Tiny Fables
All fiction books that appear in the Tiny Bookshop catalogue! Would sort them by genre as I read along.
๐ Book to movie adaptations ๐ฅ
Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!
(going to only add the first book in a series)
Earning Sci-Fi Chops
This is for the classics, the old and new, the lesser known books, the short stories and the translated speculative fiction. Sci-fi could be argued to be one of the best and most expansive genres out there - itโs just a matter of finding the right book for you.
If there is a series, I will only be putting the first book unless they are unrelated.
Books in Buffy
Books shown or referenced in the tv show Buffy The Vampire Slayer - not including thematic references only direct references or books shown on screen.
Books that defined & influenced their genres
A collection of books that impacted the future of their own genre. โจ๏ธplease make recommendationsโจ๏ธ (Picking emojis for this was hard)
Paranoid androids
Like it says on the tin. Good books with sentient robots/androids/AIs.
Sci-Fi Fantasy Horror Short Story Collections
These short story anthology collections are sci-fi fantasy focused. Some stories in the collection may take a darker edge and lean grimdark or horror.
Feel free to add recommendations!
Books about robot/AI characters
These are just ones Iโve read and can confirm are good/recommendations from others. Some of these have sequels!
tiny bookshop
(almost) every book in the game: tiny bookshop
