Some books/series' that should last you some time:

Fantasy

  1. Stormlight Archive series by Brandon Sanderson (4 books out so far, all with more than 1k pages)
  2. Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon (Standalone brick of a fantasy novel)
  3. The Green Bone Sage by Fonda Lee (Completed series with 3 books that center a mafia family + really tight martial-arts inspired magic system)
  4. Babel by R.F. Kuang (Standalone fantasy)
  5. Locked Tomb Series (3 books out so far, fun and mysterious tone to each of the books so you could spend lots of hours piecing together information? - Necromancy and SPACE involved!)

Contemporary

  1. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
  2. The Book Thief by Mark Zusak
  3. East of Eden by John Steinbeck
  4. Stoner by John Williams

Apologies for the lack of formatting OP and descriptions for the latter half of the recs, I realized that you might be going to prison real soon so I will drop the list here and see if you have any interest in the titles! Best of luck my friend in there, take care of yourself and you'll come back stronger and better than ever! Have a good time with all the books too, the recommendations here seem great :)
