I’ll go with the low-hanging fruit: Mein Kampf. I’ve read it, cover to cover. As a piece of propaganda, it’s good. As an example of good writing? Absolutely not (though I will admit I have only read it in translation). Oh, and the whole fascist, racist, and generally shitty worldview of the author that he infuses into the text. And the fact that the author is literally Hitler. You 5-star that book? You’re a Nazi. Period. And as a Jewish person, I don’t look too kindly on them.

    Ohh well I may have made a mistake as I don’t really care much for romance lol I’ve been reading mainly thriller/suspense novels but prior to this year I hadn’t read a book since high school so I was looking for recommendations to get back into reading. I’ll save the Colleen Hoover books for my plane trip back home for Christmas, give myself a break from the suspense.

      Or if it’s not too late, it should be easy to return to target. They have a lot of hit books, so there should be thriller/suspense options.

      You’ll probably like them fine enough then. They aren’t ever purely romance. They usually have some sort of suspense or thrilling aspect to them.
