Kingkiller and Red Rising were pretty good for me. I haven’t started Wheel of Time. I’m kind of afraid of the commitment.

Has anybody r…”
I bought the first three on a Kindle sale; they look really good!



My favorites are
Bliss, Remembered
Switched
Reflection
I don’t even like romance, so you know they got to be good!

It’s up next after this big beast of a book!

I recommend the book Junglezen Sheru written by a Monk, teacher and writer.
The story describes ethology.



The studio Ghibli film based on the book differs form the novel, but i loved it so much!
And i'd recommend 'The Burning' by Laura Bates for people to read, either free through netgalley or when it comes out february. i really enjoyed it more htan i expected.

This is motivating since I didn't enjoy the movie at all! I'm glad the book is better :)

Oh, alright, so you mean that there's more to the characters but not to the scary part? I just think the start of the movie was terrifying and the rest just fell flat with me. Maybe if the story made more sense (maybe it will in the book). I will read Stephan King (I haven't yet) and I have planned to start with The Shining and then I'll give this a try too :) I hope The Shining is good.
Thank you for the clarification and the detail, Anamarija :)

I highly recommend Address Unknown. It's just 40 pages long and we just read it in the Reading Sprint where the link to download it was also provided. It's really awesome, and someone we must read!
I love fantasy, retellings and dystopian. Check out my list of read books :) can anyone suggest some books I might enjoy?
@Alanah I'd suggest linking the shelves for convenience. Also, your profile's private :/
I'd recommend:
A Game of Thrones
An Ember in the Ashes

What Daddy Did
Three Weeks With My Brother
Sickened: The Memoir of a Munchausen by Proxy Childhood

If you were a teen in the 90's and you like topics about mental illness you'll love this book.
The Casquette Girls
If you like stories about vampires and witches.
Istanbul crimson nights
If you like psychological thrillers with real violence feminist stories and international crime.
Alice in Zombieland
Alice and zombies, what could be better?


Hi. Check Istanbul crimson nights

I heard Sadie is pretty good and is about 308 pages

How about something like Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan? I also liked Sourdough by the same author. The first is a mystery and the second is a bit mysterious and both have a touch of the supernatural as well as being a bit less than 300 pages. I liked them!
