I've finally fallen in love with reading again over the last year. Problem is I've only been reading non-fiction. it makes my brain hurt. I'd like to have some stuff I can turn to when attempting to read gender trouble gives me another headache. I don't have any particular preference for genre. I used to read fantasy, historical fiction, dystopian stuff but I'm more than happy to explore other genres as well!

A short list of things I've read for reference:

The saxon stories, Bernard Cornwell
LOTR, the hobbit
1984
The road, Cormac McCarthy
The plague dogs, Richard Adams

The road absolutely sucked me in, I couldn't put it down! To be honest I didn't know much about him outside of that and no country for old men, if the rest of his work is that good or better I'm all in.

I'll have to look into the others as well, thrillers aren't normally my forte but I'm up for a change. Thanks!
