I love all of these books a lot because they are all incredibly written. All of the authors have such a different tone but every book listed is perfect for that sunny day at the beach or boring rainy day!
Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn
A thriller novel centered around the main characters Amy and Nick Dunne. Amy frames her husband for her murder after she finds out Nick has been cheating on her, and it all goes downhill from there.
Night - Elie Wiesel
If you like biographies this is definitely the book for you. It is a harrowing true story about Wiesel's experience with his family as a Jew in World War II Germany.
Catcher In The Rye - J. D. Salinger
Holden Caulfield takes you through the days right after he is expelled from prep school. You'll develop a love-hate feeling towards him because although he is relatable at times, he can be very pretentious.
The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald
If you're into symbolism this is definitely the book for you. Also if you just want to time travel to 1920s New York City to experience the lavish culture I highly recommend this classic.
The Stranger - Albert Camus
This is the book on this list I have most recently read. It is a classic novel based on the philosophy absurdism that the protagonist Meursault follows. If you want a book that's going to make you think, this is the one.
The Longest Ride - Nicholas Sparks
My favorite Nicholas Sparks book by far. It's super cheesy but I absolutely loved it.
The Dandelion Insurrection - Rivera Sun
A book about the importance of democracy and freedom of the press. Rivera Sun incorporates metaphors that can be applied to 2018 America.
Very Good Lives - J.K. Rowling
Not the typical book when you think of author J.K. Rowling, but definitely incorporate this book into your reading list if you need words that will enlighten the soul.
The Handmaid's Tale - Margaret Atwood
This book now has a popular Hulu series based off of it. This is a dystopian novel that will make you stop and think about the future of the world.
The Legacy of Luna - Julia Butterfly Hill
A book about the importance of the environment. Hill spends time living in the Redwoods of California and discusses why the environment should be protected and cared for.
