📚 What I’m Reading (and Re-reading)

Books shape the way I think, write, and dream up stories. Whether it's a fiction novel that cracked me open or a non-fiction gem I keep quoting in conversation, this list is a mix of what’s moved me, challenged me, or simply made me fall in love with language again.

I’m drawn to bold voices, layered characters and ideas that stay with you long after the last page.

Got a book I should read next? I’m always looking for my next obsession. Reach out anytime — stories are meant to be shared.
