Must Read Books for Teen Girls!

#bookrecs #bookrecomendations #books #romance #philosophy

I tried to do a short summary for those who are unsure of if they should read them or not😁↓↓↓

💙Call Me By Your Name:

A young boy named Elio falls in love in the Italian country side and explores the beauty of living and the price of it, too.

🏺Circe:

Circe lives years in darkness despite her father being the Titan of the sun. She dares gods and fights fate for the chance to be more than her fathers daughter.

☀️The Alchemist:

A young shepherd is ready to live a comfortable life and settle down in the Spanish country side. Although, he soon finds that wherever you are the world has a language, and a formidable journey that awaits him.

💔Girl In Pieces:

Charlie has so many broken parts that she feels like she'll never be able to be whole. Without her own support system, she struggles against addiction and grief as she tries to build a life of her own from scratch.

🪉The Song Of Achilles:

In a world of wrathful gods and war-torn kingdoms, Achilles is destined to be the greatest warrior of his generation. When he meets Patroclus, an exiled prince, they are both willing to give everything to be by each other's side. When fate brings them to Troy, they decide to fight for themselves, and for Achilles' legacy.
