I like love, I like humor, I like interesting humans being intelligent and generally kind to each other. I am happy if it’s realism, science-fiction, fantasy, magical realism, other genres I might not know the name of.
My favorite books are:
Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins
House on the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune
The Name of the Wind & a wise man’s fear (they straddle the line of being too grim for me, but they’re so good, they can get away with grimness) by Patrick Rothfuss
On a Night like this by Lindsey Kelk
Illusions and A Bridge Across Forever by Richard Bach
The Last Letter from Your Lover by Jojo Moyes
The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers
Most everything by Matt Haig
I default to rom coms and chick lit because I can usually count on a lack of violence, but the average book I read is tolerable rather than good. I need some recommendations for actually goooood books.
Thank you for your help!

Beast of Extraordinary Circumstances by Ruth Emmie Lang. I was pleasantly surprised by this book and ended up loving it way more than I thought I would
If you’re open to very long books, I highly recommend [The Hands of the Emperor](https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/af2bba9c-8f41-4a3e-b87a-8532a44ccb67) by Victoria Goddard! It’s a beautifully written slice of life book about the personal secretary to the emperor of the world, with a heavy focus on platonic relationships.
