This book is 10/10. I had no idea what to expect and honestly grabbed it because of how cute the cover is. I will read more books by her because this one is in my top 10 books for sure

Loved this one mainly because of the setting. It being on a cruise ship made it unique to any other book I’ve read
The Last One: Dean, Will

Can’t lie I definitely judged this one based on the cover! Read this one right before Christmas last year. Love a winter themed book. In my top 10 and I read this one in three days! ❄️☃️

Everyone talks about The Only One Left, but I liked this one better! It was the classic trope of the woman who is bored and starts spying on her neighbors 🕵🏻‍♀️

This one is about a famous painter who ends up in a mental hospital. She works closely with a criminal psychotherapist named Theo, who is having a very hard time cracking her shell. This book is awesome. You’ll love this one if you normally like thri...

This one was a big change for me in writing style! Definitely not as easy to read but I liked a little bit of a challenge. Chose this one because I really wanted to watch the movie, but of course I had to read the book first!
American Psycho: Bret Easton Ellis

This book is so good and the movie just came out! It kept me on my toes the whole time. I never see anyone talk about this one, so I figured I’d give it a try. I’m so glad I did
The Long Walk: Stephen King

Memoir

This genre grows on me the older I get. Having a look into other people’s past is so interesting and eye opening. It also helps you remember that you never know what someone is going through! I love learning from other’s experiences

Wow. I watched iCarly growing up so this was a shock to me. Very sad and could definitely be triggering. This is also in my top 10 books for sure

This book is very triggers but wow is it eye opening. I cannot believe someone could treat a child this way. Made me sick to my stomach but I did finish it in one day. Very short and quick read.

Self-Help/Health

All things from mental health to gut health. Love learning more about my body and ways to improve my every day life. Definitely not my favorite genre but can still be interesting 😝

This book actually showed up to my house from Amazon even though I did not order it! Funny coincidence because I am so into gut health mainly because of its connection to acne. This book is very informative and kept my attention. Not just info dump, ...

This one is not as exciting but very important information. Still influences my life every day
The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

Romance

I do not love very sappy romance so you most likely won’t find that here. Most of the time it’s romance mixed in with a little thriller/horror too ❤️

Rom com/fantasy/young adult. This book is awesome! It’s so unique and unlike anything else I’ve ever read. More young adult side but definitely recommend!
Layoverland: Gabby Noone

Tried to not go with the trend and avoid this book. I shouldn’t have! I was late to reading this but oh my gosh it was good. The movie was not as good as the book but I was very excited to see it after reading this!
It Ends with Us: Colleen Hoover

Okay… this one is pretty sappy, but oh my gosh it’s good! I read the whole series within three months. This was way before the Netflix series. If you want to watch the Netflix series I recommend reading the series first! 🦋
