This week, The Broke and the Bookish is asking us the top ten books people have told us we HAVE to read, but I feel like I don’t get that many books pushed on me (Lies of Locke Lamora and Mistborn/All B-Sands aside…). So these are the books that I demand others must read. I expect all of these books to make you cry, with the exception of one or two.
- After I Do by Taylor Jenkins Reid: such an amazing portrayal of relationships – a MUST read for everyone, but a MUSTMUST read for anyone who is married or in a long term relationship.
- Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta: tough to get into, but the payoff completely changes everything (like your whole entire life).
- Dangerous Girls by Abigail Haas: Not optional
- Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett: the apocalypse, according to Gaiman? Marvelous and hysterical.
- Open Road Summer by Emery Lord: perfect remedy for your end of summer blues.
- Nowhere But Home by Liza Palmer: have snacks and tissues handy
- Daughter of Smoke and Bone Trilogy by Laini Taylor: the most terrific, gorgeous series.
- MAGGIE STIEFVATER: all of it. Read it all. The Scorpio Races is a dreamy masterpiece, The Raven Cycle is the other most terrific gorgeous series, The Wolves of Mercy Falls is, yes, werewolves, but werewolves you actually want to read about.
- Ready Player One by Ernest Cline: a MUST for fans of the genre, and a MUSTMUST for video game fans.
- Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Saenz: Absolutely stunning tale and beautiful, beautiful writing.
This is only the tip of the iceberg on book I’m prepared to push, so hit me with the books I need to read (like I don’t already have enough haha!).
