books featured in the cozy video game “tiny bookshop”

it happens to the best of us, you start reading a series that sounds so good and then at some point it just…stops, there’s no final book, no satisfying conclusion, nothing. sometimes this is a deliberate choice an author is making (cough, cough George!) or simply they could not complete the series due to life-altering circumstances.

as always, please drop any suggestions in the comments!!!

A list of all the novels which won the Best Novel category of the Hugo Awards. To be nominated for this award a story must be 40,000 words or more and written in or translated to English and it must be either a science fiction or fantasy story.

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

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 - it’s 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.
