The books I recommend you for this month are:
«The Lovely Bones» by Alice Sebold
This book isn't the usual story about a girl being murdered by a psychotic. It offers us another point of view of what happened, the point of view of Susie, the victim.
Susie Salmon, yes, like the fish, talks to us from her personal "Heaven" and watches as her family and friends struggle to find peace and to move on with their lives when they have to face the fact that she is dead, that she isn't there with them anymore.
The only ones who seem to want to know the truth about what happened to her, are her father, Jack, and her younger sister, Lindsey.
The title comes from a quotation that Susie said at the end of the book, when her friends and family finds the strenght to go on.
If you haven't checked it out yet go and read it.
Spoiler alert: prepare the tissues
If you like the genre then you can't really miss to read it.
The book is a psychological horror thriller, focused on Paul Sheldon, a writer famous for books about Victorian-era romance, that talk about the character Misery Chastain.
One day, because of a car crash, due to a snow storm, he is rescued by a fan of him, Annie Wilkes, who then transports him to her house and once she finds out what he did to her favourite character, Misery, forces him to write another story, no matter what it takes.
Annie will turns out to be a completely psychopath, and this book describes it very well, making you feel the same feelings of Paul, the same fear of her.
Her character is scary and amazing at the same time and you're going love it.
Spoiler alert: get ready for a plot twist.
«Harry Potter» by J. K. Rowling
I couldn't obviously not include what is one of the best sagas ever written and one of the most loved too.
Harry Potter with his seven books has conquered lot of readers, and some of them have grown up with him. Like me for example.
The books are full of wonderful meaning about love, friendship, fighting for your beloved ones and many more.
I would recommened to read all the seven books, not including the 8th one, "The Cursed Child", because honestly, it's not worth it.
Sorry Queen J.K.
But seriously they're really amazing because they're not only about magic and wizards, there's more of it.
So go check them out.
Spoiler alert: prepare the tissues
