Looking for some stand alone book recommendations!! I’m currently n the middle of reading sooooo many series(yes I’m that person ughhh🥲), and I would love a break. I’m good with any genre. Would prefer something on kindle unlimited, as I am low on space to keep all of my physical books at home, and I am limiting myself on buying physical books unless I love them!! Thank you in advance xoxo

I understand where your coming from. I too have so many series that I have going and it can be hard to find books not in a series when that's what you've been reading.Some stand alone books:
The Baking Games- clean romance
Natural Selection by Elin
Hilderbrand- this was on Amazon monthly book picks so it should be available I would think on KU
Freida McFadden has many books that are stand alone. Hers are more thriller/suspense. Some include The teacher, The Coworker, The Crash, I think Ward D.
I just read The Orphanage By The Lake by Daniel. This I'm pretty sure is not in a series. Its a mystery, thriller, suspense. I did enjoy it but I thought the main character could have acted a bit differently since she is a P.I.
I've heard good things about Don't Believe her which is another thriller book.
Don't know if you like Colleen Hoover but I'm pretty sure many of her books are on KU.
Ali Hazelwoods books are pretty good as well.
Bride by Ali Hazelwood! it’s soooo good!! literally couldn’t put the book down i read it in one day lol
Booktok friends,Let me give you something to consider that you might never have imagined. What if social media had been available when the events of the Bible took place? What would scripture look like? For example, what if the epic battle between David and Goliath had started as Twitter beef?
My new book, "The Bible in Tweets," reimagines the Old Testament, presenting it as a series of tweet threads that acquaint readers with those ancient stories using straightforward storytelling and modern language.
Whether you’re a longtime believer, a curious skeptic, or a youth pastor searching for a Bible study tool that actually connects with teens and young adults, The Bible in Tweets delivers ancient truth in a format that makes daily scripture reading clear, quick, and surprisingly fun—without language like thee, thou, and thine.
I'm currently doing a giveaway here on Goodreads. Twenty blessed book lovers will receive the ebook for free. Maybe that list will include you!

Peace and blessings,

Thank you for all of the recommendations!!

That way, every book on your shelf will really hold a little piece of your heart. It’s so nice to own only things that we genuinely enjoy.
I go crazy for beautiful book covers when they’re truly special… but there are just too many of them!
Digital reading helps a lot — especially if you love reading under the blankets like I do :)
I’m currently reading The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han, and I can’t wait to watch the TV series too.
I started it, loved it, and then decided to stop so I could finish reading the book first.
Let me know if you don’t mind reading it too.
By the way, I’ll follow you. If you’d like, let’s be friends! :)💫
If you like nonfiction, specifically history and politics, I've heard good things about a book called "Class War, Then and Now: Essays toward a New Left." Granted, I may be biased, since I'm the author. But if you're worried about the state our world is in and are looking for hope, you can download a free copy of the book: https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/afm....

It’s not a fantasy, but it’s such a touching story.
And the movie with Mandy Moore is incredibly sweet and deep.
If you haven’t read it yet, I really, really recommend it — it stays on your skin for a long, long time. 💫
I’ve just sent you a friend request, it’d be lovely to be friends here
The Hotel Odyssey, London Nights edition Set against the electric backdrop of early-2000s London, The Hotel Odyssey takes readers deep into the glamorous yet chaotic world of five-star hospitality. Through the eyes of a young Italian who leaves home at 16 to chase success, we glimpse a city alive with ambition, temptation, mental struggles, and loss. It’s a story for anyone who’s ever worked behind the scenes, dreamed big, or found beauty in the madness of service life.
A realistic, witty, and emotional look at hotel life and nightlife culture, the mental health price and the glamour/facade that comes with luxury hospitality.

I am in desperate need of some recommendations for audio books. I am fond of mysteries, cozy mysteries, historical fiction and pretty much anything but fantasy and horror. Thank you in advance for your suggestions.

It's great that you're reading so many series! ~I would suggest trying a standalone book, with some other similar books published by the same author. This can help me sometimes to get out of rereading several series and trilogies at a time, and can help you find more to read!
Some standalone books that I loved include:
Anna Karenina (for a longer read)
Crime and Punishment (for a longer read)
Emma (for a longer read)
Frankenstein (for a longer read)
The Hobbit (for a shorter read)
The lord of the flies (for a shorter read)
animal farm (for a shorter read)
Some series that I enjoyed include:
Powerless series (4 books)
Harry Potter (7 books)
Once upon a broken heart (3 books)
The lord of the rings (3 books)
The chronicles of Narnia (6 books)
Some of these books are easier to read than others, but I hope some of them will help you decide what to read!
thank you for your time :)

What if every breath you took came with a price?That question fueled my novel Ark Debt. It's a dystopian sci-fi story set in the frozen remains of Earth, where the last survivors live in an underground Ark monitored by an all-seeing AI. Every breath, heartbeat, and calorie is tracked, and every life carries a growing debt.
Ark Debt explores what happens when survival becomes a transaction, when freedom isn’t free, and the cost of safety is your humanity.
I'm seeking authentic reviews. The book is currently free in several marketplaces, including https://www.amazon.com/Ark-Debt-Fully...
if you enjoyed Emma, you will probably enjoy the rest of Jane Austen's books ( they are all standalone), Stephen king books are also good : the shining, Salem's lot, misery are my favorites , fairytale also is good . Tolstoy's war and peace for a longer read. Hope this help 😊
I recommend a KU novel which I edited Human Seeds It gives you the pleasure of reading serialized stories, all woven into one novel.
