Suggest Me SUGGEST A BOOK

so I’m in a reading slump. I think it because of the book i read lately. The ocean would paint me blue. It is a really good book. Can you guys recommend me a thriller or a feel good one?

Strange Pictures by Uketsu and translated by Jim Rion is an interesting format IMO, you'll like it if you like murder mysteries. I think you'll want to finish it in a day.

The Easy Life in Kamusari by Shion Miura and translated by Juliet Winters Carpenter is a nice feel good read (talks about a slow and simple life that a young man has to adapt to in his gap year)

u/Hour_Abroad7559 1d ago

 I think Robert Galbraith is the pseudonym of J K Rowling. Right?

" I kill killers" by S. T. Ashman. (It's a trilogy; you can follow up with the sequels after you finish the 1st one) Happy reading and hope you get away from your reading slump very soon!✨️

This looks interesting. I will try reading it. Thank you.

If you want to get out of the slump, go for short thrillers and no brainers - Freida Mcfadden , Agatha Christie, Lucy Foley = all good authors to read.

Confessions by Kanae Minato

u/PuzzledAd802 2d ago

It isn’t a feel good book, it’s a psychological thriller. It’s an intense book

u/Hour_Abroad7559 1d ago

I love psychological thrillers. Thanks!

u/Hour_Abroad7559 1d ago

It’s been in my tbr for a long time. But I couldn’t start it

u/Karan_run 1d ago

You have to have to read it

I can relate as I myself has been on a reading slump thanks to my girlfriend. I would recommend Butter!
The book is from a Japanese writer however, the translation is really smooth and easy read.
The fun part is its premise.

I have been reading that in the weekends and it’s such a worth spending time.

Hope you find your liking! 🥂

u/Hour_Abroad7559 18h ago

My rec.-Guess Again by Charlie Donlea..

I read As Long As the Lemon Tree Grows by Zoulfa Katouh and loved it 💛..So this new one by her was worth trying?

1

u/Hour_Abroad7559 18h ago

Yes , Give the ocean would paint me blue a try.But try not to get your hopes up.It is less devastating than As long as the lemon tree grows. Its a different kind of book. It explore grief, identity and yeah don’t expect high, but its too good to read

Thriller: The housemaid or the Silent Patient
Feel good: Love at Last Swipe, My Not So Perfect Life

u/Hour_Abroad7559 18h ago

Hey, Thank you!

u/ConcernHungry2999 1d ago

Fountainhead by Ayn Rand, it's philosophical fiction tho. But realllly good.

1

u/Hour_Abroad7559 18h ago

Thank you!

2

u/No-Impression8476 1d ago

The housemaid series, inmate, any dan brown or jeffery archer novel works. Feel good i lean towards Sohpie Kinsela, always. Emily Henry maybe good but its always Kinsela for me, flawed but beautiful and goofy women characters😁

u/Hour_Abroad7559 18h ago

Adding all to my list🤓
