BookTok that went viral on social media
Do you prefer your literature to be beautiful, devastating, or just slightly deranged? Why choose? This curated list is designed for the emotionally adventurous reader who believes a good book should require at least three business days of recovery time.
We've gathered a delightful selection that will take you from the brutal, muddy reality of medieval cults (Lapvona) to the four-decade emotional marathon of modern friendship (A Little Life). For the sake of your sanity, we’ve included a quick trip through a cozy, magical inn to serve as a palate cleanser, before dropping you back into a world where Death narrates the story.
Consider this your literary roller-coaster: a high-effort, high-reward lineup. Proceed with caution, and ensure your preferred therapist is on speed dial. The quality of the prose is guaranteed; your emotional stability is not.
