Kailyn’s top picks and why she loves them
Bestselling mystery thriller “Wild Dark Shore” by Charlotte McConaghy is the first on Kailyn Lowry’s list of favorite books. Lowry shared how much she fell in love with every character, adding, “… the setting? Unlike anything I’ve ever come across in a story.” And, she’s right. The story takes place on a remote island and follows a woman trying to uncover dark secrets while simultaneously grappling with the forces of Mother Nature.
“The Nightingale” by Kristin Hannah is another book that hasn’t left Lowry’s mind since reading it. Speaking to Page Six, she said, “It’s one of those stories that shifts your whole perspective.” Set in Nazi-occupied France, “The Nightingale” is about two sisters who must fight to survive the horrors of war in their own courageous ways.
Lowry described “Strange Sally Diamond” by Liz Nugent as “Hands-down the most unique book I’ve ever read.” She divulged that the protagonist is probably her favorite character she’s read about to date. In this story, a woman on a haunting journey confronts her memories and deepest, darkest secrets. The only issue? She can’t tell what actually happened and what might be made up.
Alongside these titles were also “The Wedding People” by Alison Espach, “By Any Other Name” by Jodi Picoult, and “The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” by Taylor Jenkins Reid. It seems for the “Teen Mom 2” star, reading books full of twists and turns is more than just a hobby. It’s her way to stay inspired and emotionally connected.
