children struggle with. It really takes a patient teacher who can connect with a struggling child to get them to enjoy and comprehend reading. I was one of those children who did not enjoy reading. I made sure my child had a different experience with books. I love the joy my grandchildren have as I'm reading books to them.

From me & my daughter’s bookshelf to yours XO

Some of my favorite books and series are young adult, so I feel I have to share the ones I love the most! Browse recommendations across different genres, such as fantasy, thriller, and romance <3

It takes a LOT to keep me interested in a book, but I also like ALL types of genres... If you are quick to bore with fiction and/or love to learn with your non-fiction, this is the list for you!

I love a good romance that gets you lost in the story and characters. These romances will make you swoon, cry, kick your feet, giggle, everything you want in a good read!

One of my earliest memories is going to my elementary school library and asking the librarian if I'd have to learn to read books without pictures. She said yes. I took a deep breath. Picked up my first book with no pictures. And, I've been reading ever since! My lists contain just a fraction of the books I've read and loved over the years.

Books that I’ve read/listened too this year! Def check triggers when diving into the books I recommend! These are all probably spicy, romance in all sub genres. Fantasy, suspense, paranormal, etc.

beautiful writing about the end of the world

Do you love reading fictional stories?? Then this is the list for you!! As someone who found a love for reading over the past couple of years, these are some of my favs :)

I am a series fan, so here you will find quite a few. It doesn't mean I don't read standalones, but sometimes it feels like you live with the characters and want to know how they get on further down the road. So, when I finally get a quiet moment, these are the books I reach for — murder, mystery, and suspense that keep me turning the pages long into the night, sometimes with a bit of romance thrown in. From the chilling twists of D.K. Hood to the gripping cases of Angela Marsons, Jennifer Chase, and Neil Lancaster, among others, these stories never fail to pull me in. If you love books that make your heart race and keep you guessing until the very last page, you might find something that catches your attention.

Looking to Grow Closer to God? If you’ve ever wondered where He is in the middle of your journey, you’re not alone. But you can find Him—right in the pages of the Book He lovingly gave us. Open your heart and spend time in His Word. You’d be amazed at what’s waiting for you there. 🙏🙌✝️

My personal favorite young adult books everyone should read, small authors to best sellers, these books are highly rec.

When life shakes your confidence, the most powerful comeback starts within. This collection brings together books that help you rebuild trust in yourself, heal emotional wounds, and step back into your power — unapologetically. Gentle, wise, and deeply empowering, these reads guide you through self-discovery, boundary setting, and the kind of confidence that doesn’t depend on anyone else. It’s not about becoming someone new — it’s about remembering who you are. 💖✨📚

Here are books I’ve found relatable as an oddball. If you’re dealing with ASD, BPD, or GAD I’d bet you’ll also feel understood by these books, shows, and movies.

As someone who normally reads around 100 books in a year, here is an organized list of everything I've read this year!

From adventures to mystery, and sappy love stories to murder. Here are a few books to add to your reading list.

Yes, I know, I read a lot. And I love nothing more than a great adventure novel with an accurate historical background so that you learn about history while having fun. Hopefully I'll make you discover some new authors too.

These are books that I could barely put down after starting them. I read these within maybe two or three days max. I give my honest opinion about all of these books. I hope you find one to fall in your lap next.

These books continue to help me adjust my mindset long after I've read them, so I can become more productive with my online businesses but more importantly, my life. You will see dramatic improvements after reading these, I promise you that.

Start your day grounded in peace, prayer, and purpose. These are the things that help me slow down, focus on God, and care for my soul before the chaos begins. Perfect for busy moms, creatives, and anyone who craves quiet, faith-filled mornings.

Looking for a good read to curl up with this autumn? I’ve compiled a list of some of my favorites! Everything from cozy to spooky to horror, this list has a little bit of everything ✨

Really good horror and thriller books that have insane plot twists💀

books I need to read before I die. These are my Australian links, I also have an American list here: benable.com/akya/f6b0fc975870c29a8d2b

I am compiling a list of all my recent audiobooks and reads- hopefully helpful to other avid readers. (Heavy into fantasy genre at the moment)

These are some of my all-time favourite books, many of which I re-read over and over again.

My favorite current or past reads that I couldn’t put down!! 📚📖

I love a Sci-Fi novel filled with emotional backstories, apocalyptic scenery, and a dash of gore 😈 What's some of your favorite sci-fi books? 📚

Magic? Fantastical worlds? Strong characters? These books are for you! Everyone knows of classic fantasy books such as Game of Thrones and The Lord of the Rings, but new age fantasy brings a new light to classic themes. Found families, enemies to lovers, and unique romance adds another level of thrill. I hope you love these books as much as I did!

A cozy collection of bedtime favorites-- perfect for winding down, snuggling up, and sparking sweet dreams. From timeless classics to adorable animal adventures, these storieds bring magic to bedtime.

I tried to read lots of popular series while pregnant with my son. I’m working on building a little stash of quality reads for the kids when they get older! Percy Jackson sits on my shelf pleading with me but he’ll have to wait, I’ve got my hands full now lol

For nights when you need a book that matches the ache in your chest. Raw, tender, and a little waterlogged. These are the reads that feel like crying in the bath, candle flickering on the counter, steam rising, and your heart cracked open.

Those aren't just any titles - they are hand-picked by me, while following Dua Lipa book recommendations on Service95, which is known for sportlighting diverse voices, strong storytelling and emotional depth. Whether you love literary fiction, feminist stories, global perspectives or momoirs about self-discovery, this list gives you the best of all worlds.

Books about women searching for meaning, faith, love, or just a reason to get out of bed — and ending up somewhere weirder than they started. Think spiritual journeys gone off the rails: cosmic breakdowns, holy hangovers, mermaids, cults, and mothers who should probably not be your guru. Basically, enlightenment… but feral.

For all my fellow readers, here's a list of some essential items that will make it even easier to get lost in a book

My toddler’s favorite books about the best time of the year—fall! I’ve included our favorite Halloween and Thanksgiving books on this list as well. This list is geared toward toddlers and preschoolers, but big kids will also have fun reading these books.

Berikut buku-buku bacaan waktu saya kecil. Penuh kenangan indah, yang dipenuhi dengan imajinasi anak-anak kala itu. Persahabatan, kisah sedih, bahagia tertuang didalam buku-buku bacaan ini. Sungguh sangat kangen dengan masa-masa itu ♥️

I have included here classic and newer books that define, describe, and promote the field of complex adaptive systems. I have each of these books in my library and can say they all significantly influenced my thinking about human health as a complex system. Further, the knowledge I gained from these authors helped shape my research program that focuses on AI to understand the complexity of disease susceptibility.

Many books recommended on Booktok tend to slant towards the spicy persuasion. If you're like me and would prefer a clean read, these are some of my favorite books without explicit content. *A commission will be earned on qualifying purchases from this list at no extra expense to you*

I know there are way more avid readers than me out there but I think we can all agree that some book related items as a gift would be so fun to receive. I have created a list of items that are things we might not buy ourselves but would surely enjoy. Let me know if there is something missing.

This isn’t just another book list — it’s a carefully chosen collection of stories that stick. The kind you’ll want to talk about long after the last page. From pulse‑pounding thrillers that keep you up too late, to romances that warm like a favorite blanket, to nonfiction that challenges the way you see the world, every pick here earns its place. You’ll find page‑turners that grip, comfort reads that soothe, and imaginative escapes that remind you why reading matters. Think of it as your shortcut to books that are truly worth your time — stories that linger, provoke, and stay with you.

I love all things sci-fi, fantasy, and dystopia with an air of adventure and a touch of historical fiction. I want my curiosity piqued, my feels unleashed, and my imagination running wild! Sound like your kind of read? Welcome to my personal library of my most-loved novels and short stories. Enjoy literary works of art from my top favorite authors: Ray Bradbury, Scott Westerfeld, Lisa See, Edgar Allan Poe, Jane Austen, Laurie Halse Anderson, and Mary E. Pearson. Happy reading!

If you love reading diverse books that are adventurous, emotional, and dark this fiction list is for you. If you dont like reading those, you should give it a try.

I love to read. Some months I read more than others and that is okay! Life happens. However, if you need a new read? Check out this list. From thriller to romance to fantasy.

Romance is my favorite genre so this list has a fair amount of romance but there are other great reads on here that don't interfere with my book boyfriends.

Books and series I think are 5 stars-love and recommend!!

A mix of everything I love! From immersive fantasy worlds and eye opening self help to practical guides, crystal wisdom, and more. These are the books that made me feel, think, or just totally escape.

Fresh reads, final chapters, and everything I’ve recently closed the cover on. 📚☕️ From books that kept me turning pages to cozy moments with coffee in hand, this is where I share the stories that have captured my attention and lingered in my thoughts long after the last page.

Reccomendations coming from an ORV fan, PEAK fiction (some are quite underrated), most of them are not BL (BL series will have a tag)
