Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo by Christiane V. Felscherinow
A charming, heart-warming novel about a man who collects lost objects and the woman who must return them to their owners. Light magical realism woven into everyday life.
The Keeper of Lost Things by Ruth Hogan
January finds a mysterious book about magical doors leading to other worlds… and slowly realizes that these worlds might actually be real. It becomes a beautiful journey of discovering who she is and where she truly belongs. Dreamy and lyrical.
The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix E. Harrow
This is one of the softest, sweetest books I’ve read. The characters are adorable, the message is beautiful, and it genuinely made me smile. I recommend it to anyone who needs something uplifting and wholesome.
The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune
A deeply emotional story that stays with you. It follows a couple fleeing war, and even though it’s heartbreaking, it’s written with so much tenderness. I’d recommend this when you’re in the mood for something meaningful and real.
The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri
This book completely pulled me in. The moral dilemma at the center of the story is so powerful, and I kept questioning what I would do in their place. Beautiful, tragic, and unforgettable.
The Light Between Oceans by M.L. Stedman
One of the most atmospheric books I’ve ever read. The mystery, the Gothic vibe, the dark corners of Barcelona — it’s all so immersive. If you love books about secrets and forgotten stories, you’ll adore this.
The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
Such a unique blend of mystery, folklore, and romance. The setting in 1930s Malaysia is gorgeous, and the story feels dreamy and mystical. I recommend it if you want something different from your usual reads.
The Night Tiger by Yangsze Choo
Okay, this one is WILD — in the best way. It’s strange, darkly funny, and totally unpredictable. If you like books that are a bit bizarre and make you say “what is even happening?”, this is perfect.
Bunny #1 - Mona Awad
This book is slow, atmospheric, and beautifully written. I loved the mix of magic with historical New York. It’s one of those stories you sink into and enjoy the world-building as much as the plot.
The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker
If you want something fast, gripping, and twisty — this is a great pick. It kept me hooked from the first chapter, and the twist really delivers. Perfect for a weekend thriller binge.
The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
This book broke my heart in the best possible way. It’s emotional, powerful, and the story of Amir and Hassan is something you never forget. I recommend it to anyone who loves stories that make you feel deeply.
