I like contemporary literary fiction and tend to pick up anything described as unsettling etc. titles I’ve enjoyed recently are bunny by mona awad, nightbitch by rachel yoder and heaven by mieko kawakami. obviously these books are bestsellers for a reason and I don’t intend to stop reading books that are ‘mainstream’, but since I have more free time to read these days I’d like to go a bit deeper down the rabbit hole.
other stuff I like: short stories, translated fiction, graphic novels, poetic prose, dark comedy, anything that’s a bit gothic. maybe there are some modern classics I haven’t read yet that I should’ve, or maybe there’s a book you love that nobody else seems to have heard of. trying to discover a new niche instead of just raving about what everyone else is raving about lol
