Reading is like a toppled domino maze lined up on the floor. When you come across your first read, that book would generally point you to other ones you can’t miss out on.
Through books, we discover the richest treasures of wisdom woven in every storyline. But also, they can act as great companions whether we need a friend or not. They represent vast roles coming from different fields and eras embedded in each story.
The dilemma of choosing the right book to purchase amongst the many good ones is a tough compromise to make. But more often than not, being an indecisive bookworm is a normal thing. If you still don’t know which book to pick up next, here’s a list that matches what you need right now.
The need to rediscover yourself as a creative
Austin Kleon’s Steal Like An Artist
In Austin Kleon’s words, this is a book talking to a previous version of himself. It is a straightforward yet humorous autobiography that lets an artist realize the truth of becoming one. Steal Like An Artist is a self-help read that can be your honest answer to rediscovering yourself as a creative.
You don’t have to read the course straight through. In fact, every page can be a daily reminder to rediscover your creativity. Written with a unique font style, graphic designs, illustrations, and positive messages, you will definitely understand how you could also steal like an artist—not literally, of course.
The need to stay updated
Colleen Hoover’s It Starts With Us
Assured you that you will not have a hard time finding this in any bookstore because this was a recent release by cult-favorite author, Colleen Hoover. If you remember the tear-jerking story of Lily Bloom, Ryle Kincaid, and Atlas, this book is what you’ve been waiting for. Trending by itself, it is a continuation of Atlas and Lily’s suppressed story from book one. If you are team Atlas after reading It Ends with Us, then this is Colleen Hoover’s gift for you. A Young-Adult Fiction sequel that will not just satisfy you with romances but brimming also with lessons of acceptance, healing, and forgiveness.
Even actress Kathryn Bernardo loves Colleen Hoover, as proven by one of her Instagram posts saying that It Ends With Us made her feel fragile and speechless.

Eleanor Oliphant makes for an easy read with some reflection on the side.
Former MYX host Nikki Gil even included this book in her personal #nikkireads list.
The need for adventure
Narnia by C.S. Lewis
Whether or not it’s your first time reading this, Narnia has always been a staple when it comes to longing for a bit of adventure in life. Now you may want to be part of Narnia’s epic journey while indulging your contemporary cultural understanding of how Lewis does it with science fiction.
If you are more of a movie person than a reader, you should first check out the Disney film adaptations of The Chronicles of Narnia. Maybe that would convince you to join the Narnia universe and give the book a read — remember what the unpopular opinion says, fall in love first with the characters in the film then you might crave some more classic adventure.
