I’m looking to read a fiction which makes me think about life in general – but also with an interesting storyline and something I wouldn’t wanna keep down(?) by Ok-Yellow9498 Related: Literaturre from Ireland/U.K. Books where unsettling/new/unexpected customs and tribal groups emerge Classics/contemporary fiction from the German speaking region Books with a ocean setting (beach town, elements of surfing/free diving/ whales would be cool! ) A book that will blow my mind
