I don't know how to explain the type of book better than that I am so sorry. I'm basically looking for a page turner! Some books I have loved:
Life of Pi
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime
Never Let Me Go
Jurassic Park
The Cat and the City
And Then There Were None
All of Discworld
Anything by Becky Chambers
Neil Gaiman books before the related issues
