I got my swim trunks & my flippy floppies 🩳🩴

I was listening to the lonely island and the next thing you know, this list happened.

this list contains a variety of books that take place on a variety of boats, ships and vessels

as always, taking any and all suggestions

Books that take place mostly if not entirely on public/private transportation

the sea cares not for those who sail it, yet sail they do

No just pirate books! This list includes any tale that takes place (mostly) on a ship at sea.

Magic? Injury? Stasis? Curse? Sleeping Beauty theme? When a character needs a hand back to consciousness.

"No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally (and often far more) worth reading at the age of fifty" - C.S.Lewis

The complete bibliography of C.S. Lewis!

From the light-hearted, to the silly, to the thought-provoking. Genres ranging from contemporary, to historical fiction, to fantasy.

A list just for The Chronicles of Narnia!

Please make this a good, safe, and healthy environment. Do your best to not give away spoilers unless you make sure they will be announced at the beginning of your comment before they are listed! No bullying, harassment, or anything mean! All humans are made in the image of God!✝️🫶🏼

I will update this list frequently! Recommendations welcomed.

i hate being on boats but i do love reading about being on boats 😆

Books that have been made into TV shows or movies. It always amazed me how many there are.

As always feel free to recommend any I missed!

All these books are taken from various courses I've taken as English Literature undergrad! Contains both well known classics and ones you probably have never heard of. (work in progress)

The books mentioned or alluded to in The Astral Library by Kate Quinn. If it’s a series, book 1 is listed unless a specific book was mentioned. Where just the author was mentioned, I’ve made my best guess.

Listed books/authors are NOT endorsements. Some authors/series are problematic, but I have chosen not to censor this list with one exception that, if mentioned in the book, shall not be named in this list.

Books in which the characters 'go into' real, physical objects in their own world to get to another world/universe. It has to be objects that are not usually meant to 'transport' you, like vehicles or doorways.

✅ The Land of Stories: The characters have to 'go into' a book to get to the Land of Stories. ❌ Harry Potter: The characters take a train to another location within their own world. ❌ Coraline: The characters go through a secret door to get to the other world.

Recs always welcome!

Narnia series.

These titles are really going somewhere...

Suggestions welcome! (subtitles not included)

Here's C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia in Publication Order. From what I understand, it is recommended that first-time readers read them in publication order, but on reread you can read them in chronological order.

The Chronological Order is as follows:

The Magician's Nephew The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe The Horse and His Boy Prince Caspian The Voyage of the Dawn Treader The Silver Chair The Last Battle

Before there were kings, there was the glint of gold in the dark. These are the dragons of the deep places, the riddle-speakers who sleep upon the wealth of fallen empires. They do not value the gold for what it buys, but for the heat it holds. To face them is to face your own greed reflected in a slitted, sulfurous eye.

We call them... the Hoard-Keepers.

Have you ever wanted a PhD in English Lit? Do you think fantasy is a legitimate field of literary criticism? Would you like a glimpse into the psyche of someone who does?

These are the books included (or excerpted from) on my comprehensive exams list for a dissertation on fantasy. It is not even a remotely comprehensive list of fantasy texts and criticism (yes, I see the irony).
