Hi! I’m 16 years old and looking for book recomendations. I don’t really mind the genre as long as its not non fiction and an informative piece. And i don’t want any explicit books with smut etc. I generally love fantasy books but for some reason I’m just craving a sad book that will emotionally destroy me right now. Also for some context, I’m finishing final exams soon and they lasted for about a month so I’m kinda zapped right now and basically have no motivation what so ever so i wouldn’t mind a medium sized/short book. So can everyone please recommend their fav 5 star reads!
Thanks!!

No longer human – Osamu Dazai
The Setting Sun – Osamu Dazai
Animal Farm – George Orwell
Annihilation – Jeff Vandermeer
The River has Teeth or Ghost Wood Song by Erica Waters are good kind of emotional fantasy books I read last year that aren’t super long. They both have a bit of romance but they aren’t “spicy” and its not the only/main thing happening.

There is this science fiction serial that I’ve really been loving, called Nokahme. It’s speculative fiction that veers into philosophy! 🙂
A little background on me. I’m an editor by trade. Working full time in the industry. I’m also a graduate student. So as you can imagine, my schedule is full. So when the author first approached me to quarry about my how much it would cost, I asked for samples. With no exaggeration, I absolutely fell in love with the story. It’s a slow start, but when it picks up, it’s so damn good. I believe in this story. So much so, I offered and have been providing my services pro bono. That is how much I want this story shared with people. I know so many will fall in love with it just as much as I have.
