I mostly read memoirs or contemporary fiction. Sometimes I dip my feet in fantasy. Also, there’s a place in my heart for middle grade books

Based on the title i thought this was going to be a negative post, such as, which dusty old classic did your teacher make you read in high school that you hated so much you never wanted to read again?

Reply to What do you care about in a book? by pw_librarian
I like books about the human condition. I also like books that give me the chance to live in the life of a setting I’ve never lived before, such as, what it would be like to be a culinary student in Paris.

I often feel nostalgia for The Clique series. I’ve tried rereading them… they’re not great through an adults eyes. But I read those ALLLLL through middle school.

Those books are great when you first start them. But the author seems to be a one-trick pony and the series did not need to be as long as it was. I also got to book 9 or 10 and stopped because they were becoming so repetitive.
