I need to suggest a book for my son's kindle. His gf is arranging for his birthday and I think because they are moving to France in the summer. She's asking lots of people. Husband and I each asked to give her a request plus a message, ( and I don't know how or what she's going to do with messages).
So he is going to be 28. Racking my brains to remember books I know he's read. The fiction I know he's read includes Ian Mc Ewan, Haruki Marukami, also had a spell of reading buddhist kind of things, I think Siddartha is along those lines. I know he has read at least one book by Matt Haig and I was thinking of suggesting the Midnight Library so I'd be particularly keen to know if anyone's husband or sons etc have read it as I know the central character is female. So is it going to be relatable for a man?
I might be able to sneakily find out via his GF which Ian Mc Ewan books he hasn't read but I feel they are all so variable. I think that would be more risky.
Can I please have your ideas?
