~Here is a mostly comprehensive, alphabetical, list of the books I’ve reviewed here on SGL. While covering different genres, I do not read anything that has blatant sexual content. I will tell you if there is any sort of such (typically very mild and delicately put) in them and if I don’t think they’d be appropriate for young/teenage readers.
It was hard to know what section to put some of these in, what with cross-over happening so often! This will be an ever increasing list so check back often! ~

What a delightful site this is. Googling Sayers’ Wimsey books brought me here. So much of your reading resonates with me. I imagine you get 100s of recommendations, but if you don’t mind, here are a few from me:
Fiction:
Greenwing & Dart Series (starting with Stargazy Pie) by Victoria Goddard – A part of her Nine Worlds, um, worlds. I also enthusiastically recommend “The Hands of the Emperor” and others by Goddard.
The Lincoln Highway by Amor Towles
Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan, as well as other books by Sloan
Non-fiction ideas:
Breaking Bread with the Dead, How to Think, and The Year of Our Lord, 1943 – All by Alan Jacobs
Happy reading!

Thanks for the kind words and the book recommendations! I’ve saved a few on my TBR and actually snagged a hardcover copy of the Towles’ book last month!
