It Ends with Us by Colleen Hoover

 Lily hasn’t always had it easy, But that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up, went to college and moved to Boston, to start her own business. And when she gets the hot's for a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true.

Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. Lily can’t get him out of her head.

African Stories by Doris Lessing

  This book of short stories set in Africa where Lessing grew up does a beautiful job of conveying life in the bush, often from a child's point of view. She offers a look at white settlers and farmers and their interactions with Black natives during the 1930s that often strains boundaries based on today's sensibilities and traces her dawning realization of natives' place in the landscape. From draining a well contaminated by dead animals and a suicide to learning how to deal with a Black chieftan, it's a visceral taste of sun-filled days on the veldt. You can see the dry grasses and smell the river.
