Wild did it for me. It had been sitting on my shelf for ages and one day I picked it up and started reading. Sometimes, the right book finds you exactly when you need it.

If you’re a fan of fifty shades trilogy I would recommend the Ethan Frost trilogy. If you like fantasy I’d recommend the Mistborn trilogy. If you want fantasy mix with romance I’d recommend starting with Kylie Chan’s White Tiger — it’s a series and I’ve reread the trilogies a few times now. Highly recommend!

Johnny Got his Gun is a great book about the casualties of war. Very much a protest book, it gets into the human side of the people who are affected by war. The author went to prison because of McCarthyism.

Brothers Karamazov. The masterpiece of the century that is always contested as the best literature of all time. The inner struggles of identity and futility of love and faith at the face of the ultimate truth cannot be portrayed more vividly and powerfully than Dostoevsky’s story of 3 brothers of a scoundrel.

Tiny Beautiful Things by Cheryl Strayed ❤️
I am a reader and a bookseller and i regularly recommend this book by explaining it is a series of advice columns: folks in crisis wrote to strayed and her replies are raw and gorgeous and insightful essays on what it means to be cracked open by love and the human condition. I have had three folks come back to me with tears in their eyes thanking me.

@Bethany it’s a collection of her advice columns so at times it feels like a bit of a memoir but it is like nothing else out there really. It rebuilt my heart ❤️

I agree. Reading that book made me a better American. It was my first time contemplating the experience of being biracial and it expanded my thinking. People don’t have to be one or the other. They can have multiple identities and that’s okay.
