Persuasion by Jane Austen
4.0
Persuasion is hilarious. At one point there was so much tension I got up from the couch I was reading on and had a dance party to get all the stress out of me. I love the way Austin writes about awkwardness and interacting with people you used to love. It's all very real.

The writing style of this book is a little hard to get used to, but overall it is a very introspective story about protecting the wild and things that are real.

Men Explain Things to Me by Rebecca Solnit

Very informational and entertaining. I thought this put into words how I feel a lot, and it was nice to finally have a phrase or a description for those things.
