Books that broke me
Books that pulled hard on my emotions but they now live rent free in my head forever!
It's a rollercoaster of emotions and the first book that made me cry and give me a book hangover!
Archer's Voice
A book about something that is often overlooked - working women in war. Such a beautiful read.
The Women
One of my favourite military romances, within the brother's best friend trope. Completely took my emotions!
The Last Letter
This was a tough read but oh my gosh it was worth it. Brilliant book.
A Little Life
Reminiscent of "Room" and "Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, this was a rollercoaster of emotions
Strange Sally Diamond
A beautiful story set in two timelines between the UK and Cyprus
The Island of Missing Trees
A book of finding oneself, heartbreak, and more - based on David Copperfield.
Demon Copperhead
One of the first non fiction I read that absolutely broke my heart. It is tough going to read, but I think it's one of those you should read.
A Child Called It
An ethereal story of finding happiness again with a little help from beyond the grave.
Watch Over Me
Based on a true story, an account of life within slavery. Incomprehensible and heartbreaking.
Twelve Years a Slave

I loved this story about a traveling library and how books can bring a community together.

Fabulous Feminist Fiction
Feminist fiction that will make you feel proud to be female
I've read this twice now and loved it both times. Spanning 3 generations of women and their battles with men
Weyward
I "got it" more the second time around, lots of hidden feminism in this one - watch the TV show to really see it in action too!
The Handmaid's Tale (Movie Tie-in)
A transformative journey of resilience, redemption, and love - also a fabulous piece of Black women's literature.
The Color Purple: A Novel
Cozy Fantasy books if you don't like High Fantasy
I can't seem to get on with high fantasy, but give me cosy fantasy and I get lost right in that world!
TikTok made me do it! My introduction to cozy fantasy and to a world of found family creatures

Magical cozy fantasy about a secret spellshop and its owners. A great one to get lost in!
