Reading
I read genres of Romance and Fantasy mainly and have fallen in love with the Caraval and Once Upon A Broken Heart series by Stephanie Garber who really knows how to delve into her characters and world to create a beautiful story of love between two sisters and love between a boy who does not believe he will ever get love and a girl who wants nothing but her happily ever after. I have also read The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes, the Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi, and the Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo along with many other stories either online or on paperback.
