Has anyone read anything by Eudora Welty, Robert Penn Warren or Flannery O'Conner? A friend suggested I read their novels but wondered if someone has read their works.

I like the Wonderland Quartet, especially Them. I also liked We Were the Mulvaneys, Blonde, and the Falls. She has written a LOT, so just try some out.
Little different from the genres you requested but if you’re open to a historical fiction novel, I’m currently reading Homegoing and it is an incredibly moving and captivating read; cannot put it down.

I am reading Hilter's Furies - German women in the Nazi Killing Field. I saw a youtube video discussion on this topic and started reading this book. We always hear about what the men did but nothing about their wives, girl friends, sisters. etc. It's not morbid or gross. Just talks about the female side of the war.
I am currently reading Game of Thrones (finally after watching the series!) and I'm listening to The Water Dancer
I'm currently reading "Aristotle and Dante discovered the secret of the universe" from Benjamin Alire Sáenz

Hey Everyone.
I am currently reading “ The 5 AM Club “ by Robin Sharma.
The narrative keeps me on my toes as I really wanted to know a morning routine that makes my day productive.
Like Robin Sharma’s other books, this one too has few fictional characters knitted so well to the plot and the beautiful secret of the success mantra is delivered through them.
It is not like any other self help books where the pages are printed with boring rules to follow.
One of the must read in my opinion!!!
