[stxrrlit]

Just watched 10 Things I Hate About You for the first time and OH MY GAWD why did it take me 27 years to watch this?!!?

[flamingo-strikes]

@eyeballplanets tagged me to list either 9 of my fave books of 2023, or the 9 top books on my 2024 tbr!! thanks ella!! 🩷

I was gonna do the first question then I realized I only had 4 fave books in 2023 😭 it was SUCH a flop year lmfao

So here are 9 books on my 2024 tbr!!

1. The Mask of Mirrors by M.A Carrick. I’ve been looking for an adult fantasy series that isn’t intricate high fantasy or just romance, and this also has added elements of criminal characters, deceiving rich people, and a hot masked ml.

2. The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. I’ve wanted to read Roy for a long time.

3. Vicious by V.E Schwab. I love the idea of superpowers gone horribly wrong, and all the characters seem so interesting.

4. Pachinko by Min Jin Lee. I love historical fiction so much.

5. The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss. This one seems really fun tbh.

6. As Long As the Lemon Trees Grow by Zoulfa Katouh. Again I love historical fiction.

7. Washington Bullets by Vijay Prashad. I’ve wanted to read this for FOREVER.

8. Summer Bird Blue by Akemi Dawn Bowman. Aroace lead!!! Story about grief!! Summer vibes!!

9. Heavenly Tyrant by Xiran Jay Zhou. Granted I will def need to re-read Iron Widow again lol, but I’m so ready for this omg!!!

girlll this is coming from an art girly, i am SO for r and pat omg. lowk highkey on team pat in the future too bcs from what we’ve seen of pats and r’s relationship in the future,

“if u asked again i would’ve said yes” …erm so what i’m hearing is that you’d still be willing to say yes👀👀

compared to what we’ve seen of r and art relationship in the future like ms girl wdym “maybe u should talk abt that to ur WIFE”

like that js seemed so PETTY like sm more shit happened between them compared to what happened between pat and r yk

and the way they literally know how each other feel in terms of like “oh my parents want to live vicariously through me career wise” js seems so like UGHH like ik art and r oh first loves sappy cute wtv BUT THE WAY YOUVE WRITTEN PAT AND READER😩

idk but the way you’ve gotten a die hard art girly to vouch this hard for pat is 👩🏻‍🍳💋

honestly, i’m constantly switching sides because i came out of challengers, absolutely in love with both men so i really feel this!! 🤭🤭 although i had only seen mike faist in panic and have loved josh o’connor for years so sometimes i feel like im biased towards patrick lol

i love the art/reader dynamic so much but i feel like patrick/reader is so much more outspoken and passionate and i love them too 😭🙏🏼 we still have a lot to cover and i hope you’ll continue to enjoy the fic x

this is the sweetest thing, i’m so honoured that i have made a die hard art girly enjoy the patrick chapter so much 🩷

Your taste>>>😵💓✨⚠️

I haven’t gotten much into Spanish or South American literature, but I’ve heard that it is amazing! 😍 when I’ll see some of these books at the bookstore, I’ll definitely check them out and buy them 😄🤞🏼💯🫶🏼💛💖 There was a point in my life where I mostly read Russian lit…🌚 that was an experience😵‍💫 I especially love Russian short stories or poetry🤭💯

My recs for you (in no particular order) 🤭📚✨💯

Independent People - Halldor Laxnes (the most Icelandic book in existence, I love it so much because it talks shit about Icelanders hihi 🤭)

The Bear and The Nightingale - Katherine Arden (this book is ideal to read during winter time, the story is so captivating and I really love the main character and the folklore aspect of the story)

The Left Hand Of Darkness - Ursula K. Le Guin (feminist sci-fi anthropology book 🫶🏼)

Feed - M.T Anderson (a sad reality of what the internet and technology might do to us…😵‍💫😗✌🏼)

Jane Eyre - Charlotte Brontë (this book hit me harder than driving straight at a brick wall 200km/h. I cry like a baby every time, idk why. Jane is so relatable!)

Goodby to Berlin - Christopher Isherwood

Season of Migration of the North - Tayeb Salith (This book is so chaotic, it’s a vibe)

The Art of Loving - Erich Fromm

Love Is a Mixtape - Rob Sheffield (the music recs in this book >>>🫠)

Cosmos - Carl Sagan (therapy)

My Inventions and Other Writings - Nikola Tesla

Corruptible: Who Gets Power and How - Brian Klass (this book is so good I might love non-fiction because of it…not possible! But this book is so GOOD!)

Orlando - Virginia Wolf

The Spire - William Golding (it’s kinda boring and dry, but after reading it it sticks with you on how ego can consume people)

The Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath (woman written by a woman, also this will make you depressed)

Project Hail Mary - Andy Wier (FUNNY ASS BOOK + it’s very needy)

Master and Margarita - Mikhali Bulgakov (a masterpiece 🙀💗✨💯)

Eugene Onegin - Alexander Pushkin (poetry)

Norwegian Wood - Haruki Murakiami ( perfect example of women written by men)

And for my go-to comfort read is always the Shatter Me series (Aaron Warner is the love of my life, period 💍💯✨💗), or ACOTAR. I also like to re-read the Little Prince, Peter Pan or The Grest Gatsby when I don’t know what to read lol.

This are so many recs 🥵🤓 but I have lot more 🤭😭 I read quite a lot🌝 There are also many books, which I like, but haven’t yet been translated into English 😅🥲

Hope some of my recs would interest you 🤲🏼🤓🤗💞✨

IF anyone who wants to send in more recs, please do! 🤲🏼💖☺️🤓
