i really want to find some books that are written for everyone. like, either they don’t have an age range or they’re adult but can be read by kids, if that makes sense? just sort of good stories that are well written and not inappropriate, sort of like House In the Cerulean Sea :)

I think they both die in the end by Adam Silvera might be good for you. I do remember there is a part where a gun is pulled out but other than that it doesn't really have anything inappropriate.
Unfortunately, that’s hard to find. Good luck tho!
Harry Potter or The Hunger Games come to mind for me
Harry Potter would be ok and anybody who’s seen my reviews or comments before would know I LOVE the Hunger Games. However it is quite violent(for some people) and I wouldn’t recommend it for younger kids(elementary age).
unfortunately i’ve read HP and am currently working through hunger games, but i appreciate the suggestions :)
some books that come to mind are: -lord of the rings by j.r.r. tolkien
-the hobbit by j.r.r. tolkien
-the lunar chronicles by marissa meyer
-six crimson cranes by elizabeth lim
hope this helps :)
@jae (kaz brekker’s version) thanks! i’ve wanted to read Six Crimson Crane’s so maybe i’ll finally pick it up soon :)and i read the first lunar chronicles book but i need to continue with the series!
Some books I read as a kid that I have since re-read as an adult may work. My main two books would be Chronicles of Narnia and Warrior Cats. Chronicles of Narnia is more YA while Warrior Cats is middle grade but both are extended series with great characters and plot progression.
The Neverending Story by Michael Ende. Half of it was made into the 80s movie we all know and love, but the book is very much written for all ages.
Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, Lord Of The Rings, The Hobbit, and Percy Jackson come to mind!
If you like The Hunger Games, Divergent might be good also
You might also try the Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander. They're written to older youths, but still very readable by adults.
Last but not least: Susan Cooper's Dark is Rising series.
Grandmother Oma is a lovely book as well as The Little Prince. All ages!
Enid Blyton's Adventure series starting with "The Island of Adventure".Enid Blyton's famous Five series starting with "Five on a Treasure Island".
Norman Dale wrote two suspenseful series for kids/young adults.
Definitely a lot better than Nancy Drew, Harry Potter, Anne of Green Gables and Little Women.
aristotle and dante discover the secrets of the universe. its pretty sweet and fun :)
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L' Engle comes to mind.
I’d recommend The Chronicles of Prydain. It’s a fantasy series based on old welsh fairytales. There’s even a seldom talked about Disney animated movie based on the second book.
His Dark Materials-3 book series by Phillip Pullman also The Old Kingdom series by Garth Nix I’m not sure how many books are in the series at least 4. Anything by Garth Nix is fantastic,mostly Y.A. He also has some kids books grade school aged The Keys to the Kingdom-seven of those the titles correspond with the days of the week. Charlie N. Holmberg also has some great books that fit your criteria, I have read quite a few of hers and have enjoyed them all. I hope this helps. Enjoy these books they are wonderful.
The Land of Stories is great for kids and adults. They’re not difficult reads and they’re just so good :). I find myself revisiting them often so I highly recommend them.
Percy Jackson, A Series of Unfortunate Events,His Dark Materials,The Hobbit,Anne of Green Gables, the Narnia books.
