Books

hi so I really just want to share some books ive been reading recently and ask people about the ones they're reading.

books I love include The Quiet At The End Of The World, Green Rising and Last Seen Online by Lauren James, lots of Non Prats's short books, Betting On You and The Do-Over by Lynn Painter, The Lie Tree by Francis Hardinge, and id love to hear what books other people like :3

also, as a side note, I want to read some Sylvia Plath (Ariel specifically) but am unsure if it's going to be too intense because of the poet's obsession with death, so reading it over the summer on my own might be too much, so would really appreciate someone to give me a clear understanding of the sort of stuff she talks about and the intensity of it. thanks hope you have a lovely day/night <3

    Hi @foxglove! Thank you for sharing this, they sound like some great recommendations. A book I've read recently that was really good was Trevor Noah's book, Born a Crime - learned a lot but also kept entertaining!

    I love this thread so much because I get to talk about my favourite thing, books!.

    So mostly I have been using my local library to get books out my desk is full of books and my bookshelf is. I'm a book ban lol 😂. I got some books on forensic science which is a secret passion/hobby of mine, I find the process of it fascinating. I also got a book written by Juno Dawson called Wonderland and another by the creator of five nights of freddys himself it's the first book in the series called Silver Eyes. I can't remember the name of the author, Scott Cawthorn rings a bell......

    Just need to actually read them and get motivated because my focus is eeslly bad atm 😂 I can't sit through a chapter of a book before doing something else.
    Just a person who likes pop culture and films
