Recs if you like Gregor the Overlander (Underland Chronicles, #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 to get for the middle grade readers in your life that have similar vibes but are NOT Harry Potter (and are in fact better)

books featured in the cozy video game “tiny bookshop”

A list of (thankfully) fictional books featuring giant arthropods - from uplifted arachnids and ancient hive minds to the oversized insects of our nightmares! Always taking recommendations (for my nightmare fuel)! (p.s. for actual education content, please see @The_BookishBug)

emphasis on “in”. sister list to ‘absolutely rat-tastic’! for this list, rats do not have to be mentioned in the title, but they MUST be mentioned in the book, featured on the cover, or both! suggestions are extremely welcome🐀

You know when you're a kid and you have a vivid imagination ? So picture this: You just started a series and go reenact as if you're in the book

Most of these are YA or teen books

Will be updating often

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

books with doors (of any kind) that open to unexpected places

Portal fantasy (middle grade through adult lit with maybe some sci-fi too).

Because sometimes you just want to read about characters literally escaping their world or temporarily exploring other ones since you’re stuck here.

(Please note: series will only contain the earliest applicable volume even if more/all are the same to avoid clutter. Also, open to recs!)

From the game. Because I can't be the only one using it as an excuse to add to my tbr

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.

(almost) every book in the game: tiny bookshop

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

i am definitely not the first person to make this but i am dedicated to make this the most comprehensive

This is a list of (most) every book mentioned in the video game 'Tiny Bookshop'

grab your flashlight and some extra rope, because we’re going underground!

a collection of books at least partly set in caves

i have a very heavy experiential bias towards classics/lit fic, let me know what i’m missing outside those genres!

Just realised that the game actually features real books! So these are some of the books that show up in the game

Che cosa ha scritto Suzanne Collins prima di Hunger Games? La saga middle grade "Gregor" (The Underland Chronicles in inglese) e questi sono tutti i volumi.
