As November wraps the world in calm colors and slow mornings, it’s the perfect time to turn down the noise and turn up the quiet inside us. A cup of tea, a soft blanket, and a good book can feel like therapy — reminding us that peace often begins in small, simple moments.

Here are seven books to guide you toward calm, clarity, and a little self-kindness this season:
