Book Club | Reads to Start With

I am an absolute book junkie and I am passionate about my favorite books! That being said, my taste in lit is all over the place. I like to switch between reading serial killer thrillers, to romantic comedy type books, and occasional historical fiction. I plan to share with you what I'm reading currently and my book reviews, but for now, here are some of my all time faves: 

The Guernsey and Literary Potato Peel Society- This is not a very well known book but it is my FAVORITE BOOK OF ALL TIME (thanks for sending this to me, Grandmother)!! One of the only books I will re-read. I am up to 3 times ;) It is in the format of letters written back and forth between several people at the time of the Holocaust. It's a feel good read (despite being during a tragic time period). The characters are so relatable- definitely one of those books where you feel really attached to the characters, and have a "reading hangover" when you finish (or am I the only person who gets those...?)

The Hypnotist's Love Story- I will read anything by Liane Moriarty. I always get so sucked into her characters and story. I've read all of her books and this is my absolute favorite- you get the perspective of both the new girlfriend, and the crazy, stalker ex-girlfriend of one man. And you will want to be best friends with BOTH of them!

Helter Skelter- Um yeah, total detour here. This is a nonfiction account written by the prosecutor of Charles Manson and the other members of the Manson Family. It's creepy and intriguing: everything you want out of a book! Also can't wait to read The Girls, a novel based on the female members of the Manson family.

The Catcher in the Rye- This is my favorite "classic" (and the only assigned book in high school that I actually read). Follow Holden Caulfield for three days around NYC; you're sure to connect with this coming of age tale. I'm currently reading another novel by Salinger- Franny and Zooey. I'll post a review when I finish it! 

We Were Liars - See if you can guess the ending on this one... I definitely didn't. There's just  something fascinating about books that feature wealthy families with big secrets.. don't you agree?
