What to Read Next: 25 Books I Always Recommend

I’m often asked, “what should I read next?” or “what are your all-time favorite books?” and that’s exactly why I created Bookish Flights.

As a lifelong reader, books have always been my go-to escape. I might not be up on the latest movie releases or trending shows, but when it comes to books? I’ve got you covered.

This list isn’t a declaration of the “greatest books of all time.” Rather, it’s a collection of the stories I can’t stop thinking about — the ones I’ve recommended more times than I can count and that continue to live rent-free in my head.

Whether you're looking for your next unforgettable read or just want to see what books have shaped my reading life, I hope this guide inspires you to discover a new favorite.

And if you’ve enjoyed Bookish Flights or this list, it would mean the world if you left a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts. Your support helps more readers like you find the show — and helps us keep these bookish conversations going.

Happy Reading!
