My Favorite Books

Yesterday I shared my Covid Shopping list in hopes to provide you with one small resource. Today I thought I’d share my favorite books, as reading has really helped me recently. I am not a “reader” (I just started reading for leisure recently) but, a good book really can make you feel like you’ve travelled someplace else. It can make me forget about my current situation for a moment. I know this sounds silly, but it gives me something to look forward to and makes me feel like more than “just a mom.”

Here are the books, in no particular order:

• The Great Alone — Kristin Hannah (Trigger warning: domestic abuse)

• The Alice Network — Kate Quinn

• Little Fires Everywhere — Celeste Ng

• When Breath Becomes Air — Paul Kalanithi

• Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows — Balli Kaur Jaswal

• Educated — Tara Westover

• The Moment of Lift — Melinda Gates

• Becoming — Michele Obama

• This Is How It Always Is — Laurie Frankkel

• The Nightingale — Kristin Hannah

• Where the Crawdads Sing — Delia Owens

• What Remains — Carole Radziwill

• The Help — Kathryn Stockett

• The Paris Wife — Paula McLain

• Loving Frank — Nancy Horan

• Rules of Civility — Armor Towels

• Room — Emma Donoghue (Trigger warning: this is actually pretty disturbing but a fascinating book)

I hope you enjoy these books as much as I did! If you aren’t a “reader” either, I encourage you to order yourself one just to see :)

Please share your favorites as well so I can add to my list.
