can anyone suggest classics that are quick read by Stunning_Onion_9205 Related: recommend me some action thriller fiction reads (idk what this trope is called) Short fiction with inanimate object narrators? Books about the dark side of Catholicism and a fantasy book about angels. Looking for a read similar to The Force by Don Winslow what’s your fav book about spirituality/ the meaning of life?
