BOOK RECS~

[an_ardent_rain]

I'm dying for something new and awesome to read! Anybody have anything they've loved recently? Feel free to share any and all recs! I'm totally up for any genre, but totally comment if you want recs for something specific. Maybe I/someone can suggest a book you've never read!

Recently it's been The Book Thief
and also the book Will Grayson & Will Grayson

I've heard good things about The Book Thief from several people. It's been checked out at the library for the past three months, unfortunately. Either it keeps getting put on hold or I just miss it.

I'll definitely check out Will Grayson & Will Grayson, thanks!

I can't say enough good things about The Night Circus which was beautiful and haunting and I want to read it again! It's in the Fantasy genre (because of magic) but I think people who don't like fantasy might still enjoy it.

I'm currently reading Phoenix Rising: A Ministry of Peculiar Occurences novel which is part of the steampunk genre.

Next on my shelf is Lover Reborn (part of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series) and if you don't mind a slightly different take on vampires but enjoy steamy romance, this might just be the series for you!

Ahh, all three sound very intriguing. Especially the steampunk novel. Definitely going to have to check all of those out. :D

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green!!! IT WAS SO AMAZING! I would literally have to take breaks just to let all the meaning sink in...so good.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower was very good too.

I've never read The Fault in Our Stars, but I continually hear good things about it! XD Will definitely have to check it out.

I actually perused a copy of The Perks of Being a Wallflower that my friend had quite a few years ago, but I was... kinda disappointed by it? XD That's my own fault, though; I always want books like that, about shy people or anxious people or even sometimes really introverted people, to be something I can relate to, but I almost never can, which takes away a lot of the enjoyment for me. :( Which I do realize is massively unfair of me... Ahh ha. Maybe I'll have to try it again and give it a real chance! It seems really interesting, and like something I'd enjoy reading, which is why I picked it up in the first place.
