book recs for someone who loves lily king, gabrielle zevin, dolly alderton
I’ve been in abit of a reading slump lately and would really appreciate some recommendations that are similar to or give off a similar vibe (poignant, relatable/funny, heart-stirring) to my favourite books! my all-time favourites include:
- Writers and Lovers & Heart The Lover by Lily King
- Good Material and Ghost by Dolly Alderton
- Loved One by Aisha Muharrar
- The People We Keep & Home of The American Circus by Allison Larkin
- Tomorrow, tomorrow and tomorrow and Stories Life of AJ Fikry by Gabrielle Zevin
Recent favourites I had such a good time reading were Into The Blue by Emma Brodie and The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett.
It’s been hard to find books like these that keep me entertained and moved. Would appreciate any recommendations!
