    I read more nonfiction than fiction because it's been so difficult finding adult fiction I like.

    A few books I loved:

    **Still Alice** by Lisa Genova

    **Diary of a Void** by Emi Yogi

    **Snow Flower and the Secret Fan** by Lisa See

    **In This House of Brede** by Rumer Godden

    A few I hated:

    **Great Expectations** by Charles Dickens

    **The Children Act** by Ian McEwan

    **The Magicians** by Lev Grossman

    **Jane Eyre** by Charlotte Bronte

    A few other notes:

    – I dislike any sexual content and even most references to it. I don't like romance, either.

    – While a small amount of profanity isn't a deal-breaker, I prefer to avoid it and especially hate when it's constant.

    – I tend to dislike historical fiction.

    – I don't like books that are heavy-handed/preachy about politics, feminism, etc.

    **Any recommendations to fit my very particular tastes?**

    1. The Eyre Affair by Jasper fforde. It ties in beautifully with Jane Eyre. It’s a bit confusing to start with but it soon makes sense. Highly recommended.
