YM ADVISES Favorite Books to Read Sometimes I Lie by Alice Feeney - Lily Walsh, Creative Director I’m not a huge reader so I need something that will keep me coming back, and this book has so many unexpected twists that kept me engaged. Would highly recommend it if you like psychological thrillers! Flower Children by Maxine Swann - Lillian Cohen, Editor in Chief Reading about the gaggle of children, raised by their free-range hippie parents, makes me nostalgic about my own childhood, as if I had lived it myself. Short but slow and sweet. The Silent Patient

As much as I hate the term, this book is an actual page-turner. Non-stop thrills and twists. Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn -
Jess Ferguson, Co-Copy Chief
was curious to read the book it was based on, especially because I’m a fan of Gillian Flynn’s other books. I’d recommend it for people who like slow-burning mysteries, especially if you liked Gone Girl, which is also by Flynn. Normal People by Sally Rooney - Emily King, Photo Director I read this book in a period of two days because I couldn’t put it down. The writing was so real and relatable, and yes, I did cry. The book centers around the themes of toxic relationships, abuse, friendship, codependence, and more. I would say it’s a fast-paced read, so if you like those, you’re in a reading slump, or looking for a genuinely good book, I would recommend it!
