What are your go-to recommendations that always seem to be universally enjoyed, regardless of the age, gender, or background of the person you're making the recommendation to?
While some of my recommendations to friends rely on them being receptive to the specific genre, these are some books that I frequently and readily suggest to others. All of these books have been met with great enthusiasm:
-The Physician, Noah Gordon
-The Pillars of the Earth, Ken Follett
-Project Hail Mary, Andy Weir
-11/22/63, Stephen King
-All Creatures Great and Small, James Herriot
-The Association, Bentley Little
-The Book Thief, Markus Zusak
-Shantaram, Gregory David Roberts
I'm curious to hear what yours are!
