    Anything written since like 1970? Preferably written in the last 10-20 years?

    Looking for the best writing and composition and prose that really wowed you. I feel like the brain rot has made it to literature and I am looking to read some books that are actually GOOD, well composed, thoughtful, deep, etc. I believe there is a time and place for low thought books (that are just simple, good fun) and I don't think they are definitionally worse or lack value, just not the vibe I am seeking right now.

    Doesn't have to be super popular/classics.

    2. Anything by Amor Towles. My personal favorite is Rules of Civility, but I love all his work.

    3. “Thirteen Moons” by Charles Frazier and other novels by him. There is no such thing as “best” but you can enjoy the road to trying to discover your favorite
