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.
