Please help recommend some fun/whimsical fantasy or romantasy books. Ive been reading some more serious/heavy/horror books and doing a lot of work for my class and need a fun little story to unwind.

A lot of people who read loves reading for many reasons, one of them is the many things that you're able to learn from reading. So, I thought I would put together this list of free websites that offers free reading and learning from many different subjects and topics.
PredictionX by Harvard University https://www.predictionx.org/ "The Prediction Project creates, collects, and curates materials documenting and analyzing how humans have predicted their futures over time." They have things on Astrology, the oracle of Delphi, to how the scientist John Snow's research laid the groundwork for modern predictive epidemiology and so much more to read and look at on there.
Luminarium: Anthology of English Literature https://www.luminarium.org/ An extensive online anthology of English literature, covering works from the Middle Ages through the 18th century, from medieval English song and poem lyrics to Renaissance dramas, very extensive and fun to explore.
Irish Literature, Mythology, folklore and Drama https://www.luminarium.org/mythology/ireland/ Has Irish literature, mythology along with Irish history and resources for Gaelic. Once again very extensive and fun to explore.
Theoi Greek Mythology https://www.theoi.com/ "exploring Greek mythology and the gods in classical literature and art. The aim of the project is to provide a comprehensive, free reference guide to the gods (theoi), spirits (daimones), fabulous creatures (theres) and heroes of ancient Greek mythology and religion."
Perseus Digital Library https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/ "Perseus has a particular focus upon the Greco-Roman world and classical Greek and Latin, but the larger mission provides the distant, but fixed star by which we have charted our path for over two decades. Early modern English, the American Civil War, the History and Topography of London, the History of Mechanics, automatic identification and glossing of technical language in scientific documents, customized reading support for Arabic language, and other projects that we have undertaken allow us to maintain a broader focus and to demonstrate the commonalities between Classics and other disciplines in the humanities and beyond."
MIT OpenCourseWare https://ocw.mit.edu/ Free lecture notes, exams, and videos from MIT. A free and open publication of material from thousands of MIT courses across the entire MIT curriculum.
Project Gutenberg https://www.gutenberg.org/ Project Gutenberg is a library of over 75,000 free eBooks. With a focus on older works for which U.S. copyright has expired, you can find books like the Great Gatsby or the strange case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, among many others.
The Center for Hellenic Studies from Harvard https://chs.harvard.edu/ They have many different resources like the Homeric Hymns; you can read for free. They also have primary sources things like "Selections from Sappho" or they have sections of the Homeric Iliad you're able to read.

As a mood reader, I often look around my (very, very wonderfully full!) shelves and find I am not quite in the mood to read a single book on them. I love gathering more recommendations to add to the ever growing pile (and to cater for niche moods and vibes!), so I love to ask people what’s on their shelf to read next.
What is the next book on your TBR/reading plan?

All I picture is Danny Devito as Mordecai in a rat suit. For the love of God, if this becomes a movie, make it happen. That — and make Jim Henson in charge of the creatures.

This whole book felt like the Sanderlanche for the entire first arc of The Stormlight Archive.

I think White Sand should be added to this quest.
I don't think it matters if it's added as 3 seperate books or as the omnibus, but it's an integral part of the Cosmere I think more people should read, even though it's a graphic novel.
