So basically my birthday is in a few weeks’ time, and I was thinking of purchasing two books as a birthday present for myself.
I have a slightly eccentric habit of reading two books at one time. I usually have a fast-paced and a slow-paced book and would choose one to read based on my current reading mood.
To clarify, ‘fast-paced books’ are books that I can relax after an exhausting day a work for an hour or two before bedtime, i.e books that are more engaging and exciting such as but not limited to: mysteries, thrillers or realistic fiction. They also tend to be shorter in length.
‘Slow-paced books’ are books that I will read for hours in one shot on a chill weekend afternoon. They usually tend to have more intense world-building and lore which requires greater brainpower, such as sci-fi, fantasy, historical fiction etc. Literary fiction with atmospheric writing and thicker novels also fall in this category.
Open to any genre 😀 thank you for all suggestions!
