books for the barbie movie lovers

Have you ever noticed how many books there are with characters named after things you can spot on a hike? Well, here’s a list for you!

Books where at least one MC is named after something you can find on a hike (e.g. Wren, Dahlia, Wolf). Names in books are listed in the comments! I’m excusing the random extra letters or alternate spellings for these lol

please add any suggestions!!!

Books with female main characters that have to do with space travel in some form.

I love a good retelling (from fairy tales to classic novels). If you are looking for a great retelling, this list is for you!

Fairytale and folktale retellings and reimaginings

All books, novellas and graphic novels in the Lunar Chronicles series!

The top 100 best books of the 2010’s as voted for by Goodreads members

Top five: 5) The Martian 4) Gone Girl 3) Divergent 2) Mockingjay

1. The Fault in Our Stars

series + standalones for those who rewind when darcy flexes his hand. let me know what i’m missing so i can read it and share in the agony. most of these are not the first in the series for obvious reasons.

yeah these are just books i really liked okay (the thrashers is like an honorable mention..not on the same level of peak as the rest but good enough to make it)

Marissa Meyer books, NOT Stephanie Meyer

Name generators my beloveds. Just a list made by someone whose D&D characters were mostly christened with the help of RNG. The one and only criterion: Title is a first/given name (or nickname too)! Some are verified by the book actually containing a character with that name.

You know the story all too well. Or so you thought! lol

These reimaginings have you thinking about the themes, plots, and characters years after finishing the final chapter.

Such an underrated genre in my opinion. These are books I've read and on my TBR, feel free to recommend more!

Some of the Disney retale books… Princesses and Villains

magic systems that are unique (and maybe a bit dangerous) and the ruling class are comparable to a viper's nest.

My favorite thieves, charming liars, and plotters who are three steps ahead (unfortunately, I'm in love with them)

beloved tales in new gowns
