One of the most delightful original funny fantasy duologies Iāve read in forever and THE SEQUEL JUST CAME OUT!!! A nasty old lady river boat captain with a secret quest is navigating a river which is actually the ghost of a dead dragon, encountering countless alien/fantasy races with unique cultures and magic, and investigating a mysterious disease which is poisoning the dragonās ghost and all the environments that have sprung from it. If I donāt find someone to talk to about these books soon I will crack. P.S. I recommend the audiobook, the reader is excellent. Itās on Hoopla if your library has that platform.
I literally canāt recommend this series enough!! Itās a sci-fi/necromancy series with a sapphic subplot, and the world building is actually phenomenal! So complex and detailed in every chapter šā¤ļø the second book is a space opera and is my favorite
i know its a childrenās book BUT HEAR ME OUT!!! itās such a good book and if you know me then you know how much i love fantasy, especially when itās dark fairytale based. Adam Gidwitz is an amazing author and adds a comedy element to these stories in the best way. If youād like something quick, funny, and a little dark and quirky youād love this series
With your interest in whimsy and YA fiction I would highly recommend Shepherd King Duology by Rachel Gillig. I flew through these books they were so engaging and had a really interesting magic system and a plot that doesnāt follow the standard āchosen oneā you see in a lot of fantasy.
Iām sick of feeling powerless so my new coping strategy is to not let a stupid system bully me into quiet despair. Iām learning how to use my stateās General Assemblyās online bill tracker and Iām subscribing to email updates for the agendas and the public hearings of the legislative committees Iām most concerned about. Iām memorizing all my legislatorsā names and emailing and calling regularly. Also: Check to see if your stateās Legislative Library has Libguides that explain in laymanās terms what bills are passing in your state and other educational/legislative resources you have freely available to you!!!
