@Mya000


Thank you for tagging me. Know that I love reading your threads. I have been on a reading spree lately. I indulged in a heap of romantic fictions, murder mystery, finance, philosophy, etc. My favourite author being Colleen Hoover (please don't cancel me for saying that :P). I discovered her with her bestseller, It Ends With Us. Ever since I believe I've read about half a dozen or more of her books. They consist of diverse themes. One quality that I admire about her is the writing without restraints, sometimes not conforming to the norms of society which I think is a bold thing to do. Her books are quick and easy to read, spellbinding and you'll keep flipping the pages till it's over. I stay up reading most of the times. Of course, other books- academic and non academic as well. 

Reading is my newfound passio and I have no regrets!

@trueconfidant123 Thank you for sharing! It’s wonderful to hear that you’re diving into such a wide range of books. Don’t worry, I’m not going to cancel you — I haven’t read Colleen Hoover’s books myself, but I’ve heard they address complex issues, including abusive relationships. Since I haven’t read them, I don’t have a strong opinion. It’s always valuable to approach what we read with a critical eye. Based on your description, her writing sounds really intriguing!

@Mya000 "The Scapegoat" by Daphne Du Maurier - it is on my list of top books ever.

As for feminity and feminism, you might be surprised to check "Ann Veronica. A Modern Love Story" by... H.G. Wells (yes!). However, it depicts the female rights movements in some old-fashioned way. A nice story with positive feminity in the background is also "The Story of Mr Polly" by the same author.

@jacek73 Thank you for the great recommendations! it’s always interesting to see different perspectives on feminism and femininity in literature. I’ll definitely add them to my reading list!

@Mya000 hard to choose only one, I'll go with a more uncommon author: as a lover of fantasy books, I loved the Nightrunner trilogy by Lynn Flewelling.
Great worldbuilding and characters, plus it features a well written queer relationship, which was quite uncommon in the 90es.

@Aayla I love discovering lesser-known authors! I’ll definitely check it out—thanks for the recommendation!
