I am new to reading, well, rediscovered my old hobby. I am looking for something mainly classical. Any suggestions really from 1600s to 1800s please. For context, I like gothic romances, and I like where authors challenge the reader to uncomfortable truths.
Additional context: I really enjoyed Pride and Prejudice, and I like books which contain perspectives from unconventional women or even better, when they are the protagonist, like Rebecca. I like quest/coming-of-age books too, like This Side of Paradise (I know it was written after the mentioned period).
To be honest I’m not picky, but I thought I’d share my preferences, just in case someone can suggest a book that is incredibly precise to my likes.
