What types of movies, tv shows or games do you like? Fantasy, horror, comedy etc.. Once you settle on a genre to start with, hit up online best of book lists for that genre. Goodreads can be a start, or hit up your libraries for additional recommendations. Once you start diving in, find an author you click with and then you can get more recommendations from that.
