I used to enjoy reading a lot as a child but I haven’t picked up a book since around 2017 and might start getting into reading again. The last book I read was Dracula by Bram Stoker.
I love horror/thrillers or anything that covers anything of a dark nature (not talking about things like rape, anything to do with children etc..). I remember reading a book about struggling addicts and I really enjoyed it but I can’t remember what it was called. I absolutely hate romance or anything cheesy. Would prefer if I can easily buy it off Amazon.

Songs of Dead Dreamers and Grimscribe by Thomas Ligotti
1984 by George Orwell is my favourite book.
I’ve read Wrong Place Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister and just finishing The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell.
Both ‘thrillers’ and great books
For a modern thriller, gritty take on vampires, maybe try Rovers by Richard Lange.
Dark Matter by Blake Crouch is a thriller with sci-fi elements that has really good pacing.
And then there were none by Agatha Christy. The best book (imo) by one of the best murder mystery writers.
I’m Re-reading Recursion by Blake Crouch now, hard to put down – [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42046112-recursion](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/42046112-recursion)

Lessons in chemistry was really good

Have you thought about getting something from a library instead of buying?
Weirdly, “Sleepy Hollow” was a good one and an easy read. I was young when I read it, HS, but I remember really liking it and it kept me up at night.
I narrate stories for people trying to get into reading (or get back into reading). I think you might like [The Country of the Blind](https://youtu.be/R6Hq15xcvMI?si=cmh_vBjfskUg3FL5), though if you’re interested to check out a vampire story written 25 years before Dracula, you can also check out [Carmilla](https://youtu.be/KBRdU8MW2fE?si=e65B1BA4-XJJyGbU)
Salems lot and Terror are both phenomenal horror
Piranesi by susanna Clarke
Super short and honestly just a wild ride
