Hey @RavenclawFan, yes saw 2 duplicate posts for this one, and removed them, as duplicate content in multiple forums isn't allowed!^^

Now yaya books, I've trying to build a reading habit too! What kind of genre do you like? :D

I'm mostly into fiction, self help, to name a few!

Sooo I'd definitely recommend the cliche (but very well deserved one lol) The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho!

@RavenclawFan

What genres do you read? If you enjoy thriller, The Silent Patient is a good book.

@RavenclawFan my favourite book ever is the secret history. it's from the perspective of a man named richard who joins a college class of ancient greek students, all of them totally different from one another and isolated from the rest of the school. the first half of the book builds up to the event that leads to their classmate Bunny's murder (this isnt a spoiler btw, it's talked about in the prologue), and the second half of the book details the fallout of everyone's minds after the murder. its so so good I could recommend it more!

another one you should read is talented mr ripley. it's about a man named tom ripley who is asked by a rich buisnessman to travel to italy to convince the man's son to return to the US. however, tom has an obsessive personality, and after living with the man's son Dickie for a little while, he realises that this is the exact kind of life he likes and he is willing to do anything to get it, including impersonating and removing people who threaten his obsession. its quite psychological, but the setting is really charming and it definitely grips u.

one last book is atonement. honestly one of the saddest books I've ever read, but completely worth it. it's written from the perspective of a young girl named briony, who tells a half-lie that ends up ruining many lives. the book follows her as she ages and tries to come to terms with her mistake and 'atone' for what she has done and it comes across very much in her writing the toll the burden is taking on her. u may need tissues for this one, but in my opinion its one of the greatest romantic dramas ever written.

hope these help, happy reading!

I am currently reading Klara and The Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro.

I think it has been criticised for using very common sci-fi tropes. But it's the writing that wins through.

Very engaging and strange story.

I'm about halfway through.

A great suggestion are the book of Gabor Maté, I would say just check them out and see which book appeals most to you when you look at the summary.

Have fun reading!!
