Books I read in 2017 that I would recommend to literally everyone

An Online Magazine

Reading books in 2017 was an excruciating struggle as I was aiming to complete my Goodreads Reading Challenge (55 books). Are those too many books? No. But did I complete my challenge? Well, no. I read 43 out of 55; which I consider being a really good score. I made it a point that these books be as diverse as possible. Although, there were some that really disappointed me. And some that had me bawling. So, without further ado, I bring to you a list of books I read in 2017 that I would recommend to literally everyone.

Fanfiction: An underappreciated art of writing - The Yellow Wall

I had always wondered, “What if Harry Potter was actually sorted in Slytherin?” And that’s when fanfiction comes into the picture.

Ever wondered, “What if this character of a TV Show, whom I love so much, was actually an asexual woman of colour, extremely comfortable in her skin and in love with technology?” Because there might be a fanfic for that!

What was it that I was subjected to? Why was it so gruesome? Why does it still haunt me? The only answer I would get was 'rape'.
