I have a challenge for you! Rules: In a text post, list ten books that have stayed with you in some way. Donāt take but a few minutes, and donāt think too hard ā they donāt have to be the ārightā or āgreatā works, just the ones that have touched you. Tag ten friends, including me, so Iāll see your list. Make sure you let your friends know youāve tagged them.
ooh um okay no pressure right just off the top of my head here are books
the newsflesh trilogy (feed, deadline, blackout) because those are some deeply upsetting zombie novels. very, very good, I highly recommend them, but wow emotions
tamar because I havenāt finished it yet but I have a feeling I know how itās going to end and itās going to upset me
watership down because fuck you I care a lot about those rabbits
squire because holy hell tamora pierceās novels were a large part of my formative years you donāt understand. especially kel, kel was so important. I read them out of order so squire was my first.
