Welcome to Litsy!

Listen up #LMPBC #GroupQ ! I‘ve currently got 12 books I‘m trying to narrow down before I present a selection for y‘all to look at. In the meantime, I want to rec a book.

When I saw quirky fantasy, this was the first book I thought of. I decided against it, mostly because it‘s not actually a story. But it is hilarious and worth a look. Styled as a tour guide book for a High Fantasy world, everything is lovingly made fun of. And it is a delight.

DNF.

It just wasn't my type of a book. I would have enjoyed this 10+ years ago.

1. 🎧 The Lady‘s Guide to Petticoats and Piracy, 📕 My Lady‘s Choosing, 📗 Sense and Sensibility
2. Tagged is my favorite pick me up book! Think travel guide, but for an amalgamation of all fantasy worlds! 😆
3. “Are you going to make the sensible choice and return to Cairo like I ask? Or are you going to go see that Delphine gets her just deserts with me?”

If you‘re into classic high fantasy you should read this book. It‘s parody, but you can tell it comes from a place of love - mostly because it‘s got that level of “it‘s funny ‘cos it‘s true!” that can only be achieved by someone who knows the tropes extremely well.

I have so many unread first in a series books laying around and even more on my tbr 😳. I'm still longing for a new fantasy series to get into after Oathbringer a few weeks ago so please recommend your favorite fantasy series and trilogies! Any fantasy subgenre is fine, I just want something to keep me immersed this winter!

Day 30 Satire:
Love this guide book for your journeys through Fantasy Land. Complete with explanations on stew, bards, treacherous companions, and how to distinguish magic users, this is the perfect companion for any fantastical quest. And it's Dark Lord Approved!

Unfortunately this anthology isn't in the Litsy database. It is mostly comprised of selections from Children's/YA fantasy stories. I hope to have a good time reading it.

Having read a fair number of fantasy books of questionable writing when I was younger I found this tongue in cheek guide to be a highly amusing read and dead on when poking fun at various tropes.

Considering the state of the Union I thought I would start planning a trip 🙃

#rereads I am a compulsive rereader. Once I've discovered a world I love, I will read it over and over again until the book falls apart. This is the only book where I will read pieces of it every week though. Every time I need a smile or a stress free break, I whip this out. What makes this whole thing even better is that she then wrote a novel set in this fantasy land. #booktober @RealLifeReading

So glad I bought this a few weeks ago. Any page I open to is good for a laugh and sure way to improve any lackluster day I have.
