Visions of Greatness
There's 9 volumes all short stories of emunah and hashgacha pratis. Extraordinary stories happening to plain people.

Go My Son and Sisters in the Storm - two great true Holocaust survival stories.

Also liked Mamuka - about growing up in pre-war Hungary and Post war Williamsburgh

It's Meir Uri Gottesman (a favorite author), about someone who gets a yerusha, with strings attached.

OP, before I give you my list, which would be the same, what's the last book you read that you really enjoyed?

My favorite Jewish fiction book is Family Secrets by Sarah Birnhack.

It is the only fiction book I've ever read with a very wide range of characters who all actually talk and act like people you meet in real life.
