Hatty Reads #1

Betty's bookshelf... a work in progress :^)
Hi guys!
In the midst of this (freezing) winter, cozying up with a good book has never felt better!
Finding stories in pages, and heroes in words, immersing yourself in a good book is a must do to have that quiet moment and stray your thoughts away from the worries and chaos of life.
Hopefully, it'll keep your head in the clouds for just a little while. 

If you're struggling to find a book for that next read, we've compiled a recommendation list of  ideal books for any mood you're in . So chill out, snuggle yourself into a mountain of blankets, grab a mug of tea and get reading! 

FEEL-GOOD FINDS:
Sometimes a cute romance or hilariously witty character is all it takes to get you out of that debby-downer mood. Breeze through  these cutesy light-hearted reads and your spirits will be lifted in no time :) 
  • - Carry On by Rainbow Rowell (SO CUTE)
  • - To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han
  • - Since You've Been Gone by Morgan Matson ((*starts belting Kelly Clarkson*))
  • - My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick


TEARJERKERS:
*rivers of tears* *sobs*
  • - I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson
  • - The Last Time We Say Goodbye by Cynthia Hand
  • - Orange by Takano Ichigo (the most beautiful manga ever)


EMOTIONAL ROLLERCOASTERS:
For when you need a reason to feel confused or stricken, laugh spastically, or just to mentally punch a hole through a wall. No seriously, these books will make you feel all the feels. WARNING: there may be crazy plot-twists
  • - November 9 by Colleen Hoover
  • - We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
  • - The Sea of Tranquility by Katja Millay


CUT-THROAT DRAMAS:
Packed with drama and a slightly creepy edge, these will be sure to make an impact. If you scare easy (like us), don't read with the lights out.  
  • - The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin 
  • - Burn for Burn by Jenny Han & Vivian Siobhan (read the entire trilogy!)
  • - Tiny Pretty Things by Dhonielle Clayton & Sona Charaipotra
  • - Don't Look Back by Jennifer L Armentrout


MYSTICAL OTHER-WORLDS: 
Lose yourself in a world weaved entirely from the author's imagination, usually served with a heaping of adventure, drama and maybe just a sprinkle of magic
  • - The Forbidden Wish by Jessica Khoury
  • - Starflight by Melissa Landers
  • - Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
  • - These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner


WATCH OUT FOR:
Excitedly anticipate the impending release of these finds with us as 2016 continues to dish out those literary gems ;) Definite adds on the ol' TBR list. 
  • - The Odds of Lightning by Jocelyn Davies (New York, nighttime adventures, breakfast-club inspired teens, need I say more?) ; Scheduled release 20/9/16
  • - Gemini by Sonya Mukherjee ; Scheduled release 26/7/16
  • - Heartless by Marissa Meyer ; Scheduled release 8/11/16



[Keep in mind we mostly read the genre Young Adult fiction. So if you don't think these books will be your cup of tea, don't worry! There's definitely a book out there for you :)]
