Hello,

I’ve been trying to keep my anxiety and negativity in check and have been looking for short novels that lean toward positive feelings. Something like “Star Trek The Next Generation”: inspiring, encouraging; even though there are difficulties we learn, adapt and make mistakes. But at the end we’ll make it and we’ll get out of it better than we got into it. 😅

Possibly sci-fi or scientific, or adventure (eg the Hornblower saga)

(Sorry couldn’t find a better way to describe it 😅)

Thank you for any suggestion!

    Great minds, as they say! 😁 Once you read one of those, send me a message and let me know how you like it!

      Will certainly do! I’ve already signed up at my local library: I’m on the waiting list for the first installment of the saga.

          As you and others have suggested I’ve signed up for The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet: https://share.libbyapp.com/title/2245998

          Seems a rather popular title: my library has a waitlist of 22 weeks. 😅

          I’ve also signed up for Legends and Lattes! That sounds so silly and fun!
