Someone give me some book recs that they think I'll enjoy just based on idk what you'd just assume I might like.

For a bit of context: the last book I read fully for pleasure was probably 3-4 years ago - Faust by von Goethe (yes really a play but whatever). It's also taken me over 4 years to read the first half of The Trial twice. So I'm just looking to start fresh.
Catch-22, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and Slaughterhouse five are all fun and classic reads. I also recommend Lovecraft's short stories and The Turning of the Screw if you're into Faust. Since I've started talking about short stories, you (and everyone else) should read The Yellow Wallpaper.

Also if anyone has good recs based off of my recs, I'm all ears (which means I don't know how to read).
