Although I'm not your avid reader, I do enjoy books as a side hobby. I tend to read poetry, war books and random books that I just picked up because I skimmed through and yes--I judged it's cover, but they all lead to some amazing reads. So, if you're looking for a book to read for fun, then I've got a few for you:
1. Nightengale by Kristin Hannah
This book is hands down my favorite book. I had to read it for my senior year high school English class but totally fell in love with it. The back story of it is basically sisters during World War II, but it has a take on both of the girls as they have different memories from the war. Also, no lie, I cried at the end, and I throw it at anyone asking for a good book; I have no shame.
2.The Sun and Her Flowers by Rupi Kaur
If you love poetry and Rupi, then you should totally go for this book. It comes after Milk and Honey but is just as beautiful as it.
3. The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls
To be totally honest, I had to read this book in school, skimmed the first part, didn't really pay attention until one day I finally decided to! I ended up rereading it and is now one of my favorite books today. You should definitely give this one a read.
4. To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Again, I had to read this due to school, but I loved this book. If you haven't read it for school or a project, I 100% recommend this book; you have to read it.
5. Fault In Our Stars by John Green
Beautiful book and a beautiful movie, I cried again. It happens.
6. Sarah's Key by Tatiana De Rosnay
Sarah's Key is again about World War II and also made me cry. The story is told by a present-day journalist who has to write about the day of Vel' d'Hiv' in France. The story is told also told from two different point of views, which makes the story super interesting.
7. Catch 22 by Joseph Heller
Although I haven't read this book myself, my roommate absolutely loves it! It's next on my reading list.
8. Animal Farm by George Orwell
This book is told in a non-conventional way-- by animals but gets the point across. Also, you should check out 1984 By George Orwell which is another one of his books.
9. Harry Potter by J.K Rowling
I had to add it.
10. The Outsiders
Suprise, I also had to read this for school but I have reread this book multiple times, and I love it more and more each time I read it. Stay gold Ponyboy.
