The Art of Engaged Reading: Fiction Companion
You've built up your skills as an engaged reader - now it's time to start reaping the benefits! Every book on this list was chosen because it's genuinely enjoyable AND hiding something underneath the surface worth finding. The goal isn't to find the "right" answer, but to trust your own instincts as a reader and see where that takes you. Start in your favorite genre - it makes close reading feel like a game, not homework. Happy Reading Boundlings!!

If you feel like you want to build up some more tools in your reading tool belt before diving in, check out the companion list The Art of Engaged Reading first!
I would LOVE for a non-fiction companion list to exist someday - but I'm NOT the right person to make that one happen!! If you are that person, you not only have my full blessing, you have my endless gratitude!!
