My mom and I have always shared a love for old fashioned things and I’ve been enjoying reading Frances Hodgson Burnett’s books lately to calm down. I really like positive books, happy romances, finding joy in sad places etc. Despite the sad parts in The little Princess I felt very hooked and seeing Sarah persevere and be happy felt healing to my inner child. I’d like to find a collection of other books like this if possible!
The only thing is sometimes my mom’s older books had really weird age gaps (looking at you, Jane Eyre) and I’d like to avoid that if possible for personal reasons.
