Recs if you like The Forests of Silence (Deltora Quest, #1)...

JK Rowling is a bigot who uses her platform to hurt transfolks and other marginalized groups (plus she literally just quoted Mein Kampf on the bird site). If you're still supporting her in 2025, don't bother talking to me.

books that just feel like a warm hug after a long day, but don't have romance subplots :) funny, cute, engaging - they have it all. but no kissing (forehead kisses are always welcomed, of course)

All fiction books that appear in the Tiny Bookshop catalogue! Would sort them by genre as I read along.

A fun collection of D&D like adventure books or after adventure stories

These middle grade series may not have seven movies, a TV show, and a literal theme park dedicated to them, but they sure deserve it! Especially because they weren't written by JKR. All recommended by Pagebound users, and suggestions are always always welcome -- middle grade fantasy/mystery series-starters only, please! Let's foster a love of reading in kids without supporting bigotry and hatred.

Preparing for the Switch from Picture books to Chapter books

Children's fantasy series that I used to love and would recommend! Series in order to read. :)

A nostalgic collection of YA and middle grade books. Please feel free to suggest titles as well!
