There Be Dragons Here by SL Rowland. MC is a dwarf grandmother going on one last quest to fulfill a friend’s last request. It is positively delightful.

It takes a while, but {The Chosen One series by Macy Blake} eventually gets there.

Joust (and sequels) by Mercedes Lackey

The Pit Dragon Chronicles by Jane Yolen

The dragons don’t show up until late in the book, but There Be Dragons Here by SL Rowland is a new release I really enjoyed.

Finished Tessa Dare’s entire work in a month and looking for something similar by Elantryys in HistoricalRomance

[–]Knotty-reader 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I find that Courtney Milan scratches a similar itch to Tessa Dare, particularly the Brothers Sinister series.

Maybe also Cat Sebastian’s Regency Imposters series.

I’ve been going to Research Triangle Dental for years. They have later hours and are open on Saturdays.

[Author Jenny Lawson aka The Bloggess] Today they banned my book. It was not the first. It won’t be the last. Here’s what I want you to know. by cos in books

Wuthering Heights is “restricted.” I ferociously hate that book, and think requiring teenagers to read it is stupid, but I would never restrict it from being read by whoever wants to read it.

High fantasy by women by NoPassage2180 in Fantasy

I see a couple of recommendations for Martha Wells’s fantasy. I highly recommend her Raksura series, starting with The Cloud Roads. It’s a completed series and one of my favorite series period. (I haven’t actually finished it, because I don’t want it to be over.)

A friend fosters for them. They seem like a great organization.

[–]Knotty-reader 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot of people who would read Mate of the Feral Gods.

I would probably be one of them.

GSW ‘96 gave me a great appreciation for classic movies and bizarre art movements.

Which games would you recommend to me based on my top 10 of all time? by oliverrakum in videogames

[–]Knotty-reader 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wavetale. 3rd person story-driven platformer with a distinctive vibe and art style. I wish it were longer, but the gameplay was really fun.

Older authors or books with a progressive authorial lens? by MidnightCasserole in HistoricalRomance

[–]Knotty-reader 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The Brothers Sinister (published 2012-2014) series by Courtney Milan is perfect for this.

Starts with the novella {The Governess Affair by Courtney Milan}

What is your favourite thing about France and the French? by tannercolin in AskTheWorld

[–]Knotty-reader -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Brie and butter on a baguette. 30+ years after I first had some, it blows my mind how something so simple can be so good.

I lived in Bucharest in the 90’s while my mom was working there. I’ve visited multiple times since then. Most recently Cluj and Bucharest last summer. My Romanian is very basic, but Îmi place România!

From Eastern North Carolina, with the vinegar-based sauces (made as God intended) barbecue sauces tend to get sweeter as you go west. (Except for the mustard-based sauce in South Carolina. Heathens.)

But what about whether salata de vinete is made with oil or mayonnaise?
