What are the best fictional books you’ve ever read?
I started reading last year, mostly productivity stuff, but now I’m really looking to jump into fiction to unwind after a long week of uni, studying, and work. I need something to help me relax during the weekends without feeling like I’m working.
I’d love some recommendations for books that are short enough to finish in a day but still hit hard and are totally worth it. No specific genre preferences right now. I'm open to whatever. Looking forward to seeing what you guys suggest. Thank you very much in advance.

Fahrenheit 451, really awesome dystopia that predicted a lot of things in our modern era
Yes, everytime 1984 comes up I think of Fahrenheit which is much, much closer to the western world.
Have any of it's predictions come true?
A lot, it predicted the flat screen tv, parasocial relationships with celebrities and so much more. And of course there was the banning of books but I’m not sure if that’s a new thing or not. I highly suggest reading it and seeing all of the things it predicts, it’s not too long of a read.
You've made me excited about this. I'll definitely read it. Thank you very much for sharing it.
