Well, you did ask! So I hunted up the list I made a couple of years ago, of books that I think are worth reading. It's mostly fiction but also some non-fiction and historical fiction. Some of these books are oldish- but that doesn't mean that they aren't good! Have a browse and see if anything calls out to you..enjoy!
