A good book can be the ultimate form of escape and holds the power to change your life. Some of your favourite musicians also believe in the transformative abilities of books and have expressed their love for literature and the art of reading over the years. In fact, a few of these stories have even served as inspiration for the tracks you listen to on loop and derive comfort from. Works of Hermann Hesse and Ursula K. Le Guin have formed the basis of some of the record-breaking K-pop band BTS’s discography and Beyoncé has turned to powerful writers and poets for lyrical inspiration. You’d be surprised to find how much literature has influenced pop music around the world. So if you’re looking for a book to read, here are some recommendations from your favourite pop stars.
