Yes i finished school without ever reading a book (thanks movie adaptations and cheating), but exactly one month ago today was my birthday and i decided to gift myself a couple books, so i asked my uncle who is a college professor to suggest me some books, if i remember correctly what i asked him was something along the lines of "easy to read but will teach me something practical about being a better person" the list he gave me was:
– Tao Te Ching by Lao Tzu
– Bhagavad Gita by Ved Vyasa
– The Twilight of the Idols and the Anti-Christ by Friedrich Nietzsche
I just finished the first one this weekend and i have to say i think I'm pretty hooked on reading, starting the next one ASAP, but decided to come here for more general book recommendations, so really just recommend me anything you think is not overly hard to read, whatever, fiction, non-fiction, fantasy, sci-fi, i'm open to it all.

Starlight by M.L. Briggs, it was a fun but brutal sci-fi/dystopian story. I recommend checking it out
“Emma” by Jane Austen. “Oliver Twist” by Charles Dickens. “Tess of the D’Urbervilles” by Thomas Hardy. “To Kill a Mockingbird” by Harper Lee. “Of Mice and Men” by John Steinbeck. “The Giver” by Lois Lowry. “Valley of the Dolls” by Jacqueline Susann. “Fahrenheit 451” by Ray Bradbury. “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson. “The Color Purple” by Alice Walker.
