I'm sick of my doomer outlook. Suggest books to get rid of my cynicism and instill childlike wonder in me

It’s too late to regress to childhood. Accept that, as Heraclitus said, war is the father of all things, and fight, overcome, triumph, or perish. It’s up to you, faggot.

Lovecraft. The guy flourished in that realm of horror and that's because childlike wonder is always accessible to you even if you don't have money or a meaningful social context. Especially if you're fraught with fear. He basically transformed his fears into something to tickle his inner kid with which is always a rewarding activity
