My friend's birthday is coming tomorrow. I was planning to get Bluets by Maggie Nelson from a bookstore, but I just discovered that it's not available anywhere in my country, importing it would take 2 weeks. So now I'm out of ideas.
She's an INFJ, graduated from college half a year ago, really stressed about future. She has complicated relationship with her family. She's been trying to figure out her sexual orientation. I want to get something that she can connect to
She's a big reader. Her favorite books are Normal People by Sally Rooney, and she's VERY OBSESSED with Jo March from Little Women by Louisa May Alcott.
I only read comics so I can't really come up with anything myself. Appreciate any help!

Maybe Hello Beautiful?
Hello Beautiful is a 2023 novel by Ann Napolitano, a New York Times bestseller and Oprah’s Book Club pick, that serves as a modern homage to Little Women, following a young man from a traumatic past who finds love and family with the four close-knit Padavano sisters in Chicago, exploring themes of love, loyalty, and family bonds as his past threatens to tear them apart. The story centers on William Waters and the Padavano sisters—Julia, Sylvie, Cecelia, and Emeline—and the catastrophic rift that forms after tragedy strikes, testing their relationships for generations.
