White Teeth by Zadie Smith

Recommended by fairuseabby

Books for a 23 year old woman I’d like to encourage to read. What moved you as a young woman and made you want to read more?

Some books are about the plot, but this book is about the narration. I love young Zadie Smith’s wry, frenetic voice and the NW London multigenerational drama. Couldn’t put it down!

Fun books that won’t lower your IQ

“This book is a banger. Characters so unlikable and chaotic that you love them by the end. Full of dry, deadpan British humor that had me laughing throughout - and the story is great as well. Unbelievable that this was her first novel, 10/10.”
