Don’t feel like you should pause putting out content because of the tragedy that is happening. People need an escape and something to look forward to. It’s ok to be that bright spark for someone!
Harry Potter is probably the reason 90% of kids start getting into reading. That was the 1st picture-less book I owned when I was a kid and I still reread the series till this day
These recommendations are going to come in so helpful! 🙌🏻 my current read is Anne Franks’ Diary and it’s brilliant! Edit: if anyone is interested it’s actually called The Diary of a Young Girl ☺️
I love anything from Jane Austen and all the Harry Potter books too ❤️ But I absolutely love that you mentioned the Alchemist because it’s the first book my dad ever gave me as a kid and it changed my outlook forever. During this quarantine I’m reading Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and it’s such a positive book! 😊
SO glad you decided to post a RUclips video! I can not describe how much I’ve missed you/them!!! Thank you for this 🤩 what an incredible woman you are lil! Hope you and your family are well & safe. Sending all the love 🌟💕🌟💕
LOVE this and already added some of these books to my to-read-list. My recommendations for you and anyone interested: Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind (one of my all time favorites) and The Bad Girl by Mario Vargas Llosa. :)
I just love lily. That is all I have to say really. Her personality omg, imagine being her friend or her daughter or her sister or omggg just to know her gahhhh
Yes! Please continue to post! There are so many great at home videos you can do- q&a’s, reacting to impressions, embarrassing stories, story times, day in your life at home.... love your vids! Stay safe 💗
I love the book”the courage to be disliked”, so simple and plain but so freaking inspirational, maybe you have already read it🤣always love Lily and Lily’s video💗
I would recommend Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver. It’s probably my favorite book and I read it every spring. I think you would like it, Lily. I also love rereading Harry Potter. And The Mitford Series by Jan Karon, these help when I’m feeling anxious or sad. These are all my comfort books along with The Chronicles of Narnia. You might Rolling Thunder about the Native American Medicine Man and Conversations with the Arch Druid. The Alexandria Quartet by Lawrence Durrell are also at the top of my list for literature. Beautiful rich language. Highly recommend it. I’m reading a book called The Elephant Whisperer. I love it! 💗 🐘🐘🐘🐘 💗
Well thanks for asking Lily - I’ve just reread ‘it isn’t all mink’ by the original directrice of the haute couture at Pierre Balmain, Ginette Spanier. The second half is full of hilarious details and anecdotes about working in the 1950s haute couture, the so called golden age, including about her close friends Marlene Dietrich + Noel Coward. She writes things about people you wouldn’t get away with today. However, the first half of the book covers - apart from her upbringing - the years she spent on the run from the nazis in occupied France during ww2. Her and her new husband were both Jewish. Talk about being resourceful .. She published two other books - long road to freedom which goes into more detail about her ww2 experience + and now it’s sables, about her US lecture tour career when she became a well known personality in the 1960s. All three are still available on Amazon. Would highly recommend. A timely mix of amusing escapism + inspiring spirit in the face of adversity. Enjoy 😉😀👍👍👍
Would love to see a video on your movie recommendations since I know you're a huge Star Wars fan, so obviously you have good taste in films! Sending good energy to you and your family during this time!
Loved this! I've always been a reader for as long as I can remember, but reading the Fifty Shades of Grey books is what really got me obsessively back into reading. I think I read the series about three times. Same with the Twilight series. So good! I mainly love reading about history, biographies & contemporary romance, but open to all. There really is nothing better than losing yourself in a good book and freeing your mind! Thanks for sharing, Lily! I'm intrigued by some that you showed in your collection I never knew of & can't wait to read them.
Hi Lily from Washington state ! I recently started reading " Making A Life : Working By Hand and Designing the Life You Are Made to Live " by Melanie Falick. It's all about creating by hand,how transformative it is, interviews of different artists/designers/makers and is so inspiring. Thanks to this book I have committed to creating art every day, watercolor, colored pencil,sketching,photography. I also am finishing Patrick Leigh Fermor's book " Between the Woods and the Water " which is part of a three book series of walking across Europe in 1934. This particular book is about walking through Hungary and Romania and is fascinating and beautifully written. You can't go wrong with anything by him ! I feel most of us who can stay at home,are safe,well,fed and taking precautions are extremely lucky at this time. In Zagreb,the capital of Croatia, there were three high magnitude earthquakes last Sunday and a lot of damage there ( my family is from there ). So things could always be worse. Thank you for your funny and uplifting video, we all appreciate and look forward to them. Don't grab the Dixie mug !
When you started talking about your love for WW2 stories, I was waiting for 'All the light we cannot see'! What a beautiful book. Made such an impact. Everything that I want after a good read. Stopped me in my tracks :)
Hi Lily 😘❤️. Loved the video. Wanted to see your full bookshelf. I recommend all books by Khaled Hosseini - “The Kite Runner”, “A thousand splendid suns”, “And the mountains echoed”. You need a box of tissues next to you. Also “And then there were none” by Agatha Christie. “To kill a mockingbird” by Harper Lee. “Alias Grace” by Margaret Atwood. “The devotion of suspect X” by Keigo Higashino. “Black water Lillies” by Michel Bussi.
A really fun, funny, and action-packed fantasy series is Fablehaven--Lily, it's the kind of fantasy books that both your kids and you could enjoy, kind of like Harry Potter or Eragon!🤗 And a really light-hearted fairy tale series is the once upon a marigold one ♥️
Hi Lily. Here are my recommendations. World War II related: The Saboteur: The Aristocrat Who Became France’s Most Daring Anti-Nazi Commando by Paul Kix, Resistance Women by Jennifer Chiaverini, A Woman of No Importance by Sonia Purcell, and Lilac Girls and Lost Roses by Martha Hall Kelly. Books based on real events: Chariot on the Mountain by Jack Ford and Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate. Other books: Behind Her Eyes by Sarah Pinborough and Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. A classic: Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe.
I always go back to Kafka. No books move me more. Also Proust is a life changer but it's a long commitment because the books are sooo exhausting to read. Worth it though and the great thing is that there really is no story, mostly thoughts so you can just start reading from any page
Hello from Melbourne, Australia Lily. Things are becoming a little crazy down under as numbers of reported cases increased by the 100s overnight. Watching RUclips videos keeps one sane as working from home doe become a little lonely. How are you guys dealing with the current situation? xx
I would like to hear about your first times in modeling. Like your first show and your first shoot and how it went. Or how you were able to find your way through the modeling world!! Much love and best wishes for you!!💖
Lily, I met you once in Toronto. You were so nice and kind. 💛💚 Anyways, i recommend reading The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. It's my favorite book of all time!
Central Florida here🙋🏼♀️. Thanks for the video Lily! Yes, we want you to keep the videos coming. It’s nice to have new things to watch on YT while staying home. I have been home for 12 days now. I only go out once a day for a walk. It’s been challenging but we are all going to get through this. Stay strong everyone. And STAY HOME as much as possible🙏🏼🙏🏼. I have to confess, I hate to read 😩😞. I wish so bad I could enjoy it but I don’t. I’ve tried soooo many times, it never works out. I think it’s partly because my mind never stops and when I’m trying to read, no matter how interesting it is, my mind goes in 20 different directions. Thinking about all the stuff I need to do, and all the things going on etc.... I’m a very visual person, so that’s part of the issue as well. But, I always LOVED when my teachers in 5th and 6th grade, would read to us at the end of the day. I would put my head down and just get lost in their words. SO, when Audible came around I was in heaven. So I do listen to books all the time. So for those who can’t concentrate while reading try audio books!! Also, one of my all time favorite books-audio book-movie is “The Secret”! It literally changed my life. And right now with all that’s going on, I listen to it on Audible every single day while I take an hour walk outside! It’s helping me get through all this. If anyone out there hasn’t read, listened to etc... The Secret, I highly recommend you do! Video Ideas--- Maybe do some “self care” videos to help people stuck at home. Making sure to get dressed and do your skincare and makeup each day helps people feel “normal” in a not so normal world right now. Healthy eating and drink options, vitamins/supplements you recommend. At home exercise, meditation etc etc... These would be great videos for us. Thanks Lily! 🙏🏼❤️
Lily Aldridge Thanks so much for the reply Lily! I didn’t realize how long my comment was 😬😂. Anyway, no pressure on the videos. There’s enough to worry about at the moment so just do what you feel up to doing. Have a great weekend! 🙏🏼
Omg i love this video!! I got some tips for you of my favourite books if it’s not to late.. but I love all of the Nicholas sparks books, and my fave is best of me or the choice I also love the after series and the selection series!! If your in to history jojo moyes book the giver of stars is a nice love story from 1800. You’re the best😍😍 Lots of hugs from Sweden
I swear I am falling in love with you...girl crush!! The more I get to know about you, the more amazing I find you!! Am reading correspondence between Anais Nin and Henry Miller, A Literate Passion right now.. keeps me sane! How wonderful to read all the recommendations in the comment section here! Great idea!! Hi everyone!!
Hello from Denver Colorado! Thank you again for posting such great videos- I feel like you're so authentic and real! One of my favorites is Braving the Wilderness by Brene Brown, also Start With Why by Simon Sinek. For Fiction, Christopher Moore is such a great writer, Lamb is a good one!
Loved this video! I was cracking up at the bts! 🤣 Can you do a video with Carolina? Something like “cooking from home” or wine time! Miss your videos. They bring me endless laughter. Hope you and your family are well. 😉
"Beneath a Scarley Sky" by Sullivan is an awesome WWII story that is written as fiction, but is based on true events. Also, "Islands in the Stream" by Hemingway is a novel I read every summer because it reminds me so much of the season. The opening line of the book is painted on a wall in South Florida where I grew up and so the nostalgia is strong. Enjoy!
Great time to read a book called Year of Wonders. It's about a town that quarantined themselves. based on a true story. Also, a Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving. One of my favorite writers. He also wrote Cyder House Rules and World According to Garp.
I recommend The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert. It’s about botanical exploration in the 1800s, but from the perspective of a female “Natural Philosopher”. It’s a really fun book and beautifully written, it sucks you in.
I love your channel Lily. Keep posting. I need the distraction. A book I love is “The girls of slender means” by Muriel Spark, I really recommend it. I felt different after reading it. It’s set in wartime London, that’s all I’m going to say.
I love this video! :) Since you like WWII era books, here are a few great reads: Beneath a Scarlet Sky, The Hiding Place, Lilac Girls, Night, The Book Thief, The Nightingale, Unbroken, The Zookeepers Wife, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, and The Boy in the Striped Pajamas.
I love that you’re a fan of Churchill:) I really enjoy books that relate to health and medicine and what it means to live a life of quality. 1) The Center cannot hold 2) When breath becomes air 3) Frankenstein (not health but such a classic) and on that note of health and quality, I hope your family is well and stay safe!
I love that you enjoy non- fiction!!!! Iove all the books by Walter Isaacson! You would love his books, Ben Franklin, Albert Einstein, Kissinger, etc. I also like revisiting the books that I loved as a kid...Nancy Drew, Beverly Cleary, Little House on the Prairie, and Sweet Valley High! Lol I don't know why, they are just comforting to me.
I’ve been binge watching your videos recently. Loved this one as I’m a big reader myself! Maybe you could do a similar video with music-telling us about songs you like and why they’re special to you?:)
If you love books set during WWII, you would love The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton - she is an amazing storyteller. All of her books are wonderful but The Secret Keeper is especially good. Another great storyteller is Louise Penny - she has a series of 15 books that usually have a mystery involved but that revolve around the same intricately developed characters - start the series with Still Life.
I actually forgot 50 shades of gray mentions Kings of Leon! 😂. Hope you and Caleb and the whole family is doing good. Definitely tell rooster he needs to get on your RUclips and songwrite for us!!
Love your videos! So inspired by your style and taste in beauty and book! My book recs: Where the Crawdads Sing, A Man Called Ove, Yes Please, The Screwtape Letters, Three Cups of Tea, Reading Lolita in Tehran, and She Walks in Beauty(a collection of poems).
Moulin Rouge, a novel based on the life of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (American edition 1950) And right now I am reading Clair de Lune by Pierre la Mure
Great variety of books. Thanks, Lily for another fun video. A book I think you and your family will love is The Boy, the mole, the fox and the horse by Charlie Mackesy. It’s mainly gorgeous illustrations together with beautiful, thoughtful dialogs and life lessons. In his Instagram you’ll be able to see some parts of the book. Honestly, one of my favourites. The other book I really enjoyed was World War Z by Max Brooks (nothing like the movie - it was rubbish). A zombie apocalyptic novel written as a collection of individual accounts narrated by an agent of the United Nations Postwar Commission, following the devastating global conflict against the zombie plague. You feel you’re reading a history book that based on fantasy. First book please get the hard copy as it’s just stunning 😊❤️
Hi Lily, I can recommend The Light Between Oceans. It's a wonderful read that you cant put down. I'm just about to read The Book of Gutsy Women by the Clinton ladies. Definitely going to get myself a copy of the Alchemist thanks for the recommend. Take care and stay safe. X

Harry Potter is probably the reason 90% of kids start getting into reading. That was the 1st picture-less book I owned when I was a kid and I still reread the series till this day
You need to get Caleb to go through some of his favorite artwork or maybe show you how to write a song
These recommendations are going to come in so helpful! 🙌🏻 my current read is Anne Franks’ Diary and it’s brilliant! Edit: if anyone is interested it’s actually called The Diary of a Young Girl ☺️
Thank you! X
Omg I read that!!! It’s SOOO good!
Lol I think 90% of the world's population knows about that book. Thought everybody read it in middle school?
Thanks to RUclips for suggesting me this channel 😇 Thank you Lily for spreading positive vibes. 💕
You’re just such a breath of fresh air every time 🍃 keep safe Lily and fam ☘️

Christine Ong yes! One of the most beautiful books I’ve read.

I love anything from Jane Austen and all the Harry Potter books too ❤️ But I absolutely love that you mentioned the Alchemist because it’s the first book my dad ever gave me as a kid and it changed my outlook forever. During this quarantine I’m reading Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and it’s such a positive book! 😊
The Alchemist also my all time favorite book. It changes my life. when life get rough i reread it so i can feel better again.

LOVE this and already added some of these books to my to-read-list. My recommendations for you and anyone interested: Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind (one of my all time favorites) and The Bad Girl by Mario Vargas Llosa. :)
Alicia Martínez Perfume! One of the best!!!
Finally an interesting video during this quarantine. THANK YOU! If you ever decided to start a book club I’d be SO in! ❤️
I know you’ve mentioned it as being one of your favorites before on Instagram, but The Four Agreements is probably my favorite book. Mind blowing. 🤯
Hi from Argentina ❤️ Pride and Predjuice by Jane Austen is my fav book
I just love lily. That is all I have to say really. Her personality omg, imagine being her friend or her daughter or her sister or omggg just to know her gahhhh

Don't stop. We love your content. Thank you Lily!
The Seven Husbands or Evelyn Hugo! Such a quick read 💚 I love it so much I read it twice in a year.
"Life of the Beloved"-Henri Nouwen, "Captivating" - John + Stasi Eldridge, "Chronicles of Narnia"- CS Lewis!
I love the book”the courage to be disliked”, so simple and plain but so freaking inspirational, maybe you have already read it🤣always love Lily and Lily’s video💗
I would recommend Prodigal Summer by Barbara Kingsolver. It’s probably my favorite book and I read it every spring. I think you would like it, Lily.
I also love rereading Harry Potter. And The Mitford Series by Jan Karon, these help when I’m feeling anxious or sad. These are all my comfort books along with The Chronicles of Narnia.
You might Rolling Thunder about the Native American Medicine Man and Conversations with the Arch Druid.
The Alexandria Quartet by Lawrence Durrell are also at the top of my list for literature. Beautiful rich language. Highly recommend it.
I’m reading a book called The Elephant Whisperer. I love it! 💗 🐘🐘🐘🐘 💗
I see a copy of Shantaram on your shelf! one of the best books I've ever read :) Life changing books - Frankenstein, The Shock Doctrine, The Road.
Well thanks for asking Lily - I’ve just reread ‘it isn’t all mink’ by the original directrice of the haute couture at Pierre Balmain, Ginette Spanier.
The second half is full of hilarious details and anecdotes about working in the 1950s haute couture, the so called golden age, including about her close friends Marlene Dietrich + Noel Coward. She writes things about people you wouldn’t get away with today.
However, the first half of the book covers - apart from her upbringing - the years she spent on the run from the nazis in occupied France during ww2. Her and her new husband were both Jewish. Talk about being resourceful ..
She published two other books - long road to freedom which goes into more detail about her ww2 experience + and now it’s sables, about her US lecture tour career when she became a well known personality in the 1960s.
All three are still available on Amazon. Would highly recommend. A timely mix of amusing escapism + inspiring spirit in the face of adversity. Enjoy 😉😀👍👍👍
Love you lily 🥰 beauty and brains.
Would love to see a video on your movie recommendations since I know you're a huge Star Wars fan, so obviously you have good taste in films! Sending good energy to you and your family during this time!
moonlight bae great idea, I could talk about Star Wars all day!!
I think the impersonation of Winston Churchill is perfect!! ❤❤!!
*Also please keep uploading your videos, they have such happy vibes to them! I think we all need that right now 🥰 stay safe!
Tks for checking in with us Lily. Love from Ireland. Stay safe.

Great choices! You’re such a joy💜 I would recommend “Gone with the Wind” 😌😌😌
Loved the Alchemist as well, it’s time for a re-read!
Hi Lily from Washington state ! I recently started reading " Making A Life : Working By Hand and Designing the Life You Are Made to Live " by Melanie Falick. It's all about creating by hand,how transformative it is, interviews of different artists/designers/makers and is so inspiring. Thanks to this book I have committed to creating art every day, watercolor, colored pencil,sketching,photography. I also am finishing Patrick Leigh Fermor's book " Between the Woods and the Water " which is part of a three book series of walking across Europe in 1934. This particular book is about walking through Hungary and Romania and is fascinating and beautifully written. You can't go wrong with anything by him ! I feel most of us who can stay at home,are safe,well,fed and taking precautions are extremely lucky at this time. In Zagreb,the capital of Croatia, there were three high magnitude earthquakes last Sunday and a lot of damage there ( my family is from there ). So things could always be worse. Thank you for your funny and uplifting video, we all appreciate and look forward to them. Don't grab the Dixie mug !

superlissy90 me too!!!! 🙌
Thank you Lily! I love your videos ♥ツ "Walking From East to West" by Ravi Zacharias is an excellent read! .. I too love to read books on history!
"The Ride of a Lifetime: Lessons Learned from 15 years as CEO of the Walt Disney Company" by Robert Iger ✨
Hi Lily 😘❤️. Loved the video. Wanted to see your full bookshelf. I recommend all books by Khaled Hosseini - “The Kite Runner”, “A thousand splendid suns”, “And the mountains echoed”. You need a box of tissues next to you. Also “And then there were none” by Agatha Christie. “To kill a mockingbird” by Harper Lee. “Alias Grace” by Margaret Atwood. “The devotion of suspect X” by Keigo Higashino. “Black water Lillies” by Michel Bussi.
A really fun, funny, and action-packed fantasy series is Fablehaven--Lily, it's the kind of fantasy books that both your kids and you could enjoy, kind of like Harry Potter or Eragon!🤗 And a really light-hearted fairy tale series is the once upon a marigold one ♥️
Hi Lily. Here are my recommendations. World War II related: The Saboteur: The Aristocrat Who Became France’s Most Daring Anti-Nazi Commando by Paul Kix, Resistance Women by Jennifer Chiaverini, A Woman of No Importance by Sonia Purcell, and Lilac Girls and Lost Roses by Martha Hall Kelly. Books based on real events: Chariot on the Mountain by Jack Ford and Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate. Other books: Behind Her Eyes by Sarah Pinborough and Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. A classic: Uncle Tom’s Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe.
Food and the magazine publishing industry = Save Me the Plums by Ruth Reichl 💖 A true treat’
I always go back to Kafka. No books move me more. Also Proust is a life changer but it's a long commitment because the books are sooo exhausting to read. Worth it though and the great thing is that there really is no story, mostly thoughts so you can just start reading from any page
Hello from Melbourne, Australia Lily. Things are becoming a little crazy down under as numbers of reported cases increased by the 100s overnight.

Great time to read a book called Year of Wonders. It's about a town that quarantined themselves. based on a true story.
Also, a Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving. One of my favorite writers. He also wrote Cyder House Rules and World According to Garp.
Wuthering Heights is amazing, such a classic, I read it every year 😊😊
You make me feel good! Thanks Lily! 💋❤️
“The Universe Has Your Back” - Gabby Bernstein ! Sooo good ❤️
I recommend The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert. It’s about botanical exploration in the 1800s, but from the perspective of a female “Natural Philosopher”. It’s a really fun book and beautifully written, it sucks you in.
I love your channel Lily. Keep posting. I need the distraction. A book I love is “The girls of slender means” by Muriel Spark, I really recommend it. I felt different after reading it. It’s set in wartime London, that’s all I’m going to say.
Wow. Thankyou so much lily
Thank you for this Lily. I would recommend reading The Power Of Now by Eckhart Tolle. It's a truly powerful book.

I love that you’re a fan of Churchill:) I really enjoy books that relate to health and medicine and what it means to live a life of quality.
1) The Center cannot hold 2) When breath becomes air 3) Frankenstein (not health but such a classic) and on that note of health and quality, I hope your family is well and stay safe!
X Wen ❤️❤️❤️
That editing was soo fun! Also, I saw Murakami in there! Awesome books you got there!

ATLWCS was one of my favorite books of last year. Have you read Three Women, My Brilliant Friend or City of Girls? All fantastic♥️
You are beautiful inside and and out, such a sweet soul!! Regards from Spain
Like your petite library ; )
I love that you enjoy non- fiction!!!! Iove all the books by Walter Isaacson! You would love his books, Ben Franklin, Albert Einstein, Kissinger, etc. I also like revisiting the books that I loved as a kid...Nancy Drew, Beverly Cleary, Little House on the Prairie, and Sweet Valley High! Lol I don't know why, they are just comforting to me.
love to see a new video from lily and karlie 😌
I read 1984 last week. Just added 'All The Light You Cannot See' to my to-read list
You're the sweetest! I am so glad i found this video!
I really love Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami. It's like a juxtaposition between nostalgia and letting go.
Into the magic shop - if you want a magical, amazing read as an adult. It teaches mindfulness in the most amazing way, through a real life story xxx
Nice collection! If you like WWII books, I highly recommend The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer and Blitzed by Norman Ohler.
I’ve been binge watching your videos recently. Loved this one as I’m a big reader myself! Maybe you could do a similar video with music-telling us about songs you like and why they’re special to you?:)
Know My Name by Chanel Miller. Heartbreaking, empowering and everything in-between!
If you love books set during WWII, you would love The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton - she is an amazing storyteller. All of her books are wonderful but The Secret Keeper is especially good. Another great storyteller is Louise Penny - she has a series of 15 books that usually have a mystery involved but that revolve around the same intricately developed characters - start the series with Still Life.
I need to start reading again. Im like you lily i love reading history war books. 👁
I actually forgot 50 shades of gray mentions Kings of Leon! 😂. Hope you and Caleb and the whole family is doing good. Definitely tell rooster he needs to get on your RUclips and songwrite for us!!
"Erasure" by Percival Everett is definitely the best book I've read. It goes too far at times, but it's a masterpiece.
Love your videos! So inspired by your style and taste in beauty and book!
My book recs: Where the Crawdads Sing, A Man Called Ove, Yes Please, The Screwtape Letters, Three Cups of Tea, Reading Lolita in Tehran, and She Walks in Beauty(a collection of poems).
Moulin Rouge, a novel based on the life of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (American edition 1950)
And right now I am reading Clair de Lune by Pierre la Mure
Atomic Habits is a great read! Stay healthy! X :)
You should read Educated by Tara Westover.
davidsoa one of my favs!
The Things they carried. Great War book. Xo. Love the pjs!
Great variety of books. Thanks, Lily for another fun video. A book I think you and your family will love is The Boy, the mole, the fox and the horse by Charlie Mackesy. It’s mainly gorgeous illustrations together with beautiful, thoughtful dialogs and life lessons. In his Instagram you’ll be able to see some parts of the book. Honestly, one of my favourites. The other book I really enjoyed was World War Z by Max Brooks (nothing like the movie - it was rubbish). A zombie apocalyptic novel written as a collection of individual accounts narrated by an agent of the United Nations Postwar Commission, following the devastating global conflict against the zombie plague. You feel you’re reading a history book that based on fantasy. First book please get the hard copy as it’s just stunning 😊❤️
Hi Lily, I can recommend The Light Between Oceans. It's a wonderful read that you cant put down. I'm just about to read The Book of Gutsy Women by the Clinton ladies. Definitely going to get myself a copy of the Alchemist thanks for the recommend. Take care and stay safe. X
