Recs if you like Florence Adler Swims Forever...
what IS in a name?
books w/ full names in the title (mostly fiction)
characters that haunt the narrative
I'm including books where a character's presence is minimal and every character, conflict, and theme leads back to them. Their absence feels loud. Their past decisions shape the present.
Open for recommendations that meet these parameters 💓 I haven't read all the books in this list but feel fairly confident about their inclusion here, if you believe one of these doesn't fit feel free to discuss in the comments
" I can't... See my face?! "
— Characters on the cover (probably)
Books with covered faces (partial, mostly or fully!) of most/all of the characters on the cover!
recs are welcome! :)
family matters
from multi-generational tales to sibling sagas!
What's your name again?
Titles with full character's name. I haven't read all of those books, and I'm open to suggestions.
Swimmers in Fiction
Books that feature major characters that are competitive/athletic swimmers.
Book Club Fiction
Books to yap about with your friends from Simon & Schuster.
Proof that grief is a universal experience
Books that contain some sort of grief story line. Someone has died, someone is grieving, someone is trying to move forward or find closure. Normalizing grief and proof that it demands to be felt. These are books that could be preferred over "traditional" grief books that can be too heavy and technical on a grieving brain but help a griever feel seen and understand their own grief more.
roll call
books with full names in the title; all genres
