Slow burn, tension filled books that make you giggle and kick your feet

A list with my fav books, books by bipoc authors and overall recommendations

With two kids under 4, we do lots of reading at bedtime and these are our favorites 💙

Here's my list of books that I have read, or want to read that have animals as their main characters - and aren't kids books!

I’ve loved reading ever since I was a kid. Now that I’m in college, reading for fun is a great way to relax and manage stress. I also love that it gets me off of my phone! My favorite genre is romance, but I’m down for anything that’ll get me hooked and make me lose track of time!!

The books that made us fall in love with reading ✨ these are the nostalgic reads I hope my kids grow up loving just as much as we did.

A whole lot of curiosity, organizing your mind or just being lost in the world of fantasy through book, this list is for you 💝

Putting every single book on my TBR here- keep me in check and I’ll give you the best Romantasy, fantasy, and fiction recs I can!

I'm a HUGE book lover. I'd kill for a book I can get lost in. If I had a dollar for everytime I fell in love with a fictional character and made up a silly little fake scenario before going to sleep... Bezos would fear me.

I average about 50 books a year, and would double it if my time allowed. Anything I can do to make my precious reading time more comfortable and cozy, I do! This list inlcudes my favorite cozy essentials that are not only great quality but are also an amazing price. We’re all about getting lit on a budget here!

These are some of my favorite reads. These days I tend to listen to audiobooks, but some books I still want to read the hardcopy. Sometimes I want to flip through the physical copy. These are those books.

I am a BOOK LOVER📚 no I am no librarian or literary expert, I rate off of vibes and having a 5⭐️ feeling

I just started getting into reading in the last few years, these are some books that captured my attention and I fell in love with them.

My absolute favorite books in this trope. I’ve read so many, but these are the ones I’ve gone back to read again. They’re a little spicy, morally gray, there’s turmoil, but also sweetness and romance.

The hottest girls are the intelligent girls. Let’s keep those minds sharp, ladies!!! And I promise: it doesn’t have to be boring. Here are my best book recs for hot girls who wanna sip an iced coffee and swap scrolling for synthesizing.🔥☕️📚🤓

I read aloud every night to our kids, ranging from eleven to seven years old and, unfortunately, we’ve read a few duds. 😬😆 Here are a few books that you can actually look forward to reading with your kiddos that can cross a wide age range!

Postpartum, I realized I needed a hobby—something that felt like mine again. Enter: reading. Do I know what makes writing “good”? Nope. Do I care? Also nope. My version of annotating(if I even bothered with that ) would be like: “make this emo quote a fb status in 2007?” or “okay but I would 100% live in this cottage.” So, while I’m not here to give you a masterclass in literature, I am here to share the books that made me laugh, cry, or at least forget about the laundry for a hot second. Here are my recent faves—complete with imaginary sticky notes, cold coffee stains, and the occasional eye roll.

Not every book is created equal. I mean technically, every book helps to support language and brain development at the very least. However, some are fun and silly like Dragons Love Tacos and other's help to bring up important topics like the Color Monster.Books are an amazing way to support other areas of development as well! They help to open up discussions and prompt your little one to ask questions. Here's a list of kids books and that area of development they support.

maybe it’s a millennial woman thing but i’ve read more in my 30s than ever (lol). I love true crime so obviously my favorite book genre is thriller! these are my thriller/suspense recs and ones I’ve really enjoyed reading 📚

In these last two years, I have embrace my fiction era. Historical, Romance, Sci-fi, Mystery, Paranormal, Fantasy, etc.

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

These are books that we love! We = me, my family, former students, and more. Good list to check for a gift idea, for something new, maybe even to go to the library and find! Please note: just because I put a book in a certain age range, that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t read it to another age group. Books are for everyone.

These are the novels that made me laugh, cry, and stay up way too late turning the pages. Whether you're looking for something moving, or simply impossible to put down, these stories are the ones that've stayed with me.

Step into a world of passion, heartbreak, and happily-ever-afters with our Romance Reading Books section. Whether you're a fan of swoon-worthy heroes, heart-fluttering chemistry, or love stories that make your heart ache in the best way, this is your ultimate destination for all things romance.💕📚

Sometimes I randomly add books to my tbr without necessarily reading the summaries because of the associated themes or sometimes it’s just because the covers are pretty - sue me. So when I do get to reading them I end up enjoying them more than I would’ve anticipated. So I’ve comprised this list in case anyone else is interested or in the same predicament as me and willing to blindly take my word for it? Happy reading -L

This is a list of books I've read throughout my lifetime that have left both an impact and a yearning to read more, no matter the age. Unlike certain boring reads we were assigned to go over in the declining U.S. education system, these books are meant to make people more interested in their concepts, no wonder what genre they fall under.

I've been peeping all over Etsy and am loving all the super cute book babe things out there to show off that you'd rather be reading :)

Sometimes all the advice can get overwhelming. Personally I'm a researcher and love to read other ideas to help me formulate my own. Being in a quiet space learning about my kids has helped me learn more about myself.

from tales of friendship to moving stories of love and loss, these books illuminate the ways that we relate to one another

I read a lot and I do a very poor job of keeping track of the many books I get through each year.

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.

Who doesn't need some book accessories, also, being a bookworm, I would've loved to know about the majority of these items years ago…

I always knew I did not want to follow the traditional path to retirement, financial independence, or wealth, so I started reading alot of great books to help me along my journey to financial independence and my goal to retire early.
