This is a difficult one because I love so many books, but here's my top five books!


5- Tale as Old as a Time By Liz Braswell

Tale as old as Time is my favorite book out of the Disney twisted tale series because I believe that this really tells a different side of beauty and the beast. I really enjoy how the author added so much backstory, and how each chapter was a different story on both ends of belle now, and her past. One chapter would be the history, and the next would be current time, which is a really enticing way to lay out a book because you're not gonna know what comes next.

4-BE FEAR-LESS By Jean Case

Be fearless what is a book that I had to read for a college class that I took a semester ago, and after reading it for a few assignments I sincerely enjoyed this book because it gives you the different principles for a life you want to live. The reason why I like it so much is because it embraces chaos and the way the sections are broken up is a great way to really take in and understand what each section of the book is about. I really like how there are quotes in the book from many different people, including people in history, like Joan of arc or people that live life now. This is a great book to read especially for self improvement and even for entertainment purposes just because you like reading.

3-The Catcher In the Rye By J.D. Salinger

The catcher in the rye is such a good read especially for young adults, and the struggles that some young adults might go through. I read this book in high school, and I just fell in love with it. The story of Holden Caulfield is really interesting and attention grabbing and even inspiring in someways. I really liked how this book dove right into experiences that young adults experience, like profanity and sexual identity because even though so many people would like to ignore it, there are so many teenagers going through what Holden goes through believe it or not. Its really a breath of fresh air to have an author, write about these experiences, even if they might be a little exaggerated because it gives young adults, as well as adults insight into different issues and experiences that might not be talked about as often as it should.

2-The Night Olivia Fell By Christina McDonald

The night Olivia fell is a mystery novel that dives into the life and death of a teenage girl, who was found pregnant after being found fallen off a bridge, and is now in a coma. Following the mystery and the internal feelings of both Olivia and Olivia's mother is Increasingly more chilling and attention Grabbing every time I open the book. The chapters are broken up between Olivia before she fell, and her mother dealing with the aftermath, which is a really interesting way to break up chapters of a book, but I also find it extremely helpful and attention grabbing to solve this mystery. Every page I turned, I felt the emotion of each character and it felt like I was there really solving the mystery myself.

1-The Perks of Being a Wallflower By Steven Chbosky

The perks of being a wallflower is my all-time favorite book. Exploring the difficulties of a teenager, Charlie experiencing some terrible trauma, well also gaining many different experiences and great friends. The book is written in letter form, but we never know who the letter is for which captivated me from the day I first open the book. The story. Written, beautifully with Charlie, being a sentimental, caring, observant human being. Charlie made some amazing friends, and those friends helped him go through all of his different experiences. Each and everyone of the characters are relatable and having that connection to each character is amazing in how the author makes me feel like I am a part of the story. This book has a lot of dark humor and very difficult topics, but having those qualities in a book is also important because it makes the characters relatable and feel like they're actually in the room with you. I can suggest this book to anybody who will ever ask me. This is the most beautifully written book I have read and I believe that every teenager an adult should experience this book.



I hope everybody enjoyed my book reviews, keep in mind I am not a professional, and my summaries and explanations are a little vague, but I am doing that purposely because I would want each and everyone of you to give all of these books a chance, because each and everyone of them are written beautifully. I want others to experience what I experienced while reading these books.
