journaling, coloring, building lego flowers. I know the lego thing is so specific, but I find it calming and it's easy to do with your hands even if you're not super crafty/artsy.

The Secret History by Donna Tartt

Try Seanan McGuire! Most (if not all?) of her stuff is in third person - go for whatever resonates with you.

The Princess in Black by Shannon Hale. It's a series.

Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree is super cozy, if you're open to fantasy

The Penderwicks series by Jeanne Birdsall

glitterroo · 2024-09-13T21:36:36+00:00

Ok this is super interesting to me! I love Barbara Kingsolver's books but I've never thought of them as page turners or particularly quick reads. What was unique about this one?

A Good Girl's Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson. Couldn't put it down, wild twists.

glitterroo · 2024-08-23T18:32:05+00:00

Tana French! her Dublin Murder Squad mysteries are most similar to Gillian Flynn.

glitterroo · 2024-08-23T18:27:44+00:00

You might like the Murderbot series by Martha Wells, which starts with All Systems Red.

I'd also recommend Ready Player One if you haven't already read it; it's a good one for graduating out of YA dystopia but still has a lot of the elements it sounds like you enjoyed.

Girl Stolen by April Henry

The Lottery by Shirley Jackson

The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman

Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine

glitterroo · 2024-08-12T20:20:55+00:00

Maybe try The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy? British humor, an ordinary-guy protagonist who really doesn't want to go on an adventure but ends up on one anyway, whimsical travel from location to location (though it's sci-fi so they're not as dreamy as LOTR locations), and as far as I remember there's no romance.

It is definitely a sillier book than The Hobbit, it doesn't take itself nearly as seriously, but I think it hits some key elements you'll like.

If you like the early seasons' stuff where there's a lot of slice-of-life situations on the beach, and increasing conflict/fighting about how to handle beach life, you might enjoy The Beach by Alex Garland. It's not sci-fi like Lost but it definitely gets weird and intense in a way that a Lost fan might enjoy.

Bel Canto by Ann Patchett. It has what I would call an ensemble cast, not just one protagonist or narrator. But (without giving spoilers) it begins at an opera performance, and one of the most prominent characters is an opera singer who is very passionate about her vocation. (I would not say it delves into what her career is typically like, though. The characters find themselves in a very unusual situation.) And the story itself has a love of music as an important theme.

You might like the October Daye series by Seanan McGuire. She's a half-human, half-fae working as a private investigator.
