Would you prefer recs from all genres or just YA (looks like this is what Apple and Rain is from a quick search)

i don't mind any genre I just want a good fulfilling read. I read quite heavy topics most the time and don't mind even classics

Some books that I’d personally recommend are Three Things About Elsie by Joanna Cannon and the Chaos Walking trilogy by Patrick Ness, I also remember really enjoying Twisted by Steve Cavanagh, it was really different to anything else I’d read and all of his books in general seem to get good reviews.

I've been going through the famous classics since last summer since I couldn't think of any specific genre or authors. Of those, Crime & Punishment has maybe been my favourite.

Amelie Nothomb's Fear and Trembling is very funny and incisive sketch of a European woman working in the Japanese business world, I'd highly recommend it. Also quite a quick read so not a great investment of time/energy if that's something that is a factor.

the chaos walking trilogy is so so good!! i started reading all the other books written by Patrick Ness after reading the trilogy, but that's still my favourite
