Anyone feeling like they're in limbo....?
Constantly stuck in a loop full of habits?
Well, maybe it's time to try out a new hobby or pick up a new book because we're back with some recommendations!
Here's 3 books that everyone should read at least once.
1. The Book Thief
With a rating of 4.4 stars out of 5 and 2.6 million reviews on Goodreads, this book is most definitely at the top of the list! Here's what it is about:
"When Death has a story to tell, you listen. It is 1939. Nazi Germany. The country is holding its breath. Death has never been busier, and will become busier still. Liesel Meminger is a foster girl living outside of Munich, who scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she cant resist - books. With the help of her accordion-playing foster father, she learns to read and shares her stolen books with her neighbors during bombing raids as well as with the Jewish man hidden in her basement."
2. The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Standing strong with almost 2 million ratings and 4.2 stars out of 5 on Goodreads, this quirky but in depth book is a choice that must be made! Here's why:
"This is the story of what it's like to grow up in high school. More intimate than a diary, Charlie's letters are singular and unique, hilarious and devastating. We may not know where he lives. We may not know to whom he is writing. All we know is the world he shares. Caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it puts him on a strange course through uncharted territory. The world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends. The world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that the perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite."
3. My Sister's Keeper
This tale has gathered a million and over ratings with 4.1 stars / 5 on Goodreads, and you may have heard of it but have you read it? Take a look:
"Anna is not sick, but she might as well be. By age 13 she has undergone countless surgeries, transfusions, and shots so that her older sister, Kate, can somehow fight the leukemia that has plagued her since childhood. The product of preimplantation genetic diagnosis, Anna was conceived as a bone marrow match for Katea life and a role that she has never challenged ... until now. Like most teenagers, Anna is beginning to question who she truly is. But unlike most teenagers, she has always been defined in terms of her sisterand so Anna makes a decision that for most would be unthinkable, a decision that will tear her family apart and have perhaps fatal consequences for the sister she loves."
With only a little over two months before the year 2024 ends, let's all accomplish just a tiny bit more, maybe, by reading a book or two a month.
With that, we hope these recs were worth your time! Let us know your thoughts.
