I recently enjoyed the very popular Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid. People who have preconceived notions about each other are bound to say the wrong thing.

Only the Children by S.A. Dunphy
Didn't work as well as the first book for me, though the ratings suggest otherwise.

The Sixteen Trees of the Somme by Norwegian author Lars Mytting is a historical mystery that shifts between the 1990s, the 1970s and WWI and II. It begins in Norway and moves to the Shetland Islands and France. It is an intriguing story of love, mystery and betrayal that centres on a mysterious grove of walnut trees on a tragic battlefield. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review

I'd have been saying a lot more than Hail, Mary, if I'd been on board that spaceship in Andrew Weir's amazing sci-fi adventure, Project Hail Mary! A wild, fascinating ride into the unknown, full of warmth and affection in spite of the terror.
