There are… so many, but the first one that popped into my mind was We Need to Talk About Kevin by Lionel Shriver. My best friend has been trying to get me to read this book for ages. She said it’s a disturbing, but interesting read and probably something that I’ll enjoy. I just know this is the kind of book I need to be in the right mindset to read. That said, I do want to eventually get to this one.

Hahaha, again, there are so many 😅 We’ll go with one that has been on my Goodreads TBR since I set up my account: Les Misérables by Victor Hugo. This book remains on my TBR because I’m legitimately intimidated by it. It’s a classic and I have a strained relationship with classics. It’s also freakin’ huge and big books intimidated even when they aren’t classics. But… I’ve heard some incredible things about this one, so I will give it a shot. Eventually…

I am forever ashamed that I still have not read Sword and Pen by Rachel Caine. This is the last book in the Great Library series, which is absolutely phenomenal! I don’t know why I keep skipping over this book to pick up other ones. I know I’m going to love it! I think I’m just not ready to say goodbye to Jesse and crew. I adore the characters in this book and I’m sad that I only have one more book left with them.

I’m gonna steal Danni’s answer and say The Picture of Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde. Not only does the story sound like a wild ride, but I find the author himself fascinating. I also tend to get along better with classics that have a bit of the fantastic. A secret painting that keeps the subject young and beautiful seems like a good fit! Here’s hoping I actually enjoy it unlike so many other classics I’ve tried 😂

Again, quite a few, but the one that pops up at the top right now is House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas. After realizing I have zero interesting in reading her other series, I also realized that I’m still curious about this author. I figured trying out her newest series would work much better for me. Who knows. Maybe I’ll love it so much that I’ll want to read all of her backlog? Only time and me actually reading this will tell.

I haven’t watched all of the series, but I did enjoy what I watched of the Netflix show based on The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson. I do love to be spooked by the media I consume, so this seems like a book I would love. If it’s half as creepy as the show, I’m really looking forward to reading it! No real clue why I haven’t yet… it’s just not high on my TBR at the moment.

You don’t see The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab as much on Insta these days. For a minute, though, it was everywhere! And I was really eager to read it, too! We see how far I’ve gotten with that 😅 I don’t know what’s made me put off reading this for so long. V.E. Schwab is one of my favorite writers! Perhaps I just want to savor it… yeah, that’s what I’m gonna go with.
