The Fine Print by Lauren Asher, Paperback
An easy read to remind you it's never too late to find the people for you.
Miracle by Danielle Steel
A delightful collection of short stories. SO incredibly well-written, perfect to get one out of a reading slump.
Interpreter of Maladies by Jhumpa Lahiri
Truly an incredible book to learn more about the art of manifesting, self love, and ourselves. King's writing is easy to follow, and incredible if you've started exploring self-help books.
Good Vibes, Good Life by Vex King
Ugh, I love a fake dating trope! This is a beauty of a romance book! Enemies to lovers, grumpy X sunshine, one bed, and soooo much more!

After seeing the film adaptation, I HAD to checkout the novel! So much to love, I adore a rom-com.

Iris has a very special place in my heart! The Fine Print remains my favorite in the series, but I do adore Terms and Conditions!
Terms and Conditions (Dreamland Billionaires, #2) by Lauren Asher
FORBIDDEN LOVE!! Ana Huang, the best in the game. Such an easy read. “I love it when you dance. But only with me”.

Conversations with Friends by Sally Rooney
An incredible and insightful novel to start the new year. If you were looking for a personal rebrand in 2026, this is an excellent place to start!
101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think - Brianna Wiest
An emotional roller coaster! This is truly such a beautiful novel. I read it for the first time in my first year of high school, and it has stuck with me. 10/10 recommend!
Me Before You by Jojo Moyes
This list wouldn't be complete without a Harry Potter book. Up for debate… but dare I say, Goblet of Fire is the best in the series?
Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire
Exceptionally done, also a novel I believe won't take long to read! Definitely a possible single-sitting-read
Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn
I would LOVE a film adaptation of this novel! This is an excellent novel, and you get a bit of everything, a definite 10/10 recommendation .
