Random books from very different genres I think about a lot: - And Then There Were None (Or literally any book by Agatha Christie) - The Picture of Dorian Gray - City of Brass - Books by Garth Nix (I loved them as a kid) - A series of unfortunate events - Howl's Moving Castle - Chess (Stefan Zweig) - 1984 - Shogun - The Golden Compass

Some classics I 🩶

Depending on the vibe you’re after, The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame is a favorite, so cozy and entertaining, as well as The Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings books - very near and dear to my heart and so fun to read! Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier is one of the craziest, tensest, most atmospheric books I’ve read, ever. And The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov is an absolute trip, fantastical, satirical, and feverish to the extreme. All very different from the other but each so good in their own way!
