I’ve been readying a lot of heavy stuff lately, lot of sci-fi horror, and a lot of, I guess, sad existential kind of stuff. Looking for something deep and thoughtful, but that won’t affect my mood so negatively that my friends notice.

If you’re open to very long books, I recommend [The Hands of the Emperor](https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/af2bba9c-8f41-4a3e-b87a-8532a44ccb67) by Victoria Goddard. It’s a beautifully written slice of life book about the personal secretary to the emperor of the world, with a heavy focus on platonic relationships.
