What types of books do u generally enjoy or read?

After 3 months of non-stop travel, I’m craving nothing more than cozying up at home with books, music, and way too much Dota this April. Snagged a couple at my local bookstore today.

1. THE LITTLE LIAR by Mitch Albom:

Currently reading this WWII story. Albom’s a master at emotional depth (if you haven’t read Tuesdays with Morrie, drop everything). Holocaust themes are heavy, but his writing makes you feel seen.

2. THE BURNOUT by Sophie Kinsella:

Never read her before (rom-coms aren’t my usual), but the vibes called to me, especially since I’m daydreaming about Hawaii again. Hoping for a light, fun escape!

3. BRITT-MARIE WAS HERE by Fredrik Backman:

Only Backman book I haven’t read yet, no idea why I waited! His characters are like old friends, so I’m hyped to meet Britt-Marie.

4. THE GOD OF THE WOODS by Liz Moore

Bought this last year but haven’t had time. It’s a “slow burn suspense novel” about family secrets. Big book, so saving it for a rainy weekend when I can really sink in.

5. HOMESEEKING by Karissa Chen

Shanghai born author and immigrant story. Can’t wait for the cultural nods and emotional layers.

Anyone read these yet? Should I tackle Backman’s quirky charm first or dive into the heavy Albom? Or maybe start with the Hawaii-themed rom-com to manifest a trip? Let me know your thoughts!

I typically read thriller/horror/mystery type books but I recently started reading more romance novels as well! A local author published a new installment to her hockey romance series, so I bought it just to support a local creator and ended up loving the book!

I really love contemporary romance and sci-fi fantasy but truthfully any book that I fall in love with is added to the favorites
