Perfect Pairings

Perfect Pairings: Books and Billie Eilish Songs

Billie Eilish has been a rising artist for the past few years. Her unique voice and various aesthetics have gained her a huge following of fans! In honor of this newly rising queen of alt-music, I thought I’d pair some of my favorite reads with my favorite Billie songs!

**idontwannabeyouanymore and Beauty Queens by Libba Bray**

Just as Billie explores the double standards of gender expectations, Libba Bray’s novel explores the idea of what would happen if said beauty queens ended up having to fight for their survival…

**bellyache and Sadie by Courtney Summers**

Who doesn’t love revenge stories? Sure, V is for vendetta, but what happens when there may be no guilty party?

**my boy and The Cruel Prince by Holly Black**

Relationships don’t go without complications, do they? Well, it isn’t everyday that a human and fair-folk fall in love…

**ocean eyes and The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han**

Not only is this my favorite Billie song, but it’s also the perfect summer-y song! Naturally I had to pair it with a cute, summer contemporary!

**hostage and An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson**

The only thing I love more than this song is forbidden romance! Sign me up!

**bury a friend and Vicious by VE Schwab**

Friends to enemies isn’t a common theme, but sometimes loyalty can be overruled by the opportunity of immortality, power, and pride. If you’re looking for your next super-villains book then look no further!

**wish you were gay and Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli**

One of my absolute favorite love stories! Join Simon on his journey as he struggles to find his secret pen pal!

**all the good girls go to hell and Nevernight by Jay Kristoff**

A kick-ass female assassin seeking vengence for her families’ murder? I don’t know about you, but I’d definitely want this “devil on my side” in a fight!

**i love you and Crier’s War by Nina Varela**

Oh how I love it when enemies turn into lovers… this is the fantasy/sci-fi f/f romance that you’ve been waiting for!

**lovely and The Perks of Being Wallflower by Stephen Chobsky**

Life can be complicated and sometimes we’re all just looking for a way to escape our restraints. If you’re looking for a great coming-of-age story, check this one out!
