    Hey everyone,

    Long story short, when i was young I read multiple books that, I remember, got me really motivated to read (like couldnt really put down).
    I remember some books :

    – The last apprentice series by Joseph Delaney : I remember clearly that i spent nights not sleeping before school to read these books

    – "Les Chevaliers d'Emeraude" series by Anne Robillard, same

    – "Autre Monde" series by Maxime Chattam, incredible books that i freaking loved

    – Harry potter books, even tho I dont really remember being gripped to them

    – "holes" by Louis Sachar. The only book i had to read for school that I still remember to this day

    I started reading again only this year, with a kindle, after like 10 years or more of not reading.

    I picked up Dark Matter by Blake Crouch because a lot of people in this subreddit speak about this book.
    I didnt NOT like it, but I have to admit that I didnt feel the need to keep reading this book, even tho I made it to the end. I didnt feel any connexion with Jason at all.
    Then I tried Pines, by the same author, but same thing happened, no feeling at all the the characters.

    What I think I am looking for is a book full of suspense, kinda fast paced, but with good characters and relationships. Something that keeps me scotched to the book and feel for the characters.

    Im more into adventure/thrillers/fantasy, but not too deep fantasy like Sanderson can have because I dont feel that I'm ready yet to jump into these dense worlds.

    Do you guys have any reco that you think can get me reading ? I guess I would like it not to be too "young adult" and go more to the adult side as I'm turning 30 and am not really interested anymore in YA.

    Thanks a lot for your help, I really appreciate that !!
