items Let’s face it. Reading is so important, and popular. However, it’s been over 20 years and I still can’t make it habit. Therefore, I’ve provided to you my list of books that I genuinely could not put down.
Don’t be fooled, I’ve always been a “movies...
Classic. And you’re probably thinking, “oh great, another person who hops on bandwagons for books” and you’re absolutely right. Lol. There’s a reason this book went viral.
Fourth Wing|Hardcover
1
I first read this years ago, and found that I immediately purchased the entire series. That’s how you know the book is good.
Daughter of the Pirate King (Daughter of the Pirate King Series #1)|Paperback
Another extremely well done fantasy novel. There are three books in the series, I own all three in paperback. If you grew up on Korean mythology, avatar the last air bender, or league of legends, you might not be able to put this book down.
Prophecy (Dragon King Chronicles Series #1)|eBook
Super interesting concept. Really loved the book. My best friend named her cat Morpheus lol
The Sandman Book One|Paperback
You’ve probably noticed a lot of older book recs on this list. I know. Again, I’m a non reader. This book wasn’t meant to be horror, I think it’s more of a thriller but it still creeped me out for a while. Awesome read though, couldn’t put it down on...
The Name of the Star (Shades of London Series #1)|Paperback
This author and their murder stories, man. Hits everytime
Truly Devious (Truly Devious Series #1)|Paperback
I usually include the first book of a series but this is #4, and it’s just too good. Highly recommend watching the movie after, it’s very well done in comparison to the novel!
The Case of the Peculiar Pink Fan (Enola Holmes Series #4)|Paperback
If I had a dime for everytime I saw this book with a different illustration on the cover.
I specifically really like this book, I think as the movies went on, more and more details were missed. If you haven’t read any Harry Potter movies, you must b...
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Harry Potter Series Book #6)|Paperback
Pretty sure I own most of this series. The old covers, of course. This is a really good beginner read, I’ve revisited it like three times in the last 14 years.
The Lightning Thief (Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series #1)|Paperback
Awe man, super cheesy, feel good. Feels like all of those coming-of-age teen movies like “the fault in our stars” or Stranger Things. Whatever, you get me.
Better Than the Movies|Paperback
You’re probably wondering why there’s so many murder books on here, and I don’t have an explanation. Love me a book with plot twists, more recent read too.
A Good Girl's Guide to Murder: Deluxe Edition|Paperback
The first book to EVER make me cry. It’s a story of determination, life, and innocence. I read it in one sitting and haven’t been able to read it again because it’s just so gut wrenching.
Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes|Paperback
