Ethereal, Dark, Moody Sagas Tinged with Hope
Multi- POV narratives across time and space filled with the mundane (and sometimes surreal) horrors of life in worlds supposedly ending- yet somehow overflowing with the hope that we may heal, grow, and be better.

love the list's concept -- currently reading "The Glass Hotel" and this got me interested in her other books! Have read "How High We Go In The Dark" and the list description fits well
If you have any recommendations, let me know! Because its honestly one of my favorite vibes, but it is so hard to find. I mostly just stumble into it. I never find it on purpose
Have you read any Haruki Murakami?
I have not! Do you have any recommendations for where to start? I have seen split discussion about 1Q84 but really don't know much else about him!
1Q84 is great, a little fluffy at times, but it is just a BIG read. From this list, maybe try Norwegian Wood or South of the Border, West of the Sun. I love ESJM's works and when I initially read her, I got Murakami vibes.
