If you were moved by Gavir's journey from subjugation to selfhood in Powers, you'll be captivated by the unnamed midwife's harrowing and deeply personal evolution. Elison's protagonist must navigate a devastated world, forging her own identity and values through adversity, much like Gavir does. Both stories offer intimate, powerful portraits of growth and self-discovery.

If you appreciated the way Powers explores the ethics of power, agency, and destiny, you'll find Kindred equally compelling. Butler's novel plunges you into complex questions about autonomy, history, and morality, following Dana as she is repeatedly transported to antebellum Maryland, forcing her to confront the limits and responsibilities of her own power.

If you were enthralled by the vivid cultures and societies in Powers, you'll love the intricate world of Earthsea. From the islands' customs to the subtle magic and the balance of power, Le Guin crafts a setting that feels alive and authentic, inviting you to lose yourself in its depth.

If you enjoyed the gradual, contemplative pacing of Powers, The Golem and the Jinni will delight you. This novel takes its time, allowing characters and relationships to develop organically against the backdrop of 19th-century New York, rewarding patient readers with emotional richness and subtle revelations.

If Gavir's maturation amidst hardship and social constraints in Powers resonated with you, you'll be moved by Estha and Rahel's childhood in The God of Small Things. Roy's novel beautifully captures the shifting perspectives of youth growing up under the weight of family and tradition, with all the pain and hope that entails.
