Looking for book suggestions

Reading has never really been my thing but I really want to do it more and would like some help finding good books! Not exactly sure what kind I want to read but I feel like I would really like to get something out of the book so preferably something covering a true story or something educational and maybe philosophical? Just something that will make me think a lot, I’m really interested in volunteering so something like heartwarming could be good but I also love like horror so maybe also some like darker true stories? I’m not really sure lol let me know what your suggestions are!
