The Barbed Coil by JV Jones. Most people have never heard of it but it transforms the notions of fantasy. ^-^

The type of magic is very unique and how it is carried out. And both the good and evil character motivations are addressed in a compelling way. I don’t want to say too much in case someone wants to read it, but it is my favourite book. It’s not new which is why a lot of people haven’t heard of it, and I don’t know what to compare it to. 🙂

“Crucial Conversations.” Everyone can benefit from these skills and they would make the world a better place. I wish they would come out with a version aimed at teenagers.

“Moral Politics” by George Lakoff is also pretty good for understanding how the human mind works. I found his explanation of the different kinds of fairness very helpful, and his detailed explanation of how the metaphor of moral accounting works.

As much as I love fiction, there is no work of fiction that *everyone* will enjoy. Just because I enjoy something doesn’t mean anyone else will. “Wyrd Sisters” by Terry Pratchett is one of my favorites, but unless you love Fantasy, Shakespeare, and humor you might not enjoy it.

There are two books I really loved and recommend. The Alchemist and The Monster Calls. I teared up at The Monster Calls ending and it was such a bittersweet too beautiful of a journey. And right now I am reading ‘The boy in the striped pyjamas’. Many people said that I might need some tissues as I reach the end of the book. I can’t wait to see how much of that is true. ?

You will for sure need tissues. Lots of them.
