Any fiction suggestions for a somewhat picky reader? The Expanse lasted me a long while but I'm finishing up the novellas now and need to start looking for something new. Not necessarily in the same genre.
I don't have a lot of books under my belt as an adult, but some of my favorites have been Stoner by John Williams, Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts, East of Eden, Catch 22, Flowers for Algernon, and Harry Potter. Kind of all over the place I guess. ๐
I've also enjoyed John Williams' other novels, Piranesi, The Things They Carried, House of Leaves, and Ender's Game and the sequel.
Some books I didn't really care for include Hitchhiker's Guide (although I loved the first half), Lolita, Sharp Objects, Turtles All the Way Down, The Stand, The Road, 1984, and Fahrenheit 451.
I'm always overwhelmed trying to find something new, so thanks for any suggestions!
EDIT: Thank you all! It'll be a bit daunting exploring all these new books but not nearly as daunting as if I had no guidance, so I really appreciate it!
If i had known J.K. rowling was a terf and i had known what a terf was when i was younger i would have never bought any of her books. And i wish i could get a refund for every book, and in fact, every person who wants a refund should be entitled to one in my opinion. And she is non-deserving of all of the money she has ever made. She made a good play hiding her trash personality. Now shes got money and shes a shitty person. and she doesnt have to hide it anymore.
