From wizards to fae 🧚🧙♂️
One of, if not my FAVORITE book. All the characters are likable and it’s a calm yet thrilling story! I’ll never get enough of it!❤️
Sorcery of Thorns #1 - Margaret Rogerson
This whole series is just so well written! I particularly love how there’s such a well thought out plot while still developing the side romances!❤️
The Cruel Prince (Folk of the Air Series #1) by Holly Black, Paperback
This whole seris is just a wild ride! The author wrote this in a way that didn’t make it seem like every other fantasy book seris! It just gets better and better with each book! 📖
A Court of Thorns and Roses
Mythological Retellings⚡️🔱
The best books for all mythology lovers!
This book had me on edge the whole time! I love that fact that it really focused on Circe rather than Odysseus dispite it being a retelling on the Odyssey!!
Circe - Madeline Miller
What kind of list would this be if Percy Jackson wasn’t in it!? Everyone interested in Greek myths NEEDS to read this if they haven’t already. Rick Riordan portrays each character so well and in depth even if they’re an antagonist!! There are so many...
Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Such a beautiful, modern remake of Ariadne’s story! The author makes each scene feel like you’re living it
Lifestyles of Gods and Monsters by Emily Roberson, Paperback
True stories/biographies
You never truly know what’s going on in other people’s lives until you read about it.
A book that truly made me cry😭. It’s written by a man who grew up in a hard household and showcases every emotion that he felt. My heart goes out to him❤️
A Child Called It: One Child's Courage
I’m a massive Motorsport fan and love reading about the technical aspects of it! Newey goes so in depth about everything but says it in a way that’s easily understood!!
How to Build a Car: The Autobiography of the World's Greatest Formula 1 Designer
Such a lighthearted/comical book that really delves into somewhat depressing parts of Josh Sudquist’s life. I’m a huge fan of his and everything he’s accomplished despite his physical limitations (his amputated leg).
We Should Hang Out Sometime: Embarrassingly, a true story
Magazines/Graphic Novels
Who doesn’t love a good picture book? 🤷🏻♀️
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to get into formula 1! It goes in depth on the amazing drivers and team principles through f1 history!!
Time Magazine Special Formula 1 Comes to America 2025
SOO GOOD! I’m a huge DC nerd so I’ve read my fair share of red hood comic. This one is definitely one of my favorites!!
Red Hood and the Outlaws Vol. 1: REDemption (The New 52)
Dystopian
Classic dystopian books that everyone needs to read!
That early 2010s dystopian boom really hit the mark on The Hunger Games! It’s an incredible series that could last decade due to each character being written so in depth!!
The Hunger Games Book Series
Another great series with amazing film adaptations! Each book is so captivating while still being realistic (as realistic as it can be when the entire world has been scorched and they are now in a literal maze).
Maze Runner Book Series
