I’m 23 years old and grew up reading anything from YA fiction, Tolstoy, Orwell, to Fantasy/SciFi. Lately I’ve found that books have become riddled with smut, which is fine for some, but not for me. I want a series or book that will move me emotionally and get me hooked on reading again, without the smut and quite frankly without the typical YA fiction tropes. I think the last thing I read that moved me to near tears or had me staring out windows contemplating life was Plath’s “The Bell Jar”. I love fantasy and fiction, but also love a psychologically and emotionally challenging read. What have you read that caused a “reading reawakening” and had you thinking deeper?

Try Hyperion, it is a great book. Intelligent, imaginative, moving.
