An unsettling novel that left me unsure how to feel about a man that is both detached and strangely honest. It raised questions for me about morality, free will, and society’s expectations. It’s definitely not a book that offers easy answers, but one that had me reflecting long after the final page

I've been wanting to read Camus' work for years because I thought I agreed with most of his ideas. I tried reading The Stranger once before, a few months ago, and stopped around 25% through. I picked it up again today and it just clicked. Such a fantastic book. It's a depressing read and yet it's strangely comforting. If you've ever thought that life was meaningless or nothing matters, you should definitely read this book.
