book recommendations?

[exesandohhs]

I'm looking for book recommendations from you on some books to read. i'm not really looking for anything in particular; i just don't like sci-fi or fantasy because for some reason i just can't get into them. I'll read EVERYTHING else. i like memiors of people that have lost massive amounts of weight, had drug addictions, dealt with eating

The Shadow of the Wind, mesmerizing writing. It's a story within a story kind of thing, taking place against the background of the Spanish Civil War.

Tons, but it will depend on what you like because I got pretty diverse tastes. For a quick read, check out Trigger (can't recall the author's name offhand). Written by a neurosurgeon IIRC, it's about (and from the perspective of) a boy who survives shooting himself in the head. He has brain damage and memory loss, and he tries to piece together why he had tried to kill himself
