Hi, my people! It\u2019s been a while\u2014apologies for the radio silence! Life has been a mix of busy and, let\u2019s be real, a little bit of lazy. But here I am, and guess what we\u2019re talking about today? Yep, books! Why, you ask? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, my 5-year-old boy decided to sit down with a book and asked me to read it to him. I was in the middle of something, so I said, \u201cLater, during bedtime.\u201d But instead of waiting, he just started flipping through the pages, staring at the pictures. And to my absolute shock, he knew<\/em> what was on every page, not by reading, of course, but by memory! He had memorized every single word just by listening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Turns out, while he may have inherited his dad\u2019s beautiful long long lashes, he definitely got his love for books from me. Oh yes, he did!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So yes this brings me to our today\u2019s topic, the books I have loved and repeated a million times. I remember the night I read Love Story<\/em> by Erich Segal. It was nearly 2 a.m., and I was utterly lost in the love between Oliver and Jennifer. When she died, I was clutching the book so tightly, I was howling, sobbing like I’d lost someone close. It was my first ever book heartbreak, and let me tell you, I mourned her death for days. I felt like my heart had shattered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But then I found my way into the Jewels of the Sun<\/em> by Nora Roberts, and it was like stepping into a new world\u2014one filled with romance and dreams. Teenage me fell head over heels in love with the idea of love. I couldn\u2019t stop reading, imagining myself in those dreamy, Irish landscapes. Fast forward to now, with my glasses prescription at a solid -5 in both eyes (worth every page!), and I can confidently say I have no regrets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re like me and love to lose yourself in stories, here are a few of my all-time favourite book recommendations, and if you are not a bookworm like me, it\u2019s never too late to start. I have added links to all the books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the link to the book. https:\/\/amzn.to\/3zuz5Hp<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. <\/strong>Jewels of the Sun<\/strong><\/em> by Nora Roberts<\/strong>
A perfect escape into a world of magic, love, and Irish charm. It\u2019ll make you believe in fairy tales again. ( There was a time when me and best friend wanted to settle in Ireland after reading this trilogy) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the link to the book: https:\/\/amzn.to\/4eu5nkO<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. <\/strong>The Night Circus<\/strong><\/em> by Erin Morgenstern<\/strong>

4. <\/strong>Pride and Prejudice<\/strong><\/em> by Jane Austen<\/strong>

Here is a link to the book: https:\/\/amzn.to\/3XMkmRr<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. <\/strong>The Alchemist<\/strong><\/em> by Paulo Coelho<\/strong>
A philosophical journey about following your dreams, discovering yourself, and finding your place in the universe. I have found some real answers in this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. <\/strong>Where the Crawdads Sing<\/strong><\/em> by Delia Owens<\/strong>

7. Little Women<\/em> by Louisa May Alcott<\/strong>

8.<\/strong> The Notebook<\/strong><\/em>by Nicholas Sparks<\/strong>
A timeless, heart-warming love story that spans decades. It\u2019s a tale of enduring love, heartbreak, and the power of memory. If you\u2019re in the mood for a tearjerker that will leave you with all the feels, this one\u2019s a must-read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. The Time Traveler’s Wife<\/em> by Audrey Niffenegger<\/strong>
A unique love story that defies time, quite literally. It\u2019s about the romance between a man who involuntarily time travels and the woman who loves him through all of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the link for the book: https:\/\/amzn.to\/3XOX3q5<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. A Walk to Remember<\/em> by Nicholas Sparks<\/strong>
Another classic from Sparks, this story of young love and tragedy will have you crying by the end. It\u2019s a tale of how love can change lives, no matter how short the time. I would recommend the movie as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sadly i couldn’t find this book on Amazon, but I am pretty sure you can get it in any bookstore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each of these books has a special place in my heart for different reasons, and I hope you find one (or all!) that speaks to you. Let me know if you pick one up! Happy reading!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
