Apparently, it is National Book Lover’s Day–although, let’s be honest; isn’t that every day for us bookworms lol? 🙂 One of my students sent me this (thanks, Brady!), and I just had to do a post. Books are wonderful, fabulous, amazing things. They have the ability to transport us to different places, pick us up when we’re down, make us cry one moment and smile the next. (Note: I prefer the feel-good books that make me laugh and/or swoon :)) I don’t know what the world would be like without books, but I do know I never want to find out.
Have you read any good books recently? Here are two that I’m looking forward to reading and one that I enjoyed (a lot more than I probably should have):
- Eliza and Her Monsters by Francesca Zappia
- The Cruel Prince by Holly Black
- Love Me Never by Sara Wolf
I’ve been waiting to read the first two for a while. Eliza and Her Monsters just sounds awesome and will be my first read from Francesca Zappia. In the past, I’ve loved Holly Black’s books about fairies, so of course, The Cruel Prince captured my interest immediately. Then there’s Love Me Never which I’ve already read and enjoyed. A lot. This book was…wow. It reminded me of Boys Over Flowers–one of my favorite Asian dramas–actually strike that, it is my favorite lol. Love Me Never was nowhere near as sweet, but it was definitely a guilty pleasure read.
Have you read any of these books? Did you enjoy them? I hope you’re all doing well and having a great week! And again, Happy National Book Lover’s Day!!!
Happy reading,
