also known as “cozy catastrophes,” these are books that deal with a post-apocalyptic and/or dystopian world but are still hopeful, uplifting, or just leave you with more of a postive feeling!

Oooh, love this idea for a list. What about Everything for Everyone (looks like nonfiction at first glance but it’s actually speculative fiction in an oral interview format)? More hopeful than cozy, but I think it might fit!


this is a genre i really love and ive been searching for recs everywhere! i havent read all of these myself!
