I just finished "Closely Watched Trains" by Bohous Hrabal & loved it so much that I started "I Served the King of England" .
His writting is 101% pure genious. In a warped way, similar to LF Celine, my all time fav author but with some naughtiness thrown in for good measure

Anything free on Kindle unlimited. Just finished the DCI Ryan series and now reading some crime type novels set in Lincolnshire. It is odd in that until I had a Kindle I couldhappily take 5 years between novels, now I find them strangely adictive and read for about 15-20 minutes once I am in bed.

Just finished American Rust by Philipp Meyer, excellent read. His other novel The Son is also quite good.
For an excellent SciFi dystopia tey: The Water Knife by Paolo Bacigalupi
For non fiction Jared Diamond's Collapse and Guns Germs and Steel are both excellent.
