Books to Read While Social Distancing

As the COVID-19 outbreak continues to halt our freedom to partake in activities outside of our homes, many are seeking various forms of entertainment while staying put. While most of us are watching television shows, putting down the remote and picking up a good book might be the respite we need over the next few weeks.

Thanks to e-books, audio books and Amazon, books are one of the easiest things to access, unlike toilet paper.

From stories of pandemics and post-apocalyptic societies and triumphant narratives about spending time alone to pure page-turning escapism, here is a list of suggested books and series compiled by Time to read while staying safe at home.
