ZERO DAYS by Ruth Ware
It did not take long for the casual writing style and vivid descriptions to pull me in and bring this story to life. Further enriching the narrative is the emotive language used to convey the complex emotions of the main character, Jack, but this eventually becomes repetitive and tedious.

STAR BRINGER by Tracy Wolff and Nina Croft
As someone who doesn’t read much sci-fi, I was glad that the writing style was simple and easy to understand. Enough details are provided to bring the story to life, and multiple points of view (POVs) give the full scope of what key characters encounter and their emotions. Only the worldbuilding made this aspect of the story underwhelming, as it is presented in information dumps at the start and then poorly developed over the course of the story.

FABLE by Adrienne Young
This story is brought to life with a picturesque writing style and beautiful prose. A unique, gritty world with fascinating character types is also nicely established, though the scope is relatively small.

THE LIGHT WE CARRY by Michelle Obama
The conversational writing style incorporates creative metaphors and captivating stories to maximize the impact of the content. Repetition is also used to drive home key concepts, and a positive, uplifting atmosphere keeps the book engaging throughout.

IT ENDS WITH US by Colleen Hoover
The simple, emotive writing flows beautifully with vivid details that enrich the raw storyline. Besides this, transitions between past and present events are smoothly executed without affecting the controlled pace of the story.
