Hi there. Here are my recommendations-
- The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides- psychological thriller
- Open When by Dr Julie Smith- mental health
- The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank- autobiography, history, war literature
- Freida McFadden books- psychological thriller
- Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur- poetry and prose

Thanks!
@SpacetimeScribe
Your welcome. Let m e know if you like any of them🤍
@cheerfulKiwi1776 what's Six of Crows about?
@trueconfidant123
Oh my! Six of crows is amazing!
Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo is a dark, fast-paced fantasy heist novel that follows Kaz Brekker, a ruthless 17-year-old criminal mastermind in the corrupt city of Ketterdam. Kaz is hired for an impossible mission: break into the Ice Court—an impenetrable military stronghold—to rescue a scientist who holds the secret to a terrifyingly addictive power-enhancing drug. To pull off the break-in, Kaz puts together a crew of six deadly outcasts and misfits, each with their own secret pasts, unique skills, and personal motives. Driven by high-stakes action, brilliant plot twists, and unforgettable character dynamics, the story keeps you on the edge of your seat as the crew battles impossible odds and ultimate betrayals.
I know i know. It seems boring. Trust me... its not. Search it up see some comments. You ll love this🍃
@cheerfulKiwi1776

@cheerfulKiwi1776
OMG I love ALL of those books (except for 1, which I haven't read, but I DID read shadow and Bone)
@RayniDayAmbience
Yayyyy which one havent you read?
@cheerfulKiwi1776
I love your taste in books 😮
@ACozyBunny
Thankss. I m currently reading caraval. What books do you readdd
@SpacetimeScribe I just finished the audiobook of The Woman With The Cure by Lynn Cullen. It's about a woman who worked on curing Polio in the 1940s. I love a bit of science history but the love story made it really charming as well.
MaddAddamm trilogy by Margaret Atwood. They are by far my favorite books. If you like dystopia, she's the bomb.
@SpacetimeScribe
Hi, I have also been trying to read more and am almost done with Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy. If you can handle gritty western violence and profound prose, than it's one of the best books I have ever read. Also just finished Pet Semetary and that was a wonderful and haunting read.
@discreetSky1761
Non-English native here, tried Blood Meridian once in English and was very hard to follow, I have to say. Other McCarthy books I loved, really like No Country for Old Men (I've never seen the movie!)
Anything King is great, Pet Sematary is one of his best.
It is true that book is written in a way that is difficult to follow along with. English is my first language and I certainly found myself rereading paragraphs or even whole chapters sometimes. I actually need to read his other books, especially No Country for Old Men. The movie is amazing and I’m sure the book is better.
@SpacetimeScribe
Hey :)
1) Tomes & Tea series by Rebecca Thorne (cozy fantasy)
2) Bookshops & Bonedust, Legends & Lattes, Brigands & Breadknives by Travis Baldree (cozy fantasy)
3) Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne (sci-fi, adventure)
4) The Skulduggery Pleasant series by Derek Landy (it might be a bit "young", but the books become more mature as the character ages, kind of like the Harry Potter books did - they're pretty good. Dark fantasy)
hello!! id recommend “strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert L. Stevenson”!! gothic novella :)
@SpacetimeScribe if you wanted to read something dystopian I recommend 1984 by George Orwell
@pluckyPerson6290 oh also Freefall by Tom Read, he was a paratrooper but went down a dark mental spiral thingy it's really good though
The Fault In Our Stars- John Green. absolutely
A Street Cat Named Bob, by James Bowen
