Looking for book recommendation

Hey! I'm looking for book recommendation, specially classics or something you think is really outstanding. If you're from anywhere around the world, I'd be glad if you prioritize indicating a local book (To be clear, as example: A japanese indicating a japanese novel), but no need to restrain yourself.

I'm asking cause I'd love to read some of you local classics, if possible and avaliable, as a brazilian myself :)

I'm from the U.S. I really loved The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R Tolkien, , The Great Gatsby, by F.Scott Fitzgerald and The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck. Not only are they classic novels, they are really my top favorite novels in general!

@Coralmist I've watched LOTR and The Great Gatsby movies before. Gatsby's book is actually on my Kindle, I think. I'll check this Steinbeck guy, thank you!

@DarkWaa Yes Steinbeck wrote The Grapes of Wrath, it was really good.

@DarkWaa you'll find "Grapes of Wrath" very relevant to now. The socio-economic problems it deals with still exist unfortunately and explains it in a very human level.

@JonLosAngeles66 humm, interesting. I do enjoy this topic. Good thing I added it to my list
