For the past couple of months I have been feeling this void which I don’t know what to do about, so suggest me books that made you happy or even chuckle and that ‘life is beautiful’ sorta thing, preferably fiction. Thanks
I find the writing of Bill Bryson does that for me. It’s non-fiction and often centered around travel and history. I’d recommend *A Walk In The Woods*. It’s about him and a friend attempting to hike the Appalachian Trail. It’s funny and has beautiful insight.

[The Hands of the Emperor](https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/af2bba9c-8f41-4a3e-b87a-8532a44ccb67) by Victoria Goddard! It’s a (very long) beautifully written slice of life book about the personal secretary to the emperor of the world, with a heavy focus on platonic relationships.
Or if you prefer something shorter, how about [The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches](https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/bea60a60-8dc1-416f-98b3-8ecff3039d0d) by Sangu Mandanna?
