Recs if you like The Fifth Elephant...

If we are going to do Qwordy's the Hardest Reading Challenge You'll Ever Do 3.0 - we should probably get some Pagebound badges along the way! I'm specifically going to be adding books from Quests and readalongs that go past the July start date and match at least one of these title prompts: Periodic Table, Familial Terms, Rainbow of Words (also Joseph's coat), Numerical Titles, Titular Counting 5+, Pun in the Title, and First & Last Name in the Title. Recommendations welcome!

Books in this list are in at least two quests. Thus helping to earn more badges. Books will span different genres. Once I scan through all the quests, I plan to further organize the list. I am thinking of creating a seperate list and moving the books with three or more quests to the new list and keeping the two badge books in this list. Are there other ways you would organize a list this big?

my list of books on 2+ quests, continued!

stories featuring caves, crevices, holes, and other dark, possibly cramped places underground (or water) into which our characters must descend

grab your flashlight and some extra rope, because we’re going underground!

a collection of books at least partly set in caves

i have a very heavy experiential bias towards classics/lit fic, let me know what i’m missing outside those genres!

Discworld is a comic fantasy book series written by the English author Sir Terry Pratchett, set on the Discworld, a flat planet balanced on the backs of four elephants which in turn stand on the back of a giant turtle.

Look, I appreciate Cozy Fantasy and other cozy reads... but, to me, there are other books which fulfill the function of giving my brain a break and helping me relax and leave behind the stress of the real world. So this is a list of feel-good, "cozy" reads for all of you who don't find the usual cozy reads relaxing. Enjoy.

And others

After following the amazing antics of OfficialHellsBelles on Instagram, I have made a list of the books and authors mentioned.

Also read Jaysea Lynn’s For Whom the Belle Tolls! 💜

Updated note: several books are missing, but I requested them from the librarians. I also skipped all the Sarah J Maas books.
