read fiction. it’s fun.

Any recent favourites you have?

the picture of dorian gray was one of my favorites this year, also murakami’s south of the border west of the sun what about you?

From the stuff I read this year (45 books 🤍) I loved Octavia Butler’s “earthseed” books, “Sharp objects” by Gillian Flynn, “the other valley”, “the orchard” by David Hopen and “Bunny” by Mona Awad. Also “writers&lovers” by Lily King (surprisingly good actually)

I’ve been thinking about re-reading Dorian Gray, I haven’t read that since high school. Such a masterpiece. I used to love Murakami also, I read soooo many of his novels! You might like Banana Yoshimoto’s stuff if you’re into Japanese magical realism ✨

I do! Here it is: goodreads.com/user/show/1144… (I also use storygraph in fact I’m trying to fully switch over.. in case you’re also there) I like a lot of different genres, lately been reading a lot of eco fiction / post-apocalyptic sci-fi.

Also thank you 🥰 it feels like an achievement even though I’ve always been an avid reader & book lover. Yeah I’d love to re-read Dorian Gray as an adult, I feel like it would hit differently! Maybe in 2025 ❤️
