Reading with Taylor Swift
Cameron Capello
“Slut!” (Taylor’s Version) (From the Vault)
“Got love struck, went straight to my head. Got lovesick all over my bed.” Easily my favorite song off the album, “Slut!” embodies the difficulties of a woman trying to find a partner. “A Study in Drowning” by Ava ReidEffy Sayre is the only female at the architecture university for architecture, making her a target for vicious and cruel behavior from both her professors and fellow students. Part historical fantasy, part rivals to lovers romance, part Gothic mystery, Effy is tasked with remodeling her favorite author’s debilitated estate in this haunting, dreamlike book.“Clean” (Taylor’s Version)
“You're still all over me like a wine stained dress I can't wear anymore”“Evil Eye” by Etaf Rum A moving and complicated mother daughter drama of a young Palestinian American woman who looks at the lasting effects of intergenerational trauma and what it takes to break the cycle of abuse.“Style” (Taylor’s Version)
“And when we go crashing down, we come back every time. Cause we never go out of style”The urge to recommend “After” is strong. But I’ll refrain for now. But that doesn’t mean I can’t choose another book based on a Harry Styles fanfiction, haha! “The Idea of You” by Robinne Lee. To quote Vogue, “There is no escapism like reading about a nearly middle aged woman embarking on a glittering, global love affair with a thoughtful young sex god. It's electric, triumphant to read."“Wildest Dreams” (Taylor’s Version)
“He's so tall and handsome as hell. He's so bad, but he does it so well.” “One Dark Window” by Rachel GilligFor fans of “Uprooted” and “For the Wolf” comes a dark, gothic fantasy romance about a maiden who must unleash the monster within to save her kingdom, but the monster in her head isn't the only threat lurking.“You are in Love” (Taylor’s Version)
“No proof, one touch, but you felt enough”This song could have been the blueprint for “Talking at Night” by Claire Daverely. Will and Rosie are opposites in every way and yet they fall for each other as teenagers; nineties music, sideways glances, sunsets and bonfires and talking late into the night. Until one day, tragedy strikes, and any possibility of being together seems to shatter. But time and again, Rosie and Will find their way back to each other. Though the years pass, they cannot quite let go of what might have been.type: embedded-entry-inline id: 2QUITYfrkDxHMl1XewwRffKeep reading on Fable
