The Woman in White, W.Collins ★★★★★ Carried this massive brick of a book around Europe with me, and I don't regret it.
Tess of the D'Urbevilles, T. Hardy ★★★★★ SPECTACULAR!!! STUNNING!!! A MUST READ!!!!
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer, P. Suskind ★★★★★ It's so good I have two copies of it.
Spring Snow, Y. Mishima ★★★★★ I'm not really the type of romance books, so the fact that I loved this book so much really, really surprised me.
A Little Life, H. Yanagihara ★★★★★ Definitely do proceed with caution and take breaks reading the book. As much as I love the writing it definitely isn't something you should be reading quickly without taking breaks. Some of the stuff in here was so bad I had to put the book down for a while to process it before picking it back up.
Heaven, M. Kawakami ★★☆☆☆ Man what?? Why was this hyped to heaven (BADUM TSSS) and back? The writing is nice which is why I give it two stars, but the actual story...?
Letters to a Young Poet, R.M. Rilke ★★★★☆
Lolita, V. Nabokov ★★★★★ Anyone who thinks people who enjoy this book are weirdos are clearly people who've never read it. I own this in hardcover for a reason. This is my first and only Penguins clothbound.
A Room of One's Own, V. Woolf ★★★★★ My first Woolf and I loved it, def need to read more!!!
Letters to his Father, F. Kafka ★★★☆☆ Really heartbreaking because I felt that I could really relate to Kafka in some sense.
Never Let Me Go, K. Ishiguro ★★★★☆ Man, it was heartbreaking. Definitely something to reread.
The Remains of the Day, K. Ishiguro ★★★★★ Oh man, when I say this is up there as one of my favourite books, I mean it. Nothing frm Ishiguro has been able to top it. The heartbreak is unbeatable and completely next level. I mean it when I say that I loved EVERYTHING about this book.
A Pale View of Hills, K. Ishiguro ★★★★☆ There's a lot of subtelty within the text that you have to look out for. But Ishiguro's writing is beautiful and pleasant to read, as always!
White Knights, F. Dosteoyevsky ★★★★☆ Definitely a book you should start with if you've not read him before and think you may be intimidated!
A Vindication on the Rights of Woman, M. Wollstonecraft ★★★★★ One of the first ever feminist literature pieces I've read.
Stoner, J. Williams ★★★★★ I read this in one sitting instead of sleeping.
The Prince, N. Machiavelli ★★★★★ Obviously I don't agree with all of Machiavelli's ideas, I just like him because he's funny.
No Longer Human, O. Dazai ★★★★☆ Miserable, like Stoner.
hello reader! assuming you are a reader, and that's why you're here. If you're not a reader, well, hi anyway, you should get into reading! anyway, this is my digital library where I record the books I read/am currently reading. I don't read a lot because I'm often too busy with school, but I try to read when possible. ...anyway, explore, hover over the books in the bookshelf to see a tiny review! I'll leave you alone and get back to coding.
P.S. this page is a massive WIP so it's very empty!!!!
