Fiction Book Recs with Chronically Ill/Disabled Main Characters

Hey there!

I am looking for fiction book recommendations that have chronically ill/disabled main characters. I myself have multiple chronic illnesses and am disabled and would love stories where the main characters overcome their circumstances despite their limitations. My favorite genres are fantasy, sci-fi and anything with a found family trope. Thanks in advance!

Skandar and the Unicorn Thief (Skandar #1)

A.F. Steadman

Soar into a breathtaking world of heroes and unicorns as you’ve never seen them before in this fantastical middle grade debut perfect for fans of the Percy Jackson and Eragon series! Skandar Smith has always yearned to leave the Mainland and escape to the secretive Island, where wild unicorns roam free. He’s spent years studying for his Hatchery exam, the annual test that selects a handful of Mainlander thirteen-year-olds to train to become unicorn riders. But on the day of Skandar’s exam, things go horribly wrong, and his hopes are shattered…until a mysterious figure knocks on his door at midnight, bearing a message: the Island is in peril and Skandar must answer its call. Skandar is thrust into a world of epic sky battles, dangerous clashes with wild unicorns, and rumors of a shadowy villain amassing a unicorn army. And the closer Skandar grows to his newfound friends and community of riders, the harder it becomes to keep his secrets—especially when he discovers their lives may all be in graver danger than he ever imagined.

The Curse of Eelgrass Bog

Mary Averling

Dark secrets and unnatural magic abound when a twelve-year-old girl ventures into a bog full of monsters to break a mysterious curse. Nothing about Kess Pedrock’s life is normal. Not her home (she lives in her family’s Unnatural History Museum), not her interests (hunting for megafauna fossils and skeletons), and not her best friend (a talking demon’s head in a jar named Shrunken Jim). But things get even stranger than usual when Kess meets Lilou Starling, the new girl in town. Lilou comes to Kess for help breaking a mysterious curse—and the only clue she has leads straight into the center of Eelgrass Bog. Everyone knows the bog is full of witches, demons, and possibly worse, but Kess and Lilou are determined not to let that stop them. As they investigate the mystery and uncover long-buried secrets, Kess begins to realize that the curse might hit closer to home than she’d ever expected, and she’ll have to summon all her courage to find a way to break it before it’s too late.

This fifth book in the Swallows and Amazons series is another gentle childhood story, this time following the D's (who were introduced in Winter Holiday) as they travel to the Norfolk Broads for the summer and meet some local children who teach them to sail.

This one is less a story of imagination woven into and around an adventurous reality, and more only of children going on a real adventure together. That both makes it slightly less my steam, and thankfully cuts out the problematic elements I've noted in my reviews of some of the prior books in the series.

It was very calming to listen before bed - particularly given the excellent narration (by Gareth Armstrong). I'm really happy to have come back to this comfort blanket of a childhood love!

Coot Club (Swallows and Amazons, #5)

Arthur Ransome

Someone is wrecking wild birds’ nesting places on the lake and selling eggs to out-of-town collectors. It’s the Coot Club Bird Protection Society to the rescue! Dick and Dorothea Callum came to the Norfolk Broads during the Easter holidays, eager to learn to sail. There, they run into the Coot Club―children who protect the local birds from thoughtless tourists. Trouble begins when a coot’s nest is disturbed by a ship full of “Hullabaloos”―rude holiday boaters. The children try to convince the “Hullabaloos” to moor their noisy boat somewhere else. This fails and frantic chases, calamitous boat collisions, daring rescues (including by a dog, William the pug), and rewards ensue! Friendship and resourcefulness, dangers and excitement: Arthur Ransome’s Swallows and Amazons series has stood the test of time. More than just great stories, each one celebrates independence and initiative with a colorful, large cast of characters. Coot Club (originally published in 1934) was ahead of its time in its concern for protecting wildlife. It is the fifth title in the Swallows and Amazons series, books for children or grownups, anyone captivated by a world of adventure, exploration, and imagination.

What do you look at on other people's profiles?

What do you look at on other people's profiles? I like looking at everybody's My Taste books, but I feel like that's usually not enough to know if we'll have the same taste in other things. I do like stalking other users' library shelves, but not everyone uses them. I feel like I haven't been able to use the percentages in common enough to identify what percentage range is actually similar in taste. What's the highest percentage in common you've come across?
