2. The Incrementalists
Incrementalists #1
Skyler White, Steven Brust
A fiction book (fantasy, science fiction), that's adventurous, challenging, and medium-paced.

3. The Library Book
Susan Orlean
A nonfiction book (history, true crime), that's informative and medium-paced.


And a second attempt:

4. Some by Virtue Fall
The Seven Gods #1
Alexandra Rowland
A fiction book (fantasy), that's adventurous, funny, and fast-paced.

5. Partials
Partials Sequence #1
Dan Wells
A fiction book (science fiction, young adult), that's adventurous, mysterious, and fast-paced.

6. Embracing Defeat: Japan in the Wake of World War II
John W. Dower
A nonfiction book (history), that's informative and slow-paced.

Of these, 2 and 4 are books I might want to read. Maybe 1 -- I read very little non-fiction, but that one seems interesting. 5 seems meh from the description, but I might give it a try. 3 and 6 don't interest me at all.

Thanks for looking at the book in Arabic, Uncle Robin. Looking at it, I find it's listed in desertway's to-read-list (in Arabic), so if you don't recongnize it, desertway, you have probably clicked on it by mistake some time. (https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/...c-7f10bcf82c69)
Its interesting, that many of the subjects (history, science fiction, etc.) that I have a lot of made it, but there was somehow NO romance, which you read a ton of.
