[Top Ten Tuesday] Ten Comfort Reads, Books I Love to Reread

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

Well, when we don't have any idea about what to read, sometimes rereading our favourite book could be the best option. So, here we go. I would like to share some of the books that I love to reread when I need some escape.

Ps, most of it will be Indonesian books or manga

1. My Faded First Love (Kieta Hatsukoi) - Wataru Hinekure

I think, at this point, I won't hesitate to read Kiekoi again and again. The story is so wholesome and Aoki-Ida is indeed a very sweet couple. I still despise how they decided to end the manga next month, I still wanna read more about their story. Hope the author will take a further decision to continue this manga.

2. Harry Poter Series - J.K. Rowling

I mean, Harry Potter is one of my all time favourite series. So, it's not surprising if I choose this series as one of my comfort reads. The fantasy is great and not as high as LOTR for example. I still couldn't finish LOTR until now. Maybe high fantasy is just hard for me to digest.

3.Trilogi Mawar Merah (Red Roses Trilogy) - Luna Torashyngu

Mawar Merah is one of my all time favourite teen lit books. The story is about a female assassin, moreover, in Indonesia's setting, it's very rare to be found. Therefore, its uniqueness is the element that made this book my comfort read.

4. Eiffel, Tolong! (Eiffel, Help!) - Clio Freya

Another teen lit book that I really love. I could say that this book is the book that introduce me to an online book community. Therefore,  Eiffel, Tolong! is very memorable for me. The story is quite light even though there is a lot of uniqueness there. I mean, who would think about a spy story in the middle of Paris?

5. Let Go - Windhy Puspitadewi

This book is a book that I would love to reread because the friendship story is amazing. Sadly, it's hard for me to find a copy of it. The physical version has no longer available and the digital version is nowhere to be found. Sigh.

6. Restart - Nina Ardianti

For me, Restart is one of my favourite contemporary romances. I just love how Nina Ardianti tells her story. It's engaging and not confusing. I love how drama Syiana is and Fedrian is just a gorgeous male lead character.

7. Omen Series - Lexie Xu

Of every series made by Lexie Xu, my comfort reads would be the Omen Series. This horror story is a series that I didn't expect to like. Then, the twist in every story is also unexpected.

8. Dear Dylan - Stephanie Zen

The story about a celebrity who falls in love with a fan maybe sounds so cliche. But I found out that this book is interesting. The way Stephanie Zen portrayed both Dylan and Alice's stories is really great. I don't feel bored when reading it.

9. Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles Series) - Marissa Meyer

Well, for now, if I want to reread something, I remember that this series is worth rereading. I love how Meyer turns the fairytale story into a modern version. Therefore, this story is captivating in some way. 

10. Fly to the Sky - Nina Ardianti, Moemoe Rizal

I don't know how many times I reread this book. Fly to the Sky, is really my comfort book. Edyta with her quirkiness and Ardian who is quiet but charming at the same time. Since I have the physical of it, I always choose Fly to the Sky whenever I got a reading slump.

Well, that's all for my story today. 7/10 of it is an Indonesian book. So, maybe you will have interested to read them. 

Sincerely,

Ra
