This is a paid post, but I’ve formatted it so that every single MBTI type can find one book before the paywall hits, since I felt like it would be unfair to just do one.

For paid subscribers, I’ve listed eight books for each MBTI type, and tried my hardest to include a lot of underrated literary fiction / classic gems! I’m really proud of this list and think it would be worth (?? I can’t really be unbiased about this one) the paid subscription—the annual subscription is 50% off right now, by the way!

I’ll do one for astrology soon, so stay tuned for that.
