Â
1. Looking for Alaska â John Green
This book was published 12 years ago, but itâs still so actual that it can hurt. Donât think this is a book for âyoungstersâ: it could be perfect for young adults, but for adults too⊠youâre never too old to try different things.
Â

Â
4. The Girl on the Train â Paula Hawkins
This is an amazing thriller: maybe you have heard of it because it became a movie, but since I read the book I chose not to watch the movie âcause everyone kept telling me that the movie wasnât good enough to cope with the book. Believe me: you must read it.
Â
5. IT â Stephen King
Soon there will be a reboot of this one piece of horror history: havenât you read it yet? Now you have another reason more to read it: donât you know that âthe book is always better than the movieâ? How could you decide if this is the case of this new movie if you havenât read it?
Â
6. Nineteen Minutes â Jodi Picoult
Â
Sometimes we all need to cry a little bit, being moved by a movie, a song or a book. This Jodi Picoultâs novel is made to make you think and maybe to make you cry a little too. This book is 10 years old now, but school shooting, unfortunately, is a problem that still afflicts US.
7. Dark Matter â Blake Crouch
âAre you happy with your life?â How would you answer to this question? The main character of this book lives an adventure that literally changes his life. Maybe this book wonât change your life, but it will help you think a lot about your priorities and your choices, weâre sure about it.
Â
8. Beautiful Ruins â Jess Walter
The novel is a social satire which explores human nature and satirizing the Hollywood culture that is at the center of the book: which season better than summer is done to indulge in gossips and small talks?
Â
9. The House of the Spirits â Isabel Allende
This book is something special: it starts telling you the story of the Trueba family, spanning four generations and tracing the history of Chile, but it will end telling you something about yourself that you didnât realize till that moment. Allendeâs pen is magical and her first novel is something you have to read, at leats once in your life.
Â
10. Nick and Norahâs infinite playlist â Rachel Cohn & David Levithan
ï»ż
This is a book for someone who still believes in love, even if love hasnât shown him/her lot of mercy⊠the novel gives you hope, but above all, gives you amazing music suggestions and some quotes that youâll be able to use in real life for the upcoming years. Iâm telling you this, cause it happened to me, and it still happensâŠ
