Recommendations for multi-genre eclectic reader

I like very varied genres and styles; rather than ask for recommendations for a specific theme or type of book I am hoping that someone who has read and liked some of my (VERY LONG) list here can recommend other books to me. Looking for new authors (have read other books by many of these authors here). My attempt at categorizing these is… a bit abstract. This is not comprehensive, Just trying to give a sense of what I like.
