Hi I want to get into reading again and I’d like a book I can identify with. Doesn’t have to be but maybe something inspiring ? I feel lost in life and I know a book won’t fix me but I’m craving literature that understands me. I want a book that punches me in face until i fall but then helps me get up. Also no nihilism (unless its really good) thanks

* The Bruising of Qilwa by Naseem Jamnia. Fantasy about a healing mage who has anxiety yet still has to do things no matter how they feel.
* Back to the Garden by Megan Wykes. Historical fiction set in 1970s Toronto about a talk therapy group.
* A Psalm for the Wild Built by Becky Chambers. A short book about someone searching for direction in life by trying something new. There’s a sequel, and to me it feels like this book and the sequel would work best as one normal sized book instead of two short ones.
