I finally got everything organized and came up with my ultimate winter reading list. There’s really nothing better than diving into a really good book this time of year, so here’s a list of many that you can use to do just that…
Down the Sewer, Julia Fox
I love Julia Fox! I thought she was smart and an icon, so naturally I read her autobiography and I absolutely loved her honesty and wild stories!
Donna Tartt’s “Secret Histories”
I highly recommend this book! It’s gripping from start to finish. If you like “dark academia” with lots of twists and turns, you’ll love this book! I love Tartt’s ability to write about humanity so starkly that it’s completely exposed.
A Man Who Can See, Edward Enniful
Another autobiography on the list was written by Edward Enninful, the current editor-in-chief of British Vogue. I’m a huge fan of his and it was so inspiring to read about his life, struggles and ultimate success.
Cleopatra and Frankenstein, Cocomelus
There’s been a lot of discussion surrounding this book, and I think that’s right. I thought the plot was simple and the characters could do all the dialogue, which is why I loved this book. Not only that, but I love the way Mellors writes. Her agency with language is beautiful and I just love her ability to make the ordinary seem extraordinary.
Wandering Soul, Cecil Ping
This book completely moved me. This is a beautiful story about immigration and assimilation. Not only is this a gripping read, but it is intertwined with history, making the story powerful and insightful.I also really enjoyed Pin’s perfectly imagined sibling dynamic and thus being able to really inject emotion into the narrative
The Shining, Stephen King
This may seem completely off-piste, but I love a winter thriller, and in my opinion, there’s none better than “King.” I love this book and come back to it every time I want to feel cold inside.
Sarah Rose Ate, Mature
I love how this book portrays mental health and the consequences of an unfriendly workplace because trust me, I’ve gotten my fair share of that. Etter captures the frustrating nature of the corporate world so brilliantly that it really deepens my hatred of it!
