(I may not immediately respond since I have to skedaddle soon, but I will check up on this thread later tonight and try to reply with a rec for everyone who comments.)

:D

Edit, can I request to stay away from Victorian era and pre-victorian era writing? I find a lot of them quite difficult to read/follow along.
i.e. charles dickens, oscar wilde and anything an english teacher loves to give a confused 13 year old.

I generally prefer sci fi, fantasy, and adventure novels but open to others. Currently reading a murder mystery :D
