Family Saga
Books in which family is more than just a backdrop. Sagas that span generations, complex relationships, family secrets, inherited trauma, conflicts, loyalties, and stories that resurface in each new generation. Regardless of genre, era, or setting, what matters here are family bonds and their impact on the lives of the characters. From sweeping multi-generational epics to intimate stories about families that are hard to love, but even harder to escape.
