Escapism helped me cope with a year plagued by its bitter reality. I escaped the fear of being stuck inside by exercising outdoors. I escaped the fear of negative thoughts by minimizing my news intake. I escaped the fear of the world’s certain uncertainty by diving into the undemanding world of inspirational fiction.

Inspirational fiction allowed me to live in a world where hope and prosperity run rampant. They introduced me to characters with which I could empathize, characters with which I could grow for the entirety of the 200-or-so pages. These stories built up my faith muscles and reminded me that there is still positivity; still good; still happiness circulating around the world.

The books below can do the same for you. They can pluck you out of the four walls you’ve been staring at for the last year and introduce you to a world of potential. By reading them, you will feel an unmatched delight near impossible to gain by simply reading self-help books. Inspirational fiction allows you to feel the help in action, not just be told it.
