Definitely with you on Lessons in Chemistry! I read Book Lovers by Emily Henry the week before and it had a similar easy breezy vibe, but I liked the characterization more.

very excited to see this!!

Currently reading “Tomb of Sand” by Geetanjali Shree and it’s beautiful so far!

My recent favs are anything Sayaka Murata… “Earthlings”, “Life Ceremony”, “Convenience Store Woman”!!! I’m obsessed.

Oooo that's tough - I read everything, but right now I'm really loving either novels that span decades and are really character-driven (Think: The Immortalists, The Vanishing Half) but I'm also loving fiction about dystopian societies (Think: The Testaments, etc.) Usually I don't go this dark, I also love ~chick flick~ reads that aren't necessarily romances, stuff like The Favorite Sister, Gone Girl, etc!

Ooh I’ve actually wanted to read the immortalists do you recommend it? And omg I have this book recommendation and it might not relate to the genres you just mentioned but I get the feeling you might like it, it’s called “grounded” by Kate klise it’s very touching and it’s just beautiful in many ways I highly recommend plus it not really a romantic book it barely has romance in it!
