I’ve done this post a few times and I see new people are still commenting but others aren’t visiting the post to respond to them (and there are just too many for me to handle) so I’m making a new one so that everyone can get recommendations. If you list really obscure books, it may be difficult to match you with another user’s recommendations.
Please list three books you’d like similar recommendations for and other users will comment with recommendations. If you list some, please be sure to comment on other’s posts as well.
I’ll start:
Some of mine are:
Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Gaskell (I’ve read Austen, Heyer, Victoria Holt, and Mary Stewart)
The Travelling Cat Chronicles by Hiro Arikawa
There’s No Such Thing as an Easy Job by Kikuko Tsumura
