    My 5* were all older books. Perfume by Patrick Suskind, American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis and The Terror by Dan Simmons...
    I have 136 ratings on goodreads with a 2.81 avg...so I guess I really liked those ones

      @@AminorMorning That’s interesting! Thanks for sharing. I’m really curious about Perfume, I’ll add it to my list.

      @@ingerlouise No worries. Perfume, I read in a day though it's definitely not a book for "everyone"
      I was aware of it mainly because it was apparently Kurt Cobain's favourite book; the protagonist is a misanthropic loner so it makes sense. Very strange book... haven't read anything like it before.
      Edit: have reserved The Beautiful Indifference at the library.

      @@ingerlouise first one you could like. It is classic of modern Japanese literature. Second one is work of political analysis/theory which might not be in your ballpark
