I assume you're up to date, so I won't suggest older but wonderful novels.
It's hard to get into non-fiction as much but there are some amazing biographies out there:
- Reaching to Heaven by Sivan Rahav Meir and her husband about Rav Yaakov Edelstein, zt"l
- A Tap on the Shoulder, Rav Meir Schuster, zt"l

- Living Legend about Rav Grossman of Migdal Ha'Emek shlita. Supposed to be one awesome story after another.

Here's a phenomenal recent novel - Yedidya by Naomi Elbinger.

I love growing with my children!
If you like nonfiction, the our lives series were amazing.
I love everything by Etka Gitel Schwartz and I like Dreams Delayed and Silent Storms by Ariella Schiller.
Esther Kurtz just put out Rule of Three.
