And now, Summer Reads: Non-Fiction Edition. I read a mix of personal growth and memoirs, but the books that intrigued me the most were these three memoirs, flagged in the comments below. Not surprising, as memoirs are my favorite non-fiction category. It‘s fascinating and often moving to step into the shoes of someone else‘s different life experiences.🔸 #2022reads #summer2022reads

Welp I know I‘m a taaaad behind on sharing my Summer Reads, but better late than never! This summer felt extra long and hot 🥵 so I turned to engrossing fiction titles that took me far away to other worlds and experiences. Here are the novels and stories that helped me escape the heat (at least for a while!)🔸 #2022reads #summer2022reads

alysonimagines I‘ve added this to my shortlist of favorite surrealist fiction about the absurdities of corporate culture written by Japanese women authors—yes, it‘s a very nichey niche! (edited) 1y
alysonimagines Thank you @ThePageantHam for this excellent rec! It‘s a fascinating experiment on the reader, just as Toni Morrison intended. I want to read it again and see if I have a different reaction the second time. (edited) 1y
alysonimagines I‘ve also added this strangely tender and touching book to my shortlist of favorite surrealist corporate culture fiction by Japanese women authors. 🖤🎌 1y

Book Four of 2022 Done.
Got my hand on an author whom I loved reading growing up.!! Took me down the nostalgic lane..!! As usual Danielle Steel never disappoints..!! All her fierce, real and relatable powerful Female characters..in the story make it a good read.

BOOK 5 of 2022
This breezy page turner got interesting with each chapter.! Loved the evolution of the protagonist all the way her story makes you feel good cos of the integrity portrayed thorough out some pages make you smile some make you cry.but it is all well culminated & all human emotions & other characters are very distinct & relatable.

On to the next book!!! Columbine has been a book that‘s been on my list. After living the generation of it, I‘ve always wanted to know the behind the scenes information that has been lost.

While I spent much of the winter diving head-first into SFF novels for a temporary escape, I also felt a deep need to work through all the heavy things I was experiencing, especially my grief and burnout. I highly recommend all the titles bookmarked in the comments, if and when you need help processing grief, loss, burnout, anxiety, or disorientation.🔸#2022reads #winterreads

This winter, ALL my fiction reads were fantasy and science fiction, my top two fave fiction genres. I felt a particular yearning to escape into them for a temporary respite from the ongoing real life challenges I‘ve been facing. I‘ll bookmark some of the SFF titles I read in the comments. Standout faves: The Broken Earth Trilogy and the tagged art book about the making of The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.🔹#2022reads #winterreads
