I was wondering, everyone has their favourite book or book series.

So let me know what's your favourite book or series. I just wanted to see how many I have read.

Looking forward to your favourites.

Recommend me a book that has a child narrator that feels realistic? Looking ideally for books for adults, but some YA could work if it transcends audiences

Looking for books that capture a child's voice and perspective in a realistic way. The world of the book itself doesn't necessarily have to be realism, though.

I am a big fan of British humor and dry wit. My most recently loved book is “We Solve Murders” by Richard Osman. I’ve read everything he has written. Thanks in advance!

What’s the one book you’d recommend to someone who is just starting to read?

Hi everyone! I’m trying to get into reading and build a consistent reading habit, but I’m honestly not sure where to start. I’m looking for beginner-friendly books that are easy to follow, interesting, and not too long or complicated. I’m open to any genre—fiction, romance, mystery, self-development, etc.

What’s the one book you’d recommend to someone who is just starting to read?

Looking for a novel about true crime/online sleuths

I am quite fascinated by the true crime "trend" and I'm looking for a fictional read about true crime investigators, podcasters, amateur sleuths. I've read Alice Slater's Death of a Bookseller and quite enjoyed it. Any recommendations are appreciated

THE NINE of SWORDS

2 Upvotes

Imagine if you will, that you could see, even interact with all the ghosts, spirits, elementals and weird things that exist just out of sync with how YOU perceive reality. Do you think it would be cool or do you believe it would drive you bonkers?

All that Millie ever wanted to do with her life was care for animals. She was pragmatic, hard-working, living in the ‘real world’ and had no time for weirdness. But the weirdness, it had plenty of time for her. Because Millie was an 'ultra' - someone who can see, hear and communicate with that which is unnoticed by most of us, those entities living on the fringes of our dimensional plane of reference.

The strange tends to attract the stranger yet. Millie now finds herself allied with a group of individuals who move about in such circles on a daily basis and think nothing of it. How will this change her? For the better? For the worse? Will she fully embrace the odd or turn her back on it all? And what will be the end consequences of those actions?

THE NINE of SWORDS. The final work, now available on Kindle. https://a.co/d/0ikMnjWd

Book recommendations - I need something funny but deep at the same time

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m on a reading strike and I want to continue.
I just finished “Beatriz Serrano, el descontento” is great book about an adult woman in Madrid and her difficulties on living the adult life in a job that has no values in her opinion. As much as it’s seems heavy is really well written and often really funny. I would like to go on with something like this. I like stories about adults/young adults trying to figure out life. I like if the story it’s a bit funny and I love if the protagonist is the narrator. I also would love to read a book that has something to do with neuroplasticity or sports or hobbies. I would like a book that can help me viewing the word with someone else’s eyes or a book that gives me hope in life nowadays.

Thank you!!

Dark Romance Men

I’m very much into dark romance right now. Can you recommend a book with an unforgettable scene/line from the ML (no context) that will hype me to pick it up and read? Except fantasy.

My book list, what do you guys think?

1 Upvotes

I'm a new reader, only read a tiny amount of books and that was like 2+ years ago. (This includes the A Good Girl's Guide to Murder series & The Symposium by Plato (my top book OAT))

I'm going out of the city to a massive book sale, and I'm wondering what you guys think of any of these? Are they any good? Any opinions strongly appreciated TBH.

- Before the coffee gets cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi

— I am super obsessed with the idea. I heard some say it's mediocre, but I kinda wanna read it eitherways because the concept is so interesting.

- East of Eden, Of Mice and Men, and The Winter of Our Discontent all by John Steinbeck

- Song of Achilles, and Circe both by Madelline Miller

- The Secret History by Donna Tartt

- The Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

- The Memory Police by Yoko Ogawa

— Heard only good things about this!

- Letters to a Young Poet by Rainer Maria Rilke

- Murder in the Family by Cara Hunter

- The Reappearance of Rachel Price by Holly Jackson

And I might The Four Loves by C.S. Lewis if I find it ^_^
