Omg that's so difficult, but I think these are my favourite five (in no particular order):
1. 'The book thief' by Markus Zusak
Read this book three times, which is already an indicator, since I don't reread books that often and cried everytime. It's just so good!
2. 'The murder of Rodger Ackroyd' by Agatha Christie
I love Christie's work and am currently reading through the whole Poirot series. I know most prefer 'Murder on the orient express', which is great as well, but this one really stuck with me.
3. 'The secret history' by Donna Tartt
I found out (to my surprise) that this is quite controversial, you either love it or hate it, but I definitely love it. But I do love long and descriptive books with a huge build-up, but I understand that it's not for everyone.
4. 'The elegance of the hedgehog' by Muriel Barbery
Probably the least known book on my list and also a book I've reread many times. I don't know how this book found me, but it shaped me. Drank my first jasmine tea, because of this book and it's still one my favourite teas and book.
5. 'Sense and Sensibility' by Jane Austen
It was the first Austen novel I've ever read and I felt really seen in the character of Elinor. I don't know how Austen does it with her characterization that even after all those years you seem to know people like that. Love all her work, she's a genius and this book made me start reading and loving classics.
14. Do you ever mark/dog ear your books?
No, I don't. I'm one of those crazy people, who like their books looking new without a cracked spine and even though I have a lot of thoughts about the book I'm reading, I never bring them to paper or write them in the book.
What’s a book(s) you feel changed the way you think about everything?
Hello :D
This is such a good question! The first one that comes to mind is The Humans by Matt Haig. It's a very underrated book in which an alien has to disguise themselves as a human, and in the process of doing that he learns what being human really means. I read it for the first time in my teens, and it really changed me a lot. I believe it is one of the first books that helped me start my journey into looking at humanity in a more positive light and to appreciate the small things in life. Thinking about it it was the first book that helped start a process of shifting my perspective in focusing on the small joys. That cycle continued with my love for hobbits which have become the model of how I want to enjoy life. The small comforts and pleasures that we often tend to take for granted. The books that mark the end of this cycle and my arrival at fully living with this mindset are the two Monk And Robot books by Becky Chambers (A Psalm For The Wild Built and A Prayer For The Crown Shy). This duology is so healing for me. I love every single thing about it, and they act as a reminder for many many important things. Like the fact that existing to enjoy a good cup of tea is enough purpose for a life worth living. Once again it celebrates the pure joy of small things and reminds me that being a small creature on this big big planet is not bad at all. I am surely forgetting about some important books that influenced me in some way, but I feel like these outline a very specific set of feelings that I managed to embrace thanks to books only. They really shaped the person I am and they are reminders for me. So much so that I have many quotes written in my commonplace book, where I reread passages when I need some comfort.
The King in Yellow is a book filled with short stories and includes a play that is said to drive the reader insane. There is a mysterious and malevolent supernatural entity known as the King in Yellow that loosely connects the first four stories! I mainly enjoy it because of all the fanart people make of the King in Yellow, since they make it look Eldritch!! Just wanted to introduce the entity to a fellow monster lover >:)
Ooooooo, that sounds cool. I might give that a look. Thank you! I am always on the lookout for new monsters/entities.
