Help Me Choose A Book?

I'm trying to decide on another ebook to buy for my Kindle and obviously this is a really big decision. I have a few books I'm thinking of, but feel free to recommend something not on the list. (Don't worry too much about whether it's in ebook form... I'll check.)

books are lovelytimes

(via weheartit.)

I love different books for different reasons. Some of them make me laugh; some make me cry. Some characters are like me and some are who I'd like to be, or who I'd like to be friends with, or who I never could be but can understand anyway. Sometimes it's the story and sometimes it's the characters and sometimes it's something else altogether - the setting, the voice, the themes explored. Sometimes what I love is the very idea of the book, the premise  that everything else was built upon.

Different books.
Different reasons.

I want to share with you the books I love but my reasons won't always be your reasons and my reasons won't always be the same. I know how to analyze a book, how to look at the different parts and write a review based on it. But I don't always know how to put in words the reasons why I love a certain book.

I'll work on it though. I'll work on telling you not how a book is, but what it is. What's great about it, what makes me want to read it again, what I love about it, why you should read it. Sometimes these reasons will be sweet, sometimes they'll be insane, sometimes they'll be none or all of the above.
