hi, there's an online bookstore with free shipping at the moment and I would love to buy some books. Could you give me some recommendations? I hope you're having a really nice day :)
I’m currently obsessed with the Shades of Magic series by V.E. Schwab. The first two books are already out, they are A Darker Shade of Magic and A Gathering of Shadows. The 3rd book comes out next month. The series has pirates, magic, a badass lady who dresses in men’s clothing, and only the slightest hints of romance. And there’s a canon gay couple, if LGBT representation is important to you.
If you like fairytales and retellings, check out Heartless by Marissa Meyer. It tells the story of how the Queen of Hearts became who she is. It is very good. I read it in less than a day.
If you want something less fantasy and more mystery, the Cormoran Strike series by Robert Galbraith (J.K. Rowling writing under a different name!) is great. There are 3 books in the series thus far: Cuckoo’s Calling, The Silkworm, and Career of Evil.
If you like nonfiction, Wishful Drinking by Carrie Fisher is really good and really funny. I am also a big fan of The Art of Asking by Amanda Palmer, but that one might make you cry.
And if you’re into something a bit more science fiction-ish, Illuminae and Gemina are absolutely mindblowing. The first book had a plot twist that actually made me scream out loud.
If historical fiction is your thing, Salt to the Sea and Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys are fantastic. They are set during World War II and have some connected characters.
I hope that helps, if not, message me again with a list of genres you like (or even books you loved) and I’ll try to give you more specific titles.
