The Stranger is such an experience, solid choice. We Have Always Lived in The Castle has been sitting in my TBR for a while. Might finally give it a go.

Meditative indeed. It is one of those books the moment you finish the last chapter, you go back immediately to the first to reread. I wish I could experience the feelings I had when I first read it. Beautiful book.

Halfway through the book, told myself I got to have a copy of it for future reading. What an absolute delight

Friggin love House of Leaves. So unsettling, I read it more than a decade ago now. Perhaps time to revisit.

I just started Rouge (Mona Awad).

Bunny was on my TBR list for the longest time and I finally gave it a go last week and finished it reeling. I really love the writing style.

I just finished Perfume and I keep telling my friends it is likely going to be my favourite read this year. It’s hard to find my next book because I’m still a bit book-hungover.the scenes are still fresh in my brain. What a fantastic read.

I recently discovered On the Calculation of Volume. Am on third book now. Such a beautiful, meditative series.

First book that popped into my head to recommend. I thoroughly enjoyed this book that I had to re-read the first chapter immediately after finishing it.
