Every Book Mentioned in Cry Havoc (Rebecca Wait)
I think the author is using books as a character and social commentary. Iβve added one film poster & one play reference because they were originally written stories. I wonder if I have missed any.
(Cry Havoc is a wry, compelling, and funnier than expected, mystery at an all girls boarding school in 1980βs UK. Everyone has a secret and everything is going wrong. Thereβs a strange contagion taking place. A very satisfying read).

Quirky Fantasy
It's not quite epic. It's not quite cozy. It's somewhere in betweenβand usually hilarious!
Fantasy books that are too dark/exciting to be cozy, but too lighthearted to be fully epic.

Essential Francophone Lit: Classics & Contemporary
A collection of acclaimed classic and contemporary Francophone literature. I chose to classify as Francophone rather than French in order to include authors who wrote in French but were/are not of French nationality, especially authors from colonised countries. Non-exhaustive as I'm not an expert I am keeping this list to one book per author but suggestions very welcome! :)
