Please recommend some of your favorite books!

by•
Working from home has given me some extra time to read in the mornings and evenings because I no longer have to commute 2+ hours back and forth. So, I've been compiling a reading list- please feel free to recommend some of your favorite books! The more diverse the genres, the better. I am currently reading Beloved by Toni Morrison, and am looking forward to moving onto Pachinko because everyone I know has hyped it up.

You could also title this 'what books do i want for Christmas' @hannahsuyun :) - Business related = 'Don't make me think' - Steve Krug. This is my bible, I buy everyone who I hire a copy - Non-business related = 'All the light we cannot see' - Anthony Doerr. It's a few years old but I only just got round to reading it. Incredible

For fun, I finished book 2 of Children of Blood & Bone (it's a YA trilogy). Book 3 comes out in 2021, it's like Harry Potter meets Beasts of No Nation taking place in a mythical West Africa. If you're into graphic novels Chew is a lot of fun, and anything by Octavia Butler is relevant and a good read.

I love The Year of Magical Thinking (Joan Didion) and One Hundred Years of Solitude (Gabriel García Márquez)!

I recommend the Night Angel Trilogy by Brent Weeks, and any book by Brandon Sanderson...assuming you read these types.
