Any good fiction/story driven books with life lessons for men in their 30's?

Basically, title.

Looking forward to see everyone's recommendations

  • Some more information could help.

    Self reflection on personal failings?

    Insights into other perspectives?

    Learning self acceptance or to appreciate how one fits into the world?

    Something else I may have missed?

    • Those three options could be great!

      • Some more information could help.

        Self reflection on personal failings

        • Stormlight Archive series starting with the way of kings

        Many interesting perspectives but I think Dalinar’s character in the series would resonate with what you’re asking about.

        Not that there aren’t many such views such as Kaladin and others with some insights into struggling with depression, feelings of inadequacy, weight of the world on you and fears of letting people down.

        Insights into other perspectives

        • The Murderbot Diaries (already mentioned here and I can’t recommend it enough)

        • Klara and the Sun

        written wholly from the perspective of a self aware machine and what it means to be a girls best friend, what it means to have purpose and how things change

        Learning self acceptance or to appreciate how one fits into the world

        • The Rosie Project.

        An interesting story written from the perspective of somebody who is neurodivergent but doesn’t realize they are.
