hi, everyone! hope you all are well:)
so, here I have a wonderful list of books for people who are trying to get into reading for the first time or for those who don't know where they should start from.
hope it helps and you find a good book to relax with!
1. Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan (5 books) - MIDDLE GRADE
I bet you have already heard about it everywhere. It's everywhere on booktube, booktok, reels, and every other place you can find people talking about books.
This is the perfect series to start with if you are a fan of some mismatched children fighting together, Greek mythology, stubborn and selfish Gods (lol, literally), and epic adventures. This series, despite being middle grade, also has a lot of depth and emotional dynamics.
It's easy to get into and I promise, you will have the best time ever!
2. Firebird Series by Claudia Gray (3 books) - SCIENCE FICTION
This is a weirdly underrated series. I really loved it! It's an enemies-to-lovers story and also has some other beloved patent romance tropes. And, this series is really entertaining and is perfect for escapism!
READ IT!!
3. Sisters Of Sword And Song by Rebecca Ross (standalone) - FANTASY
This wonderful story of two sisters exploring their loyalty and love for each other will really touch your heart! It's a really easy book to get into and you will be immersed in its world immediately. It has an adventurous plot, loveable characters, and a slow burn romance which you will be rooting for since the beginning! Also, it's another underrated book that I think deserves more hype:/
I will reccomend checking out its audiobook, too, 'cause its just AMAZING!
4. Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott with Mikki Daughtry and Tobias Iaconis (standalone) - ROMANCE
PEOPLE, THIS BOOK!! This story touched by heart in a way that broke me! It is an incredibly beautiful story about two teenagers suffering from an acute lung disease and it follows their journey to face their fears while they fall in love with each other. Along with the lovely main characters, there are some amazing supporting characters! You will love this book!
5. The Guest List by Lucy Foley (standalone) - THRILLER
Again- THIS BOOK!! It literally messed up my brain! It was just so... UGH I CANT DESCRIBE THE FEELINGS! You just have to read it. NOW.
I can only say this- It is one of the best murder mystery books I have ever read.
6. The Boy In The Striped Pajamas by John Boyne (standalone) - HISTORICAL FICTION
This book is probably the saddest book I have read till date.
It is set during World War II and follows a boy who explores the grave situation of war and its effects on people. He befriends another boy who is a prisoner of war and this friendship turns out to be devastating for them. And the ending was just... heart breaking.
I assure you, this book WILL have an impact on you.
7. The Theory Of Everything by Stephan Hawking (standalone) - NON-FICTION SCIENCE
I dont have a lot to say about this book since it is non fiction. But, I will tell you: It is highly informational, insightful and really fascinating! If you have even a tiny bit of interest in the universe, read this and you will fall in love with it. It is a very short book, nonetheless, its knowledge is nowhere little. It is perfect for those who do not want to commit to a thick book or read a heavy novel.
so, that's it for the reccomendations! hope you like them and pick them up soon:)
if you read any of these, tell me what you thought about the book on my instagram (you will find the link on home page)!
thanks for reading!
love,
ashi
