100 Five Star Books + What to Read Next

Each pair of books is (1)a book I gave 5 stars and (2)a book to read next as suggested by Goodreads. For some of these books I had to go through a bunch of recommendations before finding one I hadn't read yet, but now I have 100 new books for my TBR!
My reading tastes are all over the map so hopefully there's something here for everyone.
How many of these have you read? Do you agree with the recommendations? Some of them are surprising!
