Every time I go to read a book, I either read the description on the back of the book, or I read some opinions of the book online, and before I know it, something is spoiled to me. I would love to read just one book without getting anything spoiled. Even if it does take place in the first 25 pages, I don't wanna know it! What is the best book to go into, completely blind, not knowing a thing?

if you like fantasy id say these work really well if you know nothing going in!
Blood Over Bright Haven by ML Wang
The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett
The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson
I’ve been recommending this one a ton lately, but The Grace Year. It’s so weird and surprising and beautiful
oooo two books that I loved diving into with no context were The Extinction of Irena Rey by Jennifer Croft and Biography of X by Catherine Lacey
The Locked Tomb series by Tamsyn Muir – truly wish I could read it again anew!!
Never Let Me Go
Gone Girl
Comfort Me With Apples by Catherynne M. Valente
Three by Ted Dekker (Mystery/Thriller)
Ubik by Philip K. Dick
I know just what you mean. I can’t even read the blurbs on mystery stories because they always reveal who was murdered, and often even that is often a bit of a spoiler.
To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis (it’s the second in a series but it’s the best one to start with IMO.)
The Cat Who Could Read Backwards by Lillian Jackson Braun
The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton
Fight Club
