Just a reminder: if a book is too depressing, traumatizing, or even just mood-spoiling for you--you literally don't have to read it. It's a novel. It's supposed to be entertaining, inspiring, or moving in a positive way. If it isn't doing that for you, it doesn't matter how "important" people say it is. You can put it down. You're not a bad person for doing that.

Read what brings you joy.
