β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've asked this in the past, but I'm curious how the answers might change since so many books have come out in the last several years that I think would fit this perfectly πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I don't have many IRL friends who enjoy reading, but I have been lucky enough to recommend books to fiction newbies in the past and I usually start with The Midnight Library! πŸ“š I think it's a book everyone should read (but that's because it saved my life, so it's very special to me) and I especially recommend it during May, Mental Health Awareness Month! πŸ’š
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
‼️ I’m taking the next week away from social media/blogging for my own mental health. I’ll probably be lurking some but please note that I won’t be updating much of anything til after the 15th 🫢🏼

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I certainly felt that about a few of the books I read this past month, but especially:
πŸ«– The Tea Dragon Society - this entire MG graphic novel trilogy just warmed my heart so much. It's precious and wonderful and if you haven't read it, please do because you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.
πŸ” Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers - within the first couple of chapters, I was belly-laughing so hard I was crying. This was hilarious and adorable and I didn't want it to end. I immediately began recommending it to everyone. 
⛱️ Happy Place - because of course! I mean, this book did make me sob my eyes out multiple times, but it also made me belly laugh more than once as well. It was perfect in every way and very quickly became my second fave of Emily's books (just after PWMOV)!
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Thank goodness I'm a big fan of rereading because I know I'll be revisiting all of these books again in the future πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I've asked this in the past, but I'm curious how the answers might change since so many books have come out in the last several years that I think would fit this perfectly πŸ‘ŒπŸΌ
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
I don't have many IRL friends who enjoy reading, but I have been lucky enough to recommend books to fiction newbies in the past and I usually start with The Midnight Library! πŸ“š I think it's a book everyone should read (but that's because it saved my life, so it's very special to me) and I especially recommend it during May, Mental Health Awareness Month! πŸ’š
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
‼️ I’m taking the next week away from social media/blogging for my own mental health. I’ll probably be lurking some but please note that I won’t be updating much of anything til after the 15th 🫢🏼

I certainly felt that about a few of the books I read this past month, but especially:
πŸ«– The Tea Dragon Society - this entire MG graphic novel trilogy just warmed my heart so much. It's precious and wonderful and if you haven't read it, please do because you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face.
πŸ” Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers - within the first couple of chapters, I was belly-laughing so hard I was crying. This was hilarious and adorable and I didn't want it to end. I immediately began recommending it to everyone. 
⛱️ Happy Place - because of course! I mean, this book did make me sob my eyes out multiple times, but it also made me belly laugh more than once as well. It was perfect in every way and very quickly became my second fave of Emily's books (just after PWMOV)!
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
Thank goodness I'm a big fan of rereading because I know I'll be revisiting all of these books again in the future πŸ™ŒπŸΌ

It's been a while since I've screamed about my favorite book, INTO THE HEARTLESS WOOD by @gamwyn, in-feed... so here's another reminder to not just buy this, but actually READ IT - like RIGHT NOW πŸ˜‰ I take every opportunity I can to recommend this one because it truly is unlike any other fantasy I've ever read and I just adore it with my ENTIRE HEART 🀎
β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €β €
If you love hauntingly beautiful fantasy books with:
πŸ”­ cinnamon roll astronomer boys
🌲 monstrous tree siren girls
🎢 villain falling for the hero
πŸ’« stars and leaves and everything in between
you will absolutely LOVE this book πŸ“–
