Looking for immersive reads— love history & mythology

I’m a woman in my 30s, going through a bit of anxiety — nothing major, but life’s a little messy with work and personal stuff.

I want to get back to reading after a long break. I’ve loved books like The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett and works by Sudha Murthy.

I enjoy history, mythology, and stories that offer a good escape from the real world.

Any recommendations in a similar genre?

Thanks in advance! 🙏
