Patrícia R.  (tricia0613) | 5 comments From a quick look at the books on your profile, you seem to like fantasy, romance and dark academia? My recommendations: Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier, Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen, The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde and Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. For fantasy, maybe The Lord of The Rings by Tolkien or The Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula Le Guinn.

Patrícia R.  (tricia0613) | 5 comments Both Rebecca and Jane Eyre fit the mystery/thriller boxes. But if you want the typical murder mystery, you can't go wrong with the OG that is Agatha Christie (my favourites are Crooked House, Murder on the Orient Express, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd and Death On The Nile). There's also the classic Sherlock Holmes (I recommend A Study In Scarlet). Maybe also Edgar Allen Poe? But his works are a bit more on the horrer side of things. I'm not sure if there's a lot of other crime/mystery/thriller novels that are considered classics but maybe someone else has more suggestions
