Oh I've got some recs for you if you want meaty! I've been reading classics this year. It started with East of Eden; if you've got a philosophical leaning and appreciate your characters deeply fleshed out, you owe it to yourself to read this book.
The next one was Lonesome Dove, this was my first time reading a western and I didn't think I'd enjoy it as much as I did. The book is also absolutely hilarious and has one of my favorite characters in a book(shoutout to Gus).
I'm currently reading The Count of Monte Cresto and, boy, it's turning out to be quite the epic tale of revenge(no spoilers please!).
I've read all three of those in the past three years and I loved them all for wildly different reasons.
If you want a classic novel that's enjoyable to read and has a moral point to make, I'd add War and Peace. The story ends and then the author has a whole afterward dedicated to "In case you missed the point, let me spell it out for you."
