This is Ask a Book Critic, hosted by Vox's book critic Constance Grady. She recommends reads to suit your very specific mood: either how you’re feeling right now, or how you’d like to be feeling instead.
This week, Constance has books that will help you figure out who you are. Maybe you're trying to find your identity or build a new one. Or maybe you're thinking about the kind of person you want to be in this new year, which is an issue books tackle uniquely well.
Recommendations:
Something That May Shock and Discredit You by Daniel Lavery
Amateur by Thomas Page McBee
Perfect Circle by Sean Stewart
Possession by A.S. Byatt
Daniel Deronda by George Eliot
War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy
