I am going to be 24 soon. I wish to read some books (probably not self help, but can read them too). I am looking for new perspectives, when all feels lost, when you don't know what is there in the future, when you have lot of wounds to heal from. It can be spiritual, stoic or philosophical too.
Any genre is fine by me, just want to lose myself in reading a book and get rejuvenated by the end of it.

Read Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse.
Know my Name by Chanel Miller
echoes of the void series: The Rebuilding, I read it on kindle It doesn’t promise sudden healing. It follows the slow, honest work of becoming someone new.
Read Plato, but don’t forget it’s all about cope
I second Siddhartha by Hesse. Also, check out The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho.
I don’t know your philosophical reading background as what people throw into that category is pretty broad so I’ll recommend a few in a range of difficulties from pop philosophy to”oh shit, I need to do a lot of work to understand what the hell this dude is saying.”
