i have been trying to get back into reading for a while, i used to do it nonstop in middle/high school but fell off after i graduated. i picked up Thursday Murder Club randomly at a bookstore a few weeks ago and finally sat to read it this week and it’s really doing it for me right now. i don’t have much time to read anymore with college and work but i think this will be the first book i have finished since i graduated high school 😅
so, i’m curious. what books randomly re-sparked your love for reading?

Norwegian Wood – Murakami. Was recommended to me years ago but I finally gave it a try this year and it had me hooked from start to finish. I read Kafka on the Shore not long after and enjoyed that too, though not as much.
Strangely enough, *Book Lovers, Beach Read,* and *Delilah Green Doesn’t Care*. I wasn’t a huge romance person before picking them up, but grad school wrecked my ability to read for pleasure for years and I figured start with something light and fluffy and simple. They took me by surprise with how well written and nuanced the characters were, and now I’m back to reading as much as I can around having a four month old!
After spending most of high school having the love of reading drained from me, in college The Stranger by Camus rocked my world. That and Blood Meridian really got me back into reading in a big way.
