I’m drawn to stories about isolation, cosmic indifference, and what happens to the human mind when it is forced to confront forever. Books that make you sit with uncomfortable questions about meaning, faith, existence, and the scale of everything. I love that blend of speculative fiction and philosophy, where the setting is simple but the ideas are enormous. Basically, I want something that leaves me staring at the wall afterward, questioning reality a little.

I love A Short Stay in Hell and would suggest Borges.
I Who Have Never Known Men
The Expansion Project by Ben Pester might fit
Coup de Grace by Sofia Arian definitely fits
This Is How You Lose the Time War has some similar elements
Piranesi by Susannah Clarke
