Since I got a new phone recently, I’ve had to remake my list of favorite books I’ve read cause it got deleted in the transfer of data or whatever🫠 but anyway, it made me want to share some of my fav book recommendations. Something literally no one asked for but I want to do🫶🤭 *disclaimer, if u decide to read any of these books, pls pls pls check trigger warnings first, and look into what they’re about. I’m not including it here cause I don’t want to accidentally forget a trigger and then lead someone astray* enjoy!

- the “my brilliant friend” series by Elena Ferrante (aka the Neapolitan novels) literally the greatest series ever written and I will die on that hill. I would recommend these to everyone if I could

- my sister’s keeper by Jodi picoult (another absolute favorite until I die, I’m currently in the process of re-reading it for like the 4th time lmao)

- The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls

- I’m glad my mom died by jennette mccurdy

- Chronicle of a death foretold by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

- the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid

- Between shades of gray by ruta Sepetys

- Night by Elie Wiesel

- The Yellow wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

- the handmaids tale by Margaret Atwood (never seen the show but the book was great, everyone should read it in todays fucking political climate)

- Monkey Bridge by Lan Cao (wish I could erase this from my memory and read it again for the first time)

- The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brein

- living dead girl by Elizabeth Scott (LOTS of triggers for this one pls be careful)

- A spark of light by Jodi picoult

- the dew breaker by Edwidge Danticat

- lord of the flies by William Golding (I know we all had to read this for school but still so good)

- Doubt by John Patrick Shanley (technically a parable/play. The movie stars Meryl streep Amy adams AND viola Davis AND Phillip Seymour Hoffman. PACKED with talent😤 )

Ok I’m done:)
