Can someone recommend some books for someone who has never been into literature. I'm interested in philosophy, spirituality, or just about anything. I have a Christian background but I'm not well read on that either and I'm open to all other forms of religion.

Tourist identified. Coil has like 40 albums. If Ape of Naples is your favorite it's probably the only one you've listened to. Explore your interests more deeply. You're a surface level person.
The stranger, CamusFiction/absurdist philosophy/like 100 pages
>>24760394This is a good rec. The sooner you move on from Christianity and come to terms with the naked existence, the sooner you can self actualize.

Unironically just read The Hobbit if you're literally Brand New to books. The Hobbit is a children's book but if you don't read at all it's not a bad place to start.
