Recommend something inspirational

[Anonymous]

It’s been a rough fall and I am not a winter person. I feel myself slipping into a seasonal slump already. Please send your recs for inspirational but not religious books. I generally like lighthearted books.

Pride and Prejudice.

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine.

Gilead by Marilynne Robinson. It isn't really a "religious" book, but faith is a theme.

Loved the book below — resilience of the human spirit.

Lottery by Patricia Wood: This novel focuses on Perry Crandall, a man with an IQ of 76 who wins a multimillion-dollar jackpot. The story explores how his newfound wealth brings out the best and worst in his family and community, testing loyalty and trust.
