Hello again! I’m glad that you are here because that probably means that you enjoy books as much as I do! This topic makes me so excited. I could literally talk about books allllll day! No joke.
So in today’s post, I’m going to go over some books that I absolutely enjoyed reading so much to the point that I lost sleep. They were that good. I’ll be going over a couple of different genres as well to fit everyone’s reading scale. I personally love thrillers, mysteries, and romance. I find that I gravitate to those topics more, but I love stepping out of my comfort zone as well and trying new topics.
Ok, so my first four are a series that I loved so much I didn’t want to finish reading them. Have you ever loved a book or trilogy so much that you did not want to finish because you were going to miss the impact it had on you when you were done with it? Please say yes so that it’s not awkward lol Awesome, so yeah that was definitely the case with these books. I could not recommend them enough!
- Red Queen
This series is listed in the young adult fantasy genre authored by Victoria Aveyard. This is the first book in the series and let me tell you… I was hooked. I love my sleep, but it was really hard to put this book down at night to get some rest. It kept me guessing and introduced me to a totally different world than I have read about before. It’s about a girl named Mare who lives in a poor village basically because her blood is red. That makes her common rather than having “supernatural” abilities.
- Glass Sword
This is the second book to the series! It picks up exactly where the first one left off. It continues through the perspective of a young girl named Mare Barrow who is just trying to survive in a world that couldn’t be more against her. She has to learn to deal with the loss of love and ultimate betrayal.
- King’s Cage
This is the third book in the series, and at this point I was sleep deprived. This series was very hard to predict. There are so many twists and turns that it keeps surprising you. This particular book begins to show you perspectives from different characters. I love when authors choose this style of writing. I think it is really awesome that they offer you a look into the thoughts of different characters! I feel like it just spices things up a bit. Especially in romantically involved characters!
- War Storm
This is the fourth and final book of the series. I was so sad to be reading the last book! This one also dives into different character’s perspectives, which again, I love! It has a whole lot of betrayal, love, and self discovery. I loved this series so much, and I couldn’t recommend it more. If you liked “The Hunger Games” or “Divergent” you would most likely love this series as well. With that being said, it will be like nothing you have read before. It is so unique but absolutely amazing!
If I happened to have persuaded you to read this awesome series then this set is also offered as a whole, which is possibly cheaper depending on if you prefer paperback or hardcover!
- The Chemist
The author of this novel is Stephanie Meyer, who is best known for her “Twilight” series. She is an amazing author and it really shows in this well-written thriller/suspense novel. This book is about a woman on the run from the government because she knows too much. She never stays in one place and always checks over her shoulder. She is forced to change her identity to better her chances of not getting caught. Thrillers definitely excite me, and this one did not disappoint!
- The Obsession
So I’m not gonna lie, I was obsessed with this book from the beginning! . Seriously, some books are a slow start for me. I really have to push through those first few chapters to get to the part that really hooks me in. That wasn’t at all the case with this book. It is a suspense thriller that keeps you on edge. I love a good murder mystery that is unpredictable, and I gotta say the ending completely got me. I also love that I gained some knowledge through this book on a psychological level. Now, to get down to it, this book is written by Nora Roberts. It is about a girl named Naomi who is a photographer that is just trying to to escape a childhood nightmare that is her past. There is murder, suicide, new begginings, and Romance. I mean what else could you ask for to make up an epic novel?
- The Sister
For my final recommendation, I have a psychological thriller written by Louise Jenson. I thoroughly enjoyed this book all the way through. It is a story about friendship, family, secrets, and regret. The story line is different from any book that I have ever read. Its about a girl named Grace who misses her best friend, Charlie, that has passed. She meets a girl that claims she is Charlie’s sister and everything starts going south from there. I have no doubt that you will enjoy this book if mysteries and thrillers are your thing. It definitely kept me guessing, and the ending is a real twist that I absolutely did not see coming!
I hope that if you choose to purchase one of my book recommendations that you truly enjoy them like I have. I absolutely love to be able to get lost in a book when there is too much going on in my day to day. If you have any questions about this post, don’t hesitate to comment or email me! I would love to communicate with you guys!
Sincerely,
Vanna
