What are some short, easy to read books that are not just some generic pleb schlop
I managed to finally get rid of my smartphone and want to get back into reading again. However, I have tried some of the high brow stuff posted here and got filtered/burned out pretty fast (mind you my attention span is currently comparable to TikTok zoomes)

If you're coming from anime, I recommend going from shounen -> Seinen -> historical manga -> camus, kafka -> don quixote(after this, you'll be comfortable with all sorts of writing formats and prose)
