I seem to always gravitate towards more melancholy books. For instance, my favorite books are Gone Girl, Emily St. John Mandel’s last three (incredible) books, and The Bell Jar. I just finished Never Let Me Go, and hot damn that was depressing haha. My anxiety has been INSANE lately, especially about the state of the world and the current political climate. I need something that isn’t too stressful. I always associated happy books with being corny/cheesy, so I’d like to avoid that.
