Stuff that's 100-200 pages would be great. I am open to any genre (but less lenient when it comes to contemporary fiction…). To give you a sense of my preferences, I love reading Nabokov, Hesse, Bronte, etc. I'm working on getting into sci-fi, but it's admittedly a bit harder than with any other genre; however, I'd love to continue giving it a shot. Oh, and I recently finished an Agatha Christie novel, so super open to mysteries as well!

The Winds Twelve Quarters by Ursula LeGuin might be a good way to try some SFF. They were my intro to her work and I adored them.
