I`m always looking for good books and some of these are definitely gonna go on my list. A few beautiful books I`ve recently read and would recommend are The Power by Naomi Alderman, The miseducation of Cameron Post by Emily M. Danforth, Unfiltered by Lily Collins, and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century by Yuval Noah Harari.

I read the book prior to watching the movie, and I’m glad I did. It wasn’t an easy read by any means. Its raw and makes you imagine things that aren’t pleasant that these men and women deal with daily. Definitely a test jerker. I loved the movie too but I much prefer the book as the details of their journey with PTSD are much more real. Enjoy!

Here is my suggestion: how about a parenting blog? I am am professional social worker and mother and I am using my know how to start a blog for normal parents raising strong and resilient kids without going nuts. I want to take out pressure and contribute something so kids can grow up into mentally stable, healthy, confident and empathic people. It’s all my work for free (non profit), no commercials involved so far. The parenting I suggest supports mental health and is helping to prevent depression and anxiety disorders in children. It’s not a book, but maybe worth suggesting for a reading list? Please , if interested, find out more here: https://strongkids.blog/2017/12/21/play-is-your-childs-superpower/
Kind regards
Anna

Beautiful Story about waking up in a different body every day and dealing with love and relationships. Goodreads is an awesome website to find new books.

I started the show and then HAD to read the books. They are amazing! And it shows you how well they bring the story to life in the show. Happy reading!!

IMHO it is the best historical fiction out there. And it is the first in a series! (The Lymond Chronicles) If you are looking for something historical (can you tell I love history?) Three Years With Grant is one of my favorite historical accounts. It is about Gen. Grant’s war correspondent who single handedly made war coressponding a respected occupation. Suddenly We didn’t Want to Die is also an excellent historical first hand account of WWI by a US marine. Beautifully written ( though very sad). Finally, my go to read for every situation is A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway. It is his story of his time spent in Paris becoming a writer. It is honest, moving, simple, and brings Paris to life in such a way that it becomes an old friend. I have so many other recommendations (I love to read) but I don’t want to overwhelm anyone with my over excitement. 😉

Right now I’m working my way through all of Jodi Picoult’s books, as she’s my favorite author, but I need other books to read in between because they’re so emotional.

It’s about a family and the choices they make after something they learn as children. It stuck with me long after reading.
