Hello Readers,
If you’re a Lewis Capaldi fan, you know his songs are filled
with raw emotion, heartbreak, and longing but what if you could feel that same
intensity in a book? From gothic romance novels to teen witchy thrillers, these
books capture the same bittersweet beauty and emotional depth as Lewis’s most
heartfelt songs.
I’ll be watching Lewis live tonight and what better way to celebrate than by pairing his songs with books. These are just my personal opinions, and I would love to hear what books you would recommend for fans of Lewis Capaldi’s songs

“Someone You Loved” in book form is Belladonna by Adalyn Grace
“Someone You Loved” is raw, aching, and all about the kind of love that leaves you gutted when it’s gone and that feeling runs straight through Adalyn Grace’s Belladonna. Signa’s story is soaked in that same longing, caught between life and death, loss and love. Just like the song, the book takes heartbreak and turns it into something strangely beautiful. Where Lewis pours it into a stripped-down ballad, Grace spins it into gothic halls, ghostly whispers, and a romance with Death himself. Both remind us that even in the shadows of grief, love still finds a way.
“Hold Me While You Wait” is filled with fragile longing, a plea to be chosen before love slips into silence. That same desperate, tender ache threads through Lyndall Clipstone’s Tenderly, I Am Devoured. Lacrimosa moves through a world of mist and shadow, her heart caught between devotion and despair, as love threatens to unravel her completely. Like the song, the novel lingers in that liminal space where passion and sorrow blur, where waiting feels like breaking. With its, haunting atmosphere, and aching romance.
“Forget Me” pulses with the ache of being erased from someone’s memory, of love turning ghost. Dawn Kurtagich’s The Madness takes that same desperation and twists it into gothic psychological horror. Mina Murray is trapped in a tangle of obsession, trauma, and shadows that refuse to loosen their hold, her own mind as treacherous as the monsters she faces. Like the song, the story captures the torment of love and memory that won’t let go, no matter how much you want them to fade. It’s raw, haunting, and impossible to escape.
“Wish You the Best” carries that bittersweet sting of goodbye and learning to move on, even when it feels impossible. Rebecca Westcott’s Wish You Dead spins that same energy into a witchy, teen-thriller package. At Avalon Academy, Morgana Merrick’s life of power, popularity, and magic starts to spiral, forcing her to face endings she never expected. Like the song, the story is about letting go, finding balance, and stepping into something new even if it comes with heartbreak and chaos. With spells, secrets, and sapphic drama, it’s the perfect blend of teen angst and magical mayhem wrapped in a farewell’s glow.
“Before You Go” in book form is House of Hollow by Krystal
Sutherland
“Before You Go” hums with the ache of loss and the lingering “what ifs” and the shadows left behind when someone disappears from your life. Krystal Sutherland’s House of Hollow captures that same haunting, bittersweet energy, weaving it into the story of three sisters who vanish and return forever changed. Their beauty is ethereal, their secrets unsettling, and the mystery clings like mist around the heart. Like the song, the novel drifts between grief, wonder, and the unknown, leaving a quiet ache that lingers long after the last page and a sense that some questions never truly fade.
