@@deisyc6756 sure I have two recommendations for you the first is the hex by jenni fagan Hex is a visceral depiction of what happens when a society is consumed by fear and superstition, exploring how the terrible force of a king's violent crusade against ordinary women can still be felt, right up to the present day. And it’s fast paced only 107 pages number 2 is In memoriam by Alice Winn A haunting, virtuosic debut novel about two young men who fall in love during a time of war. It's 1914, and World War I is ceaselessly churning through thousands of young men on both sides of the fight. It’s heart wrenching and is a must read and it’s on par with becoming a classic!!

If you want literary fiction, read "what you are looking for is in the library" by Michiko Aoyama! It is basically 5 short stories that are all interconnected and have these little life lessons. It is really wholesome ♡ Edit: Oh and the hardcover is bright pink

@squidwardtentacles7144 7 ай бұрын

"The Push" is actually a good book, but I rated it pretty low when I read it because it was falsely avdertsied. People were going around saying that it was a thriller so I read it as one. Had no idea it was a literary fiction piece or I would've rated it differently. There is a thriller called "The Perfect Child" by lucinda berry and it's basically the thriller version of "The Push". Very good, too!
