A novel about two Afghan women, three decades of war, and the quiet violence of being erased. Khaled Hosseini's masterpiece is equal parts love story and political document. One of the most devastating books I've read. Ever.

I was completely hooked by Holly Black’s Folk of the Air trilogy. If you’re up to political intrigue, charming people and good food, you’ll love this quite addictive YA fantasy series

You may know Jon Krakauer as the author of Into the Wild, but in 1996 he joined a Mount Everest expedition that became one of the deadliest in history. His account is a gripping story of courage, missteps, and survival at the highest point on Earth, told by a journalist who witnessed it firsthand

The Great Alone follows Leni, 13, uprooted to remote Alaska with a volatile father and a mother who loves too fiercely. Brutal, tender, unforgettable and heartbreakingly good.

Language is power and if you didn’t know, Babel will help you grasp really important concepts about it. The novel follows Robin Swift, a Chinese boy raised at Oxford’s Royal Institute of Translation, where silver-working magic transforms language into a tool of empire. This furious, intellectually audacious story will bring you heartbreak, moral dilemmas and a rich magic system that was brilliantly imagined.

Thirst for Salt is a aching novel about the kind of love that doesn’t end so much as it imprints itself on you. It follows a woman looking back on an intense relationship from her twenties, one shaped by desire, silence, imbalance, and the traces it left behind. More than a love story, it’s about memory and the way the past keeps touching the present.
