5 books to read and fall in love with

To read it is a healthy habit for the mind. In addition to transporting the reader to a magical, fantasy universe (when it comes to fiction), it provides knowledge and cultural repertoire. So the tip is: never stop reading.

When you go to the bookstore, do you have doubts about which titles to choose? Psychoanalyst Tiago Lupoli says which are the areas that most arouse female interest: “women look for romances, love stories, friendship and family; adventures that address spirituality, self-knowledge and behavior; plus self-help books,” he says. The interest is based on a cultural issue. “Women tend to expose and work with their emotions without as many barriers as men. Because they are very caring for themselves and their family, they symbolize their private fantasies and desires in great romantic stories”, he adds.

Based on this analysis, we made a list of 5 books no woman can miss. Let’s go to them:
