📚We are continuing our series of recommendations for literature to read in English.

🧷“The Fault in Our Stars” by John Green
This book tells the story of Hazel, a girl who has cancer and has almost given up hope on her life. She then meets Augustus Waters, a cancer survivor, who hangs out with her and tries to help her to gather strength.

🧷“The Power” by Naomi Alderman
This is a gender-twisting dystopian novel in which young women discover they have immense electrical power that could be used for good, but unsurprisingly is more often harnessed for evil.

🧷“We Were Liars” by E. Lokhart
The book centers on the theme of the consequences of one's mistakes. It is centered on the wealthy, seemingly perfect Sinclair family, who spend every summer sitting gathered on their private island. However, not every summer is the same….

🧷“Ready player one” by Ernest Cline
It tells a story of individual achievement and success, yet it also highlights the importance of alliances, teamwork, and community.
