Am enjoying all the recommendations that are being shared. Making my 2022 reading list now.

I agree, A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving is a fabulous book and if you have read any of John Irving’s books he is a master. I saw him say when he writes he writes the first sentence and last sentence of the book first and sometimes it has taken him up to a year to develop those two sentences. Second on that list for me is The Catcher in the Rye.
