With work being more stressful these days, I find myself reaching out for books that bring me comfort. As much as I like mystery, thriller or action-packed stories, I really enjoy reading feel-good books. #bookrecommendation
If you are looking for some feel-good reads, here are my recent favourites:
๐ ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ง๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐ง๐ง๐ฒ ๐๐ข๐ซ๐ซ๐๐ง
โ๏ธ ๐๐ฒ๐ง๐จ๐ฉ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ: Itโs a story about the joy of pursuing dreams at any age. Maggie is a retiree who, after travelling the world and returning home, decided that sheโs ready to chase her young adult dream of being a chef. While the job market isnโt what she remembers it to be, an opportunity comes to her in the form of her favourite local restaurant in dire need of help. ๐ฅ
๐ญ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐ฌ: This is such a beautiful, heartwarming and comforting book. ๐ค It makes me feel so hopeful about growing old and somehow less scared of life? I know itโs fiction, but it nudges me to look at what I really want in life and not be scared of going for it no matter how old I am. ๐ฅน
๐ ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐๐๐ง ๐๐๐ ๐๐ฒ ๐.๐. ๐๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ง๐
โ๏ธ ๐๐ฒ๐ง๐จ๐ฉ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ: Linus is a caseworker from the Department in Charge of Magical Youths, and heโs tasked to investigate orphanages that house magical children and write reports to encourage continuation/discontinuation of these homes. He lives life following rules and routines - work and home alone to his cat, but his world changes when heโs assigned to Marsyas Island Orphanages.
๐ญ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐ฌ: This book is so magical. ๐ฅนโจWhile the book discusses difficult issues like prejudice, stereotypes and discrimination, it contains so much love, kindness and acceptance. It teaches us to love despite our preconceived idea. I enjoy the little bits of wisdom written throughout the book and for me, it feels like a soft, warm blanket on a cold rainy night. ๐

โ๏ธ ๐๐ฒ๐ง๐จ๐ฉ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ: A story about second-chances, unlikely friendships and the power of stories. Harriet runs a bookclub in prison, Violet serves 22-months in prison after a car accident, and Frank is a handyman at a bookstore in Portland, where the three of them met and they realised how intertwined their lives are.
๐ญ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐ฌ: Life is hard, life is unfair, but life can also be really, really good. This book makes me want to join a book club or run one for that matter. It reminds me that humans are flawed, but we are doing the best we can even with all our regrets, sadness, and choices we made. Itโs so hopeful, so beautiful and I honestly donโt want it to end. ๐ฅน

โ๏ธ ๐๐ฒ๐ง๐จ๐ฉ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ: Hazel and her sister, Flora, were children involved in Operation Pied Piper during World War II and during those difficult times, Hazel created a fairytale land called Whisperwood to comfort her sister. Life was alright until Flora disappeared and Whisperwood forgotten. 20 years later, Hazel saw a book about Whisperwood and began her journey in finding the truth of her sisterโs disappearance.
๐ญ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก๐ญ๐ฌ: This is probably one of the very few books on World War II that brings me comfort. The author is very talented and the story feels magical despite the horror of war. Like the main characters, I fall in love with Whisperwood and I wish to escape into that enchanted land (esp. with the crazy world we live i now). It soothes me to think about a place where anything I want can happen and I can be whatever I want. I also love the ending ๐ฅน
