I'm a reader. Big time. I'm typically reading 3-4 books at a time (being an English Lit. major in college, I was basically reading 5 novels (typically of the classic, boring kind) a week, so it's sort of how I need to read nowadays). Some books I love, like LOVE. Others? Meh. Here's a list of the books I LOVE. Maybe you'll find a few you like!
I'm going to break this out by genre, to make it easier for you to pick and choose.
Chick Lit
- The first and classic (in my opinion), Bridget Jones' Diary (Fielding)
- Jemima J (Green)
- Little Earthquakes (Weiner)
- Good in Bed (Weiner)
- Watermelon (Keyes)
- Something Blue (Giffin)
- In Her Shoes (Weiner)
- Anybody Out There? (Keyes)**
Mystery
- Gone Girl, Sharp Objects, Dark Places (all by Gillian Flynn)
- DaVinci Code, Angels & Demons (Dan Brown)
