I raced thru the "Deadly Education" trilogy by Naomi Novik and now other family members are reading it. It's about a school of magic, but nothing like Hogwarts.
"The Overstory," by Richard Powers, is wonderful. I highly recommend it.
On a long holiday car trip we listened to "Sense and Sensibility" as read by Rosimund Pike. Pike does a terrific job of performing different voices and different accents, and she brings out Jane Austen's dry wit beautifully.
I happen to adore the historical novels of Alan Furst, often set in unfamiliar corners of WWII. "Night Soldiers," "Dark Star," "Mission to Paris," you really can't go wrong.
If you like science fiction, check out the "Ancillary Justice" trilogy by Anne Lecky.
And then there's always the Discworld books by Terry Pratchett. Difficult to classify, but always very humorous.
