For other heavy reading:

Ecclesiastes (Qohelet)

As I became a teen my reading became varied thankfully and I came across this book at a time when nothing felt important.

When all feels lost and nothing matters, Ecclesiastes is great for giving a view into what’s it’s like to grapple with the questions of happiness, life and humanity in a way that doesn’t end in your own depression and suicide.

The author finds his reason and method for living. We all must do the same.

I am not a Christian and hence wanted to know whether there were any books of wisdom (not stories/accounts etc.) in Christianity and came across a good book by Robert Alter titled The Wisdom Books: Job, Proverbs, and Ecclesiastes: A Translation with Commentary which you may also find interesting.

The translation by Augusto de Campos? That one is amazing!!!
