This is a list for the poor, unsuspecting soul I used to be, the one who had no idea what true devastation, joy, or existential panic looked like until these books showed up and stomped all over my life. These are the novels I wish I could read again...
This is one of my all-time favorite series, and this book… this one might be the best of them all. I ran the gamut of emotions reading it, including throwing the book across the room at one point (no worries, I retrieved it and apologized for my fera...
Faith of the Fallen by Terry Goodkind
When I first read ACOTAR, I couldn’t believe that was what had everyone in a chokehold, but I was told “it gets better”. That was an understatement. This book completely sucked me in. I laughed, I cried, I loved with the characters. It’s cheesy to sa...
A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
This series yanked me in when I didn’t expect to enjoy it at all, and now? It’s one of my absolute favorite series. This isn’t just one book, I wish I could read them all over again for the first time. Just so good, such amazing characters.
Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
My absolute favorite book written by Stephen King. It’s a fairy tale, but it’s written by King so… definitely dark. There’s princes, magic, betrayal, and dark schemes, and likely a character you’ll recognize if you’re a fan of King’s work.
The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King
Crescent City blends modern with fantasy and flings you headfirst into a world of magic, demons, monsters, and heartbreak. The characters in this book will absolutely steal your heart. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll get angry… and then you’ll wanna...

Queen of Shadows is in the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas, and it happens to be my favorite book of the series. Our favorite protagonist returns with vengeance in her veins, secrets in her past, and enough clever, deadly charm to keep you ho...
Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas
Sunrise on the Reaping is the latest novel in the Hunger Games series, and in my mind, the most heartbreaking. This book touched my soul and then scarred it. It probably helps that Haymitch is my favorite character from the series, and while I know I...
Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins
Son of Neptune is book 2 in The Heroes of Olympus series. After having a book with no Percy and no real clue what’s happened to him, we start off back with our favorite hero, and boy is he in a lot of trouble this time. This is my favorite book of th...
The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan
My favorite Star Wars book, even if I don’t think it’s canon any longer. This is a story about Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Voss, two characters I really liked on their own, but together? This book is a lot of fun, but also… heartbreaking. These two go...
Star Wars: Dark Disciple by Christie Golden
One of my favorite books of poetry. The rest in the series are wonderful as well, but something about this one makes it resonate with me more than the others (there’s Persephone, Artemis, and Athena, I think). The poetry in here is at times light and...
