I’m in my twenties, I live in NYC, and I just quit my job. I have no idea what my next move is, but I would love a book recommendation that will resonate with this wacky stage of life. Can be fiction or nonfiction 🙂
I just finished Fourth Wing & Iron Flame. It’s romantasy. Fiction. Dragons and magic. 10/10. I’m 30, and have read them through 2x and listened to the dramatized audiobooks on audible.
