Hello, I am looking for a few book recommendations. I have been looking for a book written by someone who I can see as “myself in 10 years” and that can resonate with me personally. I am a 23y/o woman, with a background in traveling and documentary filmmaking, and journalism. I am in a relationship (with an age gap) and struggle with jealousy and an increasing difficulty with balancing the embracing of the love of my life and independence (for instance I want to work abroad for some time for instance as an international correspondent). At the same time, every day I feel I want to do something different: one day I want to be a gemologist, the other an archeologist, the other a filmmaker and the other a writer. I’ve lived in NYC and DC for work but am originally from Europe and I miss Europe every time I’m in the the US for too long. I have a deep love for art, culture, aesthetica, books and ambiance. I am hoping and searching for some kind of Joan Didionesque narrator that has some of the same interests and struggles and writes about it. Does anyone have a recommendation?
