Reading has always been my escape, my education, and my comfort. Here are the books that made the biggest impact on me this year.
Fiction
"Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow" by Gabrielle Zevin
This book about friendship, creativity, and the games we play—both digital and emotional—stayed with me long after I finished it.
"The House in the Cerulean Sea" by TJ Klune
A heartwarming story about found family and accepting those who are different. Perfect for when you need something cozy.
Non-Fiction
"Four Thousand Weeks" by Oliver Burkeman
A refreshing take on time management that's really about accepting our limitations and making peace with the finite nature of life.
Poetry
"Pillow Thoughts" by Courtney Peppernell
Beautiful, accessible poetry about love, loss, and healing. I return to this collection often.
