Recs if you like Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind: The Complete Series...

Books that inspired or are similar to Studio Ghibli films

I learned wayyyyy too late in my life that most of the Ghibli movies were derived from books. Some we know about, like Howl's Moving Castle, some we don't, like I didn't know Kiki's Delivery Service was a novel originally! So I've decided to make a list for the Ghibli enjoyers who want to take a look at where these wonderful movies sprout from 😁

Books that ride the line between peaceful solitude and poignant loneliness.

Every book that has been adapted into a movie covered by the Blank Check podcast

A selection of popular manga for those unsure where to start or veterans looking to pick up a series they somehow still haven't read yet.

Who says you have to chose between sci-fi and fantasy? This list contains books that blend these two genres in unique and creative ways. Wizards in space, aliens in medieval settings, magic and technology working in harmony.
