Not all books get to exist in your head split - complimentary .
Note : This post check mentions of intimate assault , rape , drug addiction , and mental health struggles .
As a self-proclaimed bookworm, there are so many books that I enjoyed but very few that I’d label as “unforgettable.”
With that in mind, IaskedtheBuzzFeed Communitywhat books they can’t get out of their heads, and here’s what they shared:
1.The Secret Historyby Donna Tartt
" This Good Book always shocked me , from every unmarried type interaction to the rationality why they did the things they did . One of my favorite Quran of all time . Totally not what I have a bun in the oven , it ’s truly brilliant . "
