Traveler's Gift — The Traveler’s Gift is in the genre that I like to call modern-day fables. It is a story that tells a lesson. Several Mitch Albom books are in this genre, along with The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I enjoy reading those kind of books as I feel they stay with me longer because I’m pondering over the lesson the book was trying to teach.

Queen's Gambit — I really enjoyed listening to The Queen’s Gambit. It’s a fascinating coming of age story about a chess phenom who has very few people to guide her in life outside of chess. She falls to several addictions and has trouble keeping relationships.

Midnight Sun — Fans of the Twilight series will love getting this taste of Edward’s story. I would recommend starting with Twilight and reading Midnight Sun after reading the other books.

Braving the Wilderness — If there was ever a time for a book like Braving the Wilderness, it’s now. I would highly encourage every adult to read and ponder what Brown is suggesting. We need connection more than ever.
