I took part in the Tome Topple readathon, submitted two assignment, begun my dissertation and I read quite a few books for my Working Class Fictions class, and have included them in this list because I really enjoyed them.
Nell Dunn
Goodreads
This is one of three books on this list that I had to read for a module that I'm taking.
Really enjoyed this one, and the outlook of how women were viewed and were used by Nell Dunn as a conduit for the London Working Class during the 1960's.
The Gentlemen's Guide to Vice and Virtue
Mackenzie Lee
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Goodreads
I really enjoyed this one, both for its diverse rep but also for the romance that stole my heart. However, it didn't become a new favourite for me so couldn't earn those full five stars.
Strange the Dreamer (Strange the Dreamer #1)
Laini Taylor
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Goodreads
I put this on my list last month because it was a reread and I had read 3/5, but I finished it this month. I enjoyed this, even more, the second time around and has cemented itself firmly in my top books list.
Kerry Hudson
⭐⭐⭐⭐
Goodreads
The second book in my wrap-up that I read for a module. I have so many complicated emotions tied to this book that I feel like I might have to do a full review of it. But if you have to know one thing - this book is proof that good representation is important in literature. I have never been so accutely aware of my own experiences as to when I was reading this book and the modern tradegy of events like this are still being repeated.

I actually can't sum up my emotions about this. Nope. My heart. Nope. I'm trying to write a review for it and struggling. So brace yourselves.
Barry Hines
Goodreads
The third and final book that I had to read for a module that I was taking this semester.
