Amazing - in that case go for Les Mis next. I’m about halfway through now but it’s been one of the best books I’ve ever read. Also recently did Crime and Punishment and War and Peace. Love a 1000+ page book 😂

Someone else just said crime and punishment, gonna add that now for sure. Definitely will go for Les Mis. Thank you! They're absolutely fantastic right? 😊

If you want to read it again, just look under 'Educational' in the prison library.

Anything by Kim Stanley Robinson, or Dan Simmons--both literary sci-fi. Gap Into Space, very weird sci-fi by Stephen R. Donaldson. Samuel R. Delaney, more weird sci-fi.

Ivanhoe, by Sir Walter Scott.

Non-fiction books by Mary Roach.

Gore Vidal, essays, and historical and contemporary literature.

The Name of The Rose
