50 more books I like and want to suggest
Some time ago I made a post about 50 books I liked and wanted to suggest. Many people seemed to have liked the post and since then I have read more, so here is part 2. These are literally just suggestions, you don’t have to read these books – I just like sharing what I like :D
(Also I hope that I won’t name a book from the other list, but if I do – well, that just shows you how much I like it I guess)
1. The Trojan Women, Euripides
2. Guards, Guards!, Terry Pratchett
3. Vengeful, V.E. Schwab
4. Hertha, Fredrika Bremer
5. Crime and Punishment, Fyodor Dostoevsky
6. Love, Hanne Ørstavik
7. The wild duck, Henrik Ibsen
8. The little friend, Donna Tartt (this book should be known much better – Tartt proves here that she can absolutely write fantastic and deep female characters. Also, southern gothic!)
9. The bell jar, Sylvia Plath
10. Bungo Stray Dogs (yes, I know, this is a manga series, but since almost all the characters are based on writers, I think it belongs here as well, and because it inspired me to look up many of the Japanese writers that are named.)
