Hi everyone, I am looking to improve my German. I understand quite a bit by now but my spoken language is still child-like (I am somewhere B1+). Reading has always been something I enjoy. That being said: any (good) books you could recommend that are written by German-speaking writers and are "easy" to read? Just to say, I am not looking for children books - I need to be engaged with the story to read it. Thanks!

If you would also like to prepare for a Trump presidency while improving your German, I hear there is a rather simplistic book written by a failed Austrian painter.

Nah, I tried reading that book, I didn't finish it. The writing style is just as garbage as the ideology behind it. It is most definitely not a simplistic book!
