[_Banal Nightmare_](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Banal-Nightmare-Halle-Butler/dp/1399618210) by Halle Butler  
This ironic, satirical, deadpan novel is all about the Millennial experience. The story follows Moddie, who has moved back to her university town after ten years of living in the city. We follow her return as she meets old friends and gets used to home she once knew.  
While not exactly being uplifting, the different complex characters and the direct, frank writing style make for a hilarious, if not a bit on-the-nose read.

This is the powerful, hopeful story about the resilience of women in war, inspired by the real life of Eve's grandmother.  
This extraordinary story follows the mother and daughters' escape from the Communist army during the civil war in 1948 China. With the rest of the family abandoning the women, the mother having already been punished for not producing a male heir, the women must endure the punishment of the Communist cadres. We then follow their plan to escape and make the thousand-mile journey to confront the family who abandoned them.

[_Brooklyn_](https://www.amazon.co.uk/Brooklyn-Tracy-Brown/dp/1250834953) by Tracy Brown  
Brooklyn Melody James is a manipulative survivor, and shes doomed. The story we read is how she got there &ndash; the origins, the journey, and the frustrating decisions she has made to lead her to the justice that she faces. Brooklyn is a charmer, a hustler, the writer of her own rulebook, but there's only so long one can get away with such a lifestyle.  
_Brooklyn_ will take you on a emotional ride, it will frustrate, keep you thinking, and most importantly, keek you reading.
