Books I Enjoyed that Were Outside My Comfort Zone

(or books you’d like to read that are outside your comfort zone!)

• Middle of the Night by. Riley Sager – I kept seeing this author’s book around and I finally read one and did enjoy it. Will definitely try out more of his books.
• Hekate: The Witch by. Nikita Gill – I really enjoyed this book and I didn’t think I would because it is written like poetry with some paragraphs for other chapters. So I didn’t think I’d like it because I don’t usually read poetry.
• Alchemised by. SenLinYu – this is a long book and super hyped so I am intimidated by it a little. I’m not afraid of how long it is but I was just afraid I’d be disappointed because the hype is so strong.

• Coldwire by. Chloe Gong– I love Chloe Gong but Sci-Fi isn’t a genre I usually pick up so I was hesitant going into this one and I enjoyed it – even though there was a lot of tech words to process. 😅
• Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by. Grady Hendrix – I haven’t read anything from this author yet but definitely want to! Leave me any recs for which book I should read in the comments.
• Bat Eater and Other Names for Cora Zeng by. Kylie Lee Baker – I love this author and have read all her books and I thought this was so different in what I’ve read from her before (fantasy). So Bat Eater is horror and out of my element but I loved it.

• Katabasis by. R.F. Kuang – it’s VERY academic and I had to process a lot of information but I enjoyed it a lot.
• Coffin Moon by. Keith Rosson – it’s horror (and I don’t do a lot of horror) and the villain is a psychopath but the heroes in this story had such an amazing story, I loved this book.
• As Long as the Lemon Trees Grow by. Zoulfa Katouh – a book about living in Syria during a civil war – this book broke my heart.

Satisfying Book Series

 (Maybe all the books were amazing or there wasn’t any second book syndrome or the final book wrapped everything up soooo perfectly.)

1. So far so good with this series! This is the Wolf King series and there are only two books in it so far but I am kind of obsessed!

2. I LOVE this series – The Crowns of Nyaxia and book five is coming next year!

3. Obsessed with this young adult series – Legendborn. I can’t wait for book four!

4. ACOTAR is one of my favorite series – but I wish the next book would come out already.

5. I love The Little Thieves series! Each book was so good.

6. The Poppy War series is one that will stay in my mind forever.

7. I love Jude and Cardan’s story in The Folk of the Air series.

8. The Crimson Moth was a satisfying duology!

9. The Hungers Games series – Of course I read the first 3 books so long ago, but the fact that years later we are still getting new books is kind of amazing. I didn’t love The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes but I loved Sunrise on the Reaping!

10. To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before was such a satisfying YA romance in a time when I was reading this genre. I’m a bit older now and have kind of moved away from YA romance – I read some here and there, but it’s usually YA fantasy/romance.
