I need some recommendations for a book as a gift. Its for a girl, she's a young adult with pretty normie tier reading interests. Has read mostly classics and YA fiction, she enjoys fantasy particularly, probably something with romance.
My first thought was His Dark Materials by Phillip Pullman because its an excellent read but not overly complex or crazy and I don't believe she's read it. I've read it myself and enjoyed it. The only issue is she's a Christian and I hear many Christians are offended by the series because God is killed in itedgy, I knowand it seems to have anti religion sentiment... Still, she reads some mainstream stuff and doesn't seem super conservative.
I also thought of Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis, also good and more mature.
What do you guys think? Any good ideas? I'd really appreciate it. And no, I'm not trying to woo her, its for another reason entirely. No meme answers please.
Thanks in advance.

Make sure she grows up to be a proper /lit/erate.

Made me laugh and it looks like a book I'd like to buy, but I wonder if she might be offended. She's not a kid. But the stories do seem good...
Not bad anon. Maybe. Thanks for the recommendation.

Just look at the goodreads "best books ever" list, and choose the first classic on it, that you like.
For example wuthering heights.

>The Hunger Games is number one
I appreciate the suggestion, but I'm not sure that's the best place to look. I'll check it out a little further anyways, but I was really hoping to hear what you guys thought.

That's why I said classics.
The rating is a mix of amount of ratings and the actual rating, so what you get is the most normie/pleb-friendly book.
Of these, you take the one that you think she will like best and voila.
