ATTENTION ALL BOOK LOVERS!! I need your help.

I have this friend. He’s really smart.

Like, actually the smartest person I know. 

BUT HE DOESN’T READ. I mean, he can. He reads news articles and science articles and lots of stuff. Not books. Not fiction.

There’s nothing wrong with this, and I am not saying there is.

However, when discussing this with him not long ago I was talking about how being able to lose yourself in a story was one of the greatest joys in my life. You know that feeling, where you’re living the story… You’re there beside Harry as he walks to his death. You’re there as Frodo finally destroys the ring. You feel it. That. 

It’s the magic of reading.

My friend told me he has never once experienced this. It kind of gutted me.

I told him that I would find him a book that he could lose himself in. I want him to experience the magic of reading.

This is where I need your help. My thing is Fantasy. Probably 90% of what I have read in my life, indeed what is on my shelves, is Fantasy. This isn’t my friend’s thing.

I NEED SUGGESTIONS. If you have a non-fantasy book that you lost yourself in, or that touched you in some way… PLEASE! Let me know.

(My friend is a dude. He’s 27. He likes clever things)

Please help me.

When somebody says that Annie Cresta is too unstable to be in a relationship...

The Seventieth Annual Hunger Games. Annie Cresta goes in unprepared for what she will face… Finnick Odair is also unprepared. Annie crept up on him, and this year he finds it more difficult than ever to sit by and watch the slaughter within the arena.

Here’s your quiet reminder to throw caution to the wind a take a little step today towards making one of your dreams come true. Just one step towards one dream. Take it one day at a time. And I promise you will get there.
