I have a relative who is undergoing cancer treatment and I’d like to gift her a book. She’s always shared her favorite books with me and has supported me through thick and thin. I’d like to do something to show her I care. We have extremely different tastes (I’m into fantasy and sci-fi, which she hates) so I’m not sure I know what she would enjoy. Could you please help with a recommendation?
Some common threads between the books she’s gifted me: there’s a female main character who overcomes or subverts societal expectations and the stories are typically crowd-pleasers.
Her most recent favorites are:
1. Trust by Hernan Diaz
2. Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
3. Good Night, Irene by Luis Alberto Urrea
