1. The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett

This was one of my favorites as a child (and it holds up for adults as well). A classic story of transformation and renewal, this novel follows Mary Lennox as she discovers a hidden garden that mirrors her own personal growth. It’s a perfect read for spring, celebrating the beauty of nature and second chances.

This charming novel follows four women who escape their dreary lives for a month-long stay in an Italian villa, where the warmth and beauty of spring help them rediscover happiness and love.

4. Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen

Another one of my personal favorites – this magical, heartwarming novel follows the Waverly sisters as they reconnect and uncover the enchantment hidden in their family garden. With themes of renewal, love and the power of nature, it’s a feel-good read bursting with springtime energy.

5. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

A timeless tale of self-discovery and following one’s dreams, The Alchemist is full of hope, transformation, and rebirth -perfect themes for spring. Santiago’s journey reminds readers that new beginnings and growth are always possible.
