I love reading, but I go into periods of either reading way too much or not being in the mood to read at all, and now I’m experiencing the latter, which is unfortunate as I’ve actually got plenty of time to read at the moment. It’s always been easier for me to read a certain type of book, so I’m hoping for recommendations that will finally have me reading something. The best expression I’ve found to describe it is ‘coming of age’, but it’s not exactly that, so I’ll just list some books and hope you guys can find ones with a similar vibe.
​
The Outsiders, To Kill a Mockingbird, Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Carry On, Lord of The Flies, The Great Gatsby, Captains of The Sands, Sea of Death
​
The last two books are Brazilian, so I can’t expect many of you to know them, but they’ve been included just in case, as I really like them. Thank you all in advance!!
