Just read whatever sounds good. Life changing books only happen when you’re ready. I previously dropped many of the books that ended up really punching me in the gut. Also the supposed classics or greatest books rarely affected me like some random stories which didn’t have such reputations at all.

{{The Reader by Bernhard Schlink}}, I think I read it early 20s or age 19, and in a way, I wish I’ve read it earlier… Not light-hearted but very good.
If you know German, read it in the original language!
