Books that stuck with me 📖✨

📘 Poison for Breakfast by Lemony Snicket

A strange little book that feels like sitting across from a mysterious old man in a foggy café who hands you a note that says you’ve been poisoned—and then tells you to go live your life anyway. It’s philosophical, dryly funny, and full of the kind of melancholy that makes you feel a little more alive. One of my fav books of all time 💛

🏛️ The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson

This nonfiction thriller reads like a gothic novel. Set during the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago, it weaves the brilliant architecture of the fair with the chilling true crimes of a serial killer operating in its shadow. It’s haunting, elegant, and meticulously detailed. 🖤

🗡️ Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

Assassins, magic, betrayal, and slow-burn romance—this series kicks off with a deadly competition and only gets more epic from there. It’s a classic “girl with a sword” fantasy but layered with court politics, dark secrets, and emotional layers 💙
