Our favorite titles won't be found on your typical bestseller list. They are a reflection of what's on our mind, in our hearts, and our diverse personal interests.
Mara always has more books to read and that's exactly how she likes it. There is a deliciousness to the books ahead of her and she is notoriously unfaithful reading several titles at a time. Literary fiction? Yes please, but also Science Fiction, Queer Romance, Non-Fiction, Memoirs, and whatever she's reading to her daughters for bedtime. Click here to see Mara's full list of favorites.
Marisa has just the right amount of books, but never the right amount of time to read them all. When she gets the chance, you can find her reading fiction, poetry, novels in translation, social justice books and family epics alongside a good post-apocalyptic story. To cleanse her palate after all that heavy stuff, a good rom-com usually does the trick. She's working on getting more non-fiction into the rotation, but it's slow going.
