A content creator who has read 150 books this year has revealed their top five recommendations. With the dark evenings and chilly temperatures here to stay for the foreseeable, there’s no better feeling than making it to the end of a weekday and making yourself cosy.
For some, this involves lighting some candles, enjoying a warm bath or watching your favourite TV series. Meanwhile, for others, an ideal night in means curling up with a good book, whether that be a nail-biting thriller or a cosy romance novel. But while reading is just a casual hobby for some, for others it’s a huge part of their daily routine. Even in just a quick scroll through BookTok, you’ll discover content creators flying through as many 50, 100 and even 150 books in a year.
Liz, who goes by @everypageturned on TikTok, is one such reader. In a video posted last month, she revealed she’d already read 150 books in 2024 with a month to go before the end of the year. She shared her top five reads of the year, explaining: “All five of these books if I did not cry, I teared up or thought about it for days afterwards. So read these if you have not yet. They are very good books.”.
Liz clarified that her ranking was “in no particular order”, adding that it’s “because I could never actually rank them in order because they all have different spots in my heart”. With that in mind, here are Liz’s recommendations. If historical fiction is your thing, Liz recommends ‘The Women’ by Kristin Hannah. This novel follows a young woman who chooses to enlist as a nurse in the Vietnam War after her older brother is killed in action.
