1984 George Orwell
Published in 1949, 1984 by George Orwell remains one of the most influential dystopian novels ever written. Set in a totalitarian superstate called Oceania, the novel explores how absolute political power can reshape truth, identity, and even human thought. More than a political warning, 1984 is a psychological study of control—how systems dominate not just behavior but reality itself.

So I read How to Lose A Goblin in Ten Days
Jessie Sylva's "How to Lose a Goblin in Ten Days" is a delightful gem that captures the whimsical spirit of The Princess Bride while carving out its own charming space in the cozy fantasy genre. This is a book that understands the magic isn't always in grand quests or epic battles—sometimes it's in the quiet moments of two unlikely people learning to share a space and, eventually, their lives.
