Couple of stand alone books:
The Paper Menagerie (and other stories)
The Ocean at the End of the Lane
Stardust
Johnathan Strange and Mr Norel
Couple of series:
Discworld (start with guards guards and follow a reading order guide)
The Culture
Malazan Book of the Fallen (be warned this is big and complex, but my fucking god is it rewarding. Especially on a second read through)
Children of Time
Final Architecture
X for doubt.
There’s no way someone survives something as big as a butt plug moving from their arse to their chest at near the speed of sound. You might as well put their internal organs though a juicer and see if they survive.
