I really love stories where a major theme is past lives/ reincarnation, only I can’t seem to find any books with this theme. If you know books like that, please suggest me one.
It’s quite old at this point, but The Reincarnation of Peter Proud, it had a campy movie made of it in the 1970s. Audrey Rose was also a campy 70s movie that had reincarnation at its core. It was also based on a novel, but all I know of it is the movie (Anthony Hopkins always played disturbing roles) and the bizarre eerie cover that was in every paperback spinner rack in the 70s.

Do you want it to be a main plot or just part of it? If just part of it, Wheel of Time is a fun fantasy series

The Years of Rice and Salt by Kim Stanley Robinson. This 100% fits the bill!

[Reincarnation Blues by Michael Poore](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/33571217-reincarnation-blues?ac=1&from_search=true&qid=M6q4DZ1ZWK&rank=1) – the world’s most reincarnated man and his girlfriend death. Great humor and some serious meaning and depth. I adore Michael Poore’s writing – both his narrative but especially the dialogue. I describe it as being like you talking with your friends, only funnier.
