Welcome to day fourteen of the A-Z Challenge and today’s letter is N.
The A-Z Challenge involves blogging every day except Sundays and each day corresponds to a letter of the alphabet. The daily posts most relate to that letter and can all have a theme or can be totally random. My theme this year is Recommended Reading, where I will share three to five books for each letter that I have really enjoyed and think more people should read.
I have tried to have a mix of authors and genres but you will notice some real favourites occurring more than once. The posts do contain affiliate links (don’t worry, they don’t affect you in any way but if you want to know more, check the end of the post). Below you will find today’s chosen books:
Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult
Nineteen Minutes is one of those books that is sad and disturbing and yet you can’t put it down. It gives an interesting perspective on bullying, how much one person can take. and what happens when someone is pushed past that limit. To read the blurb or buy the book, click here.
Nineteen Eight Four by George Orwell
This is one of the classics I really enjoy because the writing isn’t stuffy or flowery, it just tells the story. And even years after the story was written, it is still very much relevant today and if anything, I think it feels closer to becoming a reality than it likely did at the time it was first published.

Nerve by Jeanne Ryan
This book is well written and easy to read and I didn’t want to put it down. It explores how far people will go to win, especially when they are being watched. To read the blurb or to buy the book, click here.
Night Chills by Dean Koontz
I have read this book at least six or seven times and it never gets old. It is a terrifying look at how our subliminal perception can be used against us if in the wrong hands (this in no way does the book justice – read it for yourself and you will see).

Loved 1984, but haven’t read the others yet.

I haven’t read a Kootz book in years. Thanks for the reminder
