To start with, I will point to my list of sci-fi books I listed out last time. Other normie books I have thoroughly enjoyed over the years:

• Hitchiker’s Guide Series - An absolute classic. I read the first book as assigned reading back in school and then went on to plow through all the rest because I enjoyed it so much.
• Catch 22 - This book is one that I didn’t fully appreciate it way back when I read it, but over time it has stuck in my brain and I have come to appreciate its brand of absurdity more and more.
• Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman - This is an autobiographical work by Richard Feynman, a famous physicist of the 20th century. If you saw the movie Oppenheimer, he was the one that played the bongos and watched the Trinity test from behind the car windshield. Both of those stories are in the book!
• Don Quixote - Often called the first modern novel, this stands as one of my favorites. I found it genuinely hilarious. It almost reads like it a long series of Monty Python sketches featuring the same character.
