    S1E02: Books I LOVED in 2023!

    Hello, and welcome to the second episode of The Plot Twist! In this episode, I talk about the best books I read in 2023! My reading journey last year was... varied to say the least! I flip-flopped from classic works of gothic horror to reflective pieces of Japanese literature, and even to Nordic poetry. Maybe you'll find your next read tucked away in this little treasure trove. (Well, I hope you do, because then I've done my job). I hope you enjoy listening! Please follow The Plot Twist's Instagram page here!
