My friend will soon be going to Zaragoza for Erasmus. She's stressed out about staying there and so I thought I would surprise her with a book that would make her time there just a little nicer.
I'm not looking for a specific genre, but feel-good books would be preferable. I would also be happy for any trivia about the city and cozy places to visit there.

I’m pretty sure Zaragoza appears in [The Song of Roland](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/103390.The_Song_of_Roland). But that may not be what you’re looking for.

I’m from Zaragoza, I found this post while looking for football results lol
‘Zaragoza’ is one of the classical historical novels that form the National Episodes by Benito Perez Galdós, narrating is siege by the French.
Although it doesn’t take place in Zaragoza, Orwell’s ‘Homage to Catalonia’ takes place in the Aragonese front in the Spanish civil war and has a few things to say about our character and weather.
Don Quixote sadly refused to enter the city and continued towards the east.
There are a few suggestions in [this page](https://www.cartv.es/aragoncultura/nuestra-cultura/novelas-ambientadas-en-zaragoza)
