Shadow of the Wind by Zafron…
What do you normally read? Maybe I can give you some suggestions.?
You could read about something that your afraid of, like me I hate clowns but read Stephen Kings IT….I’m stil afraid/hate clowns lol
Gotta know where the comfort zone is first. Mine is the fantasy genre…
A Semi-Definitive List Of Worst Nightmares by Krystal Sutherland
I read YA and fantasy
Try a classic! Read Dracula!❤️❤️❤️
I would recommend the following books:
Lily and the Octopus
Eat, Pray, Love
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Ishmael by Daniel Quinn
Pride and Prejudice
Try an Elizabeth Berg novel. Or shake things up with some horror.
I just finished We Were the Lucky Ones by Georgia Hunter. I guarantee it will take you out of your comfort zone
You could try starting out with short story collections. Some I’ve enjoyed are:
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle,
The Whore’s Child by Richard Russo,
The Anastasia Syndrome by Mary Higgins Clark,
The Golden Ball by Agatha Christie.
I recently got a book of essays, Small Wonder by Barbara Kingsolver, which is more or less the same thing except it’s nonfiction. I haven’t read it yet but it looks interesting.
Since you are in crminal justice as well: the Alienist by Caleb Carr. It is criminal, murder, oldfashioned deduction of who did it, in NY of end 1800’s, very dark and gloomy
A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess should do the trick.
Get a genre list book report graphic organizer you can google it and then pick a genre head over to the nyt bestsellers list look up the top books in the genre you chose and randomly pick one. See what happens.
