January 2021, it's our anniversary!
I think what I’d most recommend is Luster and Mexican Gothic. Red Pill is great if you feel up to paying close attention and being challenged, and the quitting alcohol book, we’ve been over. Read it if you want! Also, especially if you live in Seattle, support BeeLyn Naihiwet by ordering her book.

Exciting Times and Sounds Like Titanic were both so damn good. You’ll hear a lot of Sally Rooney comparisons with Exciting Times, but I much preferred this to Normal People, if that helps. And don’t let the Titanic reference scare you away! It’s much more than it seems.
July 2020, a series of rapid question marks
Hmm, I'd recommend quite a bit this month. The Lost Girls of Camp Forevermore, Followers, There, There, and Party of Two, which is actually a greater recommendation for all of Guillory's books. And honestly if you haven't read Their Eyes Were Watching God in your whole life, prioritize that.
June 2020, and Black lives still matter
Everyone, especially people who love and appreciate literature, should own a copy of The Source of Self-Regard: Selected Essays, Speeches, and Meditations by Toni Morrison to reference. Both of Janet Mock's books, I'd recommend to just about anyone.
May 2020, still inside and i accidentally quit audiobooks
I read quite a few books this month but don't have as many "you absolutely must read this book" recommendations this month. My two favorite things I read this month were Kerry Winfrey's Love and Other Alien Experiences and Levine and Heller's Attached. I also adored Kiley Reid's Such a Fun Age.
