Favorite Book The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Díaz; Slouching towards Bethlehem by Joan Didion; Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. I also love getting lost in fantasy series... the worlds of V. E. Schwab, J.R.R. Tolkein, and Pierce Brown are some of my favorites, and I'm always looking for new recommendations!
