It's that time of the year again. I want to re-start reading regularly in the new year and need recommendations that would keep me engaged and call me back every night for more.
I have read all Matthew Reilly and Dan Brown, so certainly anything fast paced with interesting theories is great. Have enjoyed slow but great stories like Khalid Hosseini's books as well. I'm open to non fiction as well but need to become more disciplined for it.
Not looking for any particular type of story or structure.
