    Here’s my recent favorite read in no particular order:

    – “My Husband” by Maud Ventura
    – “Madonna in a Fur Coat” by Sabahattin Ali
    – “My Dark Vanessa” by Kate Elizabeth Russell
    – “Simple Passion” by Annie Ernaux
    – “The Bad Girl” by Mario Vargas Llosa
    – “The Unbearable Lightness of Being” by Milan Kundera
    – “My Year of Rest and Relaxation” by Ottessa Moshfegh
    – “Zoo Station” by Christiane F.

    Sooo, what would you recommend based on this? And in case it’s not obvious: I’m not a fan of fantasy or sci-fi. Thanks a lot!
