My favorite Emily Henry book! The lady can write a plot and a wonderful romance at the same time. When this becomes a movie, you can catch me FRONT ROW!

Beach Read by Emily Henry

This is one of those books I never put down. I needed to know if they ended up together! Heartfelt, cutesy, funny, it's everything I wanted in a summer book this year!

I live for Elsie Silver books, so no duh I love this book. This is the first book in a start of interconnected standalones about hot single dads. Do I even NEED to say anything else!?

Emily Henry is literally my favorite author. This is another must read. I laugh, I cry, I feel a lot of things.

Funny Story by Emily Henry

What I wish Grey’s Anatomy was like. Two doctors falling in love and getting to follow along as they do so. A passionate and wonderful novel that did make me cry!

Yours Truly (Part of Your World, #2) by Abby Jimenez

What I would do to read this book again for the first time. Emily Henry tells another great tale and weaves in drama, friendship, and romance, all in one incredible book!

Happy Place by Emily Henry

I’m not a super science-liking person myself, but the characters in this book are so cute for their nerdy selves. I never knew how amazing a STEM romance could be. An older, angtsy, hot, LI and UGH HE’S SO GOOD. Wish I could read this for the first t...

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood

A wedding planner and a florist with a history. If that doesn’t get you, then what are you doing? This book is kind of enemies still lovers but not really but kind of and I’m so here for it. Definitely spicy and the scenes are top-notch a great love ...

Forget Me Not by Julie Soto

Romantasy (Romance + Fantasy)

My favorite series ever (minus Harry Potter). My first intro to SJM, but I’m so grateful to have read this before ACOTAR because THIS SERIES IS SO MUCH BETTER! If you like insane and epic stories with whirlwind romances and magic, this is for YOU.

Throne of Glass

If you’re looking for a combination of fantasy that takes place during modern times, with epic action and romance, then this series is for you. SJM does it AGAIN!

Crescent City Series by Sarah J. Maas

Reminded me so much of Crescent City. I DEVOURED this book, so if you like Crescent City by SJM, you’ll definitely enjoy this read! The magic and power is different than I’ve read before, but clearly I loved it!

Terror at the Gates (Blood of Lilith, #1) by Scarlett St. Clair

Obsessed with everything she writes. The fact she wrote a romantasy novel UGHHH. Straight crack I could not put down!!!

Bride #1 - Ali Hazelwood

Sequel to Bride. Ali wasn’t even going to write a sequel but the FANS FANNED. So happy she wrote one because I liked this one even better!!

Mate (Bride, #2) by Ali Hazelwood

I wish I could read the series over again for the first time. This writing and story is kind of all over the place but honestly, I’m here for it. I was so invested in this series and these characters. Their relationships are kind of weird, but I need...

The Awakening (Zodiac Academy, #1) by Caroline Peckham

If you’ve ever wanted to read something related to medieval times with an angsty love interest and a funny sidekick, this book is for you! I was locked in the whole time and I cannot wait for the second one to come out!

The Knight and the Moth (The Stonewater Kingdom, #1)

A retelling of beauty and the beast, but nothing like you’ve read before! The series is so popular, but it’s so worth it. You’ll get whisked away into a beautiful world with beautiful characters. The stories just get better and better.

A Court of Thorns and Roses: Maas, Sarah J.

Sports Romance

I love me a good baseball romance, especially one with a single dad. This story and relationship are so well written. I definitely got emotional reading this book, but that just shows how good it is!

Caught Up (Windy City, #3) by Liz Tomforde

I never knew I needed to read about a figure skating enemies to lovers, but after I read this book, I knew I needed it in my life. I reread it right when I finished it. It was good!

From Lukov with Love by Mariana Zapata

Literary Fiction

For my sports lovers and romantics- this book is for you! The epic story of a legend's comeback with a side of romance and family🥹

Carrie Soto Is Back by Taylor Jenkins Reid

The story within the story of this novel is incredible. I think that’s the best part of it. The romance is just a great addition, but I was eating up the story.

Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry

Young Adult

Didn't know this was a Draco and Hermione fanfic rewritten to not be Harry Potter related. BUT WOW WOW WOW. I cannot stop thinking about this book! The magic, the storytelling, the enemies to lovers bickering and forbidden romance vibe! UNREAL! Need ...

Rose in Chains (The Evermore Trilogy, #1) by Julie Soto

I’ve never actually liked Suzanne Collins writing. THIS BOOK CHANGED THAT. I never knew how much I needed this Haymitch prequel until I read it in one sitting. For any Hunger Games fan, you must read this. AND THE MOVIE COMES OUT IN LESS THAN A YEAR!

Sunrise on the Reaping (The Hunger Games)

Thriller/Mystery

I genuinely didn’t know what to expect but this book was insane. It was so good. I just did not expect that ending whatsoever. Highly recommend!

The God of the Woods

This book is a mix of a murder mystery and a reality dating show. So if you like both of them, you should definitely read it!

One Perfect Couple by Ruth Ware
