Hello! I am looking for a new book, I have used the search function extensively and already have a lot of books ready, but I am also trying personal suggestions here 🙂
As English is not my mother tongue, the book should not contain too complex or complicated language. Preferably I am looking for books that are not too long, short stories are welcome but also fast paced Novellas. But no thick pills like I Am Pilgrim e.g.
Genres I like: thriller, horror, may also be absurdism, but I think mainly with humour and also non-fiction (especially when nicely written or interesting topic).
Books I have read and liked in the last 2 years:
– All Raylan Givens volumes by Elmore Leonard (Pronto, Riding The Rap, Raylan, Fire in the Hole). his writing style is fine and it reads fast. I also loved the show so that got me into it.
– The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood, does not fall into my listed genres but I am flexible and like many things, haha.
– A Dirty Job and Secondhand Souls by Christopher Moore. Fine writing, nice humour, really enjoyed it (the first book more).
– Perhaps my favourite book because of the humour and absurd conversations: Apathy and other Small Victories by Paul Neilan. Still think about that one from time to time.
– Other: Metro2033 (Dimitry Glukhovsky), God Hates Us All (Hank Moody, not really tho), I’m a sucker for books from the movie/series/games I’ve watched or played I guess.
– Non finction: maybe you should talk to someone (Lori Gottlieb), Is everyone hanging out without me (Mindy Kaling) and books by Malcom Gladwell. All finely written and I love Mindy Kaling’s humour.
Thanks! 😀
