Writing & Literature Student Reading List
Here's a list of every book I studied, read, or was reccomended to read as part of my Writing and Literature BA - for eager academics, fellow writers & nostagic graduates๐ Let's milk my education๐ช






City Scapes๐ Fiction
Inspired by my Modernism module๐ Books that evoke vivid city settings or revolve around a place almost like the city/town is a character in itself. A bit of a spin on the "sentient house" trope; what books out there have a city setting that steals the show? One of my favourite underrated tropes. All genres, reccomendations welcome!






Poetry for All!
Just a simple list of poetry and lyrical prose books and collections I wish got more love, especially online! People say Poetry is a dying art form, and as a poet I am determined to NOT LET THAT HAPPEN. Here are some of my favourites, some TBRs and open invitation for chats and reccomendations of favourite poems or collections in the comments!๐ฅฐ






best prose 'round these parts
books that deliver their stories with gorgeous, unique, and well-crafted prose. this list is multi-genre and spans many decades - the only requirement is that the book is written with particular attention to its language. good prose is often surprising, melodic, and adds depth and beauty to the narrative - it's all about the way these books are written. recommendations welcome and encouraged!






The Lost Generation
A little ennui here, a little disillusionment there.
