Recs if you like Assembly...
Books that feel like an A24 film
Books that are atmospheric, emotionally unsettling, beautifully written, a little weird, and linger long after you finish them.
assigned by frankie
almost every single book mentioned* on Frankie's Shelf youtube channel because their taste is wild and i love it.
updated as frankie posts. *mentioned as in the book is the focus of the video, listened in the description, or offhandedly said.
Corporate Cults
Motivational posters, loyalty oaths, HR "family culture", retreats that feel like indoctrination, hustle worship, and LinkedIn messiah energy.
Weird and Unhinged Women
All sorts of stories about all sorts of women. Mostly litfic, some horror.
Between two books
Books from the Florence and the Machine book club @betweentwobooks on IG
(I am not the book club admin, just a fan, and these are not all the books but I will add them all in soon, I promise)
Short Books for a Slump
Shorter books (around 200 pages) to get out of a reading slump or to help pad your stats. Comment if you want recommendations, I’ve read a lot of these.
Weird and Unhinged Women 2.0
All sorts of stories about all sorts of women and girls.
This is a genre-agnostic mega-list of weird girl* lit expanding on an original list by @yarnandbooks, who is no longer on Pagebound. You can view the original list here: (link) /// As a nonbinary person, I take as broad a view as possible of the "girl" in "weird girl*", hence the asterisk.
Wide open for recommendations!
books that feel like a joanna newsom song
What a woman does is open doors, it is not a question of locking or unlocking.
NatsBookClub - with Natalie Portman
A book club where storytelling is at it’s heart. To feel for characters in stories as we might for ourselves or our friends.
