5⭐ Audit | What Do My Favourite Books Have in Common?

could we call 11 22 63 portal fantasy okay well Goodreads just informed me that was actually a 2016 read so even though I just said I can't stand by it I think I'm putting it in here

it's the ones that are more mundane Severance the children's Bible Leave the World Behind

the house at the bottom of a lake obviously it's their obsession with the house that drives them to continue going underwater

but it also exists in like a curious beginning

my heart is a chainsaw I think I made this realization with Alice's Island

I keep passing by all of these non-fiction books and trying to figure out like how I could categorize them men we've reaped and between the world and me disfigured and the skin we're in eating animals Cosmos

the book of the most precious substance she works in rare book

I think also bunny we could call that's also one that Finley Donovan and Jamila green would fit into

Daphne is about the obsession of not thinking about Daphne

death in her hands the obsession with this mystery

dial a for aunties that's another one they work in the wedding business so the whole thing takes place pretty much on a wedding weekend

eating animals has to do with Jonathan saffron Four's own history with eating animals his perspective but also talks a lot about the meat industry

there's a list of like all of the eight perfect murders in fiction and the murderer in the story is going through the list one by one so the book follows the Journey of going through the list so you can anticipate what's going to happen

erotic stories for punjabi widows this one's a four and a half

the every heart a doorway series is what introduced me to portal fantasy well maybe not introduce me but as an adult introduced me

everyone in this room will some baby dead that is a mistaken identity one where someone thinks she's there for a job interview like that's my favorite setup

Finley Donovan is killing it naturally

I recently read finna so I'll pop that in here

summer of salt girls burn brighter our wives under the sea is a good one for that

girls of paper and fire these two women are both consorts so even in the most dire circumstances is love prevails I think is the theme

probably one of the first wedding related Thrillers I've read was the guest list right here

we've also got a y a in here with honey and ishu's guide to fake dating

happy for you is about a wedding party leading up to a wedding you're invited

right here we've got honey and spice we've got the Wedding Crasher we've got The Bodyguard

I would say House of hunger does that as well because she is introduced to a new Society a new role

I'm trying not to flip to a spoiler you know some leaves but there's just interesting things to look at

I guess how high we go in the dark could also fit there because it's about the end of the world and people dying

illuminae there's illuminae

just last year even Jamila green ruins everything she's an author

it's the ones that are more mundane Severance the children's Bible Leave the World Behind

I would also say lock every door and the turn of the key maybe that's why those are two of my favorite Thrillers is because they have that idea of being responsible for this house these children that they are completely unfamiliar with and they just have to figure it out

I keep passing by all of these non-fiction books and trying to figure out like how I could categorize them men we've reaped and between the world and me disfigured and the skin we're in eating animals Cosmos

woman eating I think you could even call middle game a story of obsession

the cabin at the end of the world one of the crusted snow oh also the dreamers

how Mrs death misses death is death being the narrator of the story

my heart is a chainsaw I think I made this realization with Alice's Island

we could pull in never World Wake which is like a Time loop I love a Time Loop

that's true with my most recent five star nothing to see here because she is now in charge of these children and has to stop them from spontaneously combusting

I love stories about question so we could pull migrations down here and once there were wolves obsessions with nature and the future of the world

I had recently recommended una out of order which is I think a time travel story where she is coming into her life at different moments and has to like organize her life

summer of salt girls burn brighter our wives under the sea is a good one for that

the pallbearers Club is also an author it's written as a memoir so that kind of feels mixed media too

Sea of Tranquility by Emily St John Mandel that one is about an author

seven days in June but that's another reason I wanted to do this in here rather than Goodreads because there's some 4.5s that I think should count in my five-star area

if we do look at a lot of my favorite end of the world stories it's the ones that are more mundane Severance

sign here which was a high four for me being about like hell and somebody working in hell and waiting for the next person to sign over their life

like in six stories you know there's going to be six episodes of a podcast so you know what to anticipate

maybe even sorrow land would fit for that

summer of salt girls burn brighter our wives under the sea is a good one for that

maybe the seven and a half deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle because it's about solving a death but also it plays with time

a family's alone in a cabin and people show up saying that the world is ending and bad things are about to happen

Cosmos by Chandra Prescott Weinstein she is talking about her journey through this career path and also is talking about dark matter and particle physics

I need to find the hollow places because that's another one Riley had on her list for portal fantasy

I feel like this was kicked off with reading things like the selection and The Hunger Games where you start with a certain number of people and you know they're going to be picked off one by one

Addie LaRue feels like it would be something that fits into here really well where she can't die

the Midnight Library that's more about living different lives and I think I could actually have a different category where we kind of talk about that

any book with a podcast would also count so the night swim is coming to mind

in the one by John Mars you have a variety of couples and they're all like going through the same thing they're all choosing to take this DNA test or they've taken this DNA test to see if they're compatible like who their perfect match is so each chapter follows each of the couples and it's a very organized story

I feel like this was kicked off with reading things like the selection and The Hunger Games where you start with a certain number of people and you know they're going to be picked off one by one

I keep passing by all of these non-fiction books and trying to figure out like how I could categorize them men we've reaped and between the world and me disfigured and the skin we're in eating animals Cosmos

most recently the stars in the Blackness between them women's love prevails

I would also say lock every door and the turn of the key maybe that's why those are two of my favorite Thrillers is because they have that idea of being responsible for this house these children that they are completely unfamiliar with and they just have to figure it out

I talked about this recently when I've reread recently two years ago with the undomestic Goddess that was one of my first I guess introductions to this idea

I feel like the Wicker king would also count out so we'll pop that up

the beautiful ones by Sylvia Mourinho Garcia also has like a fake relationship marriage of convenience Vibe

Watch Over Me by Nina lacour also has the dead as main characters

when the Reckoning comes like that's a more traditional ghost story

a lot of my favorite queer books follow women and they follow female relationships or even female friendship at any cost like Wilder girls even though they're in this difficult circumstance like their friendship and their relationship is something that makes them want to continue on

woman eating I think you could even call middle game a story of obsession
