Cuckoo SongFrances Hardinge
Loved it

And I thought this one was a really fun concept. I like the historical setting. It had some really interesting twists and turns that I wasn't expecting and I would again just highly recommend it.

I love a book that has a sort of like light academia touch, maybe because I've spent so much of my life in academia, and I like seeing kind of the witty way that world is brought to life in this full historical setting, but with the added bonus of it being so magical and fantastical.

I think that they're all fantastic. They're all really interesting and I really enjoy books like this which give me like a little sampling of different authors, different classics, and different kind of traditions.

I HATE FAIRYLANDSkottie Young
Loved it

it's utterly bizarre, but absolutely brilliant. Like, conceptually, that is so much fun, and the art style suits it so perfectly because it is this like super cutesy, colorful style full of like blood and gore.

Lords and LadiesTerry Pratchett
Loved it

Again, the fairies are wild and sometimes cruel and very, very entertaining, and the interact with the world of witches and other magical beings in this series is just, like I said, a ton of fun.

The Cruel PrinceHolly Black
Loved it

I binged this series back when I think the third one came out cuz I read them all back-to-back and could not put them down. They're a ton of fun.

The Wee Free MenTerry Pratchett
Loved it

I actually read it when I was maybe 10 or 11 for the first time and absolutely adored it, and it very much introduces a new protagonist character, so it doesn't feel like you need to be familiar with the other characters of his Discworld to read.
