Have you read any of those Dark Imperium books post-Guilliman's awakening? HH grew lukewarm for me, but those new developments turned my head a bit. I don't care about spoilers, but only know the broad strokes so far.

Bram Stoker's Dracula, because it's embarrassing I didn't yet. So far, even though it's a very uneven burn, I like it more than any of the adaptations.

Danielle Cybulskie's How to Live Like a Monk, which, despite the title, is more about how monastics dealt with their life of deprivation, what they did for mental health, how they mitigated burnout, and more. Even though the author is a medievalist historian, it's a very light and approachable read. It's respectable to monks, but secular in lessons learned if that's your worry.

I've been trying to left-side read a couple Loebs', but my vocab isn't there yet. Damn you, Cicero, and your septuple-level puns!
