Books I Love

Reading has always been a way for me to calm my body and cool my spinning mind. I’m pretty picky about what I read and when I love a book, I love it deeply.

Even though I’ve read hundreds (if not thousands) of books, my actual bookshelf is relatively sparse because I love giving away books after I’ve read them.

Below are some of my all-time favorite reads.
