When I was a teenager I read endlessly and I truly read everything. Science books, science fiction, fantasy, romance, thrillers, historical novels, poetry, drama… the list could go on forever. But what I loved most, especially late at night, was to switch to something very light. Almost childlike. Those books were my way to keep life in balance.

Today I decided to reread one of those stories that, back in my teenage years, carried a kind of playful humour, the sort that instantly lifts your mood without you even noticing. And of course I ended up picking up several other books just like it. Light, easy, a little silly but somehow still speaking to me now.

Do you have a book that feels like an old friend?
