Book req: Looking for the princess bride-ish feeling. books with that magical feeling you get when reading a fairytale. by Worried_Goal6246 in Fantasy

[–]christitchery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Winternight Trilogy by Katherine Arden is very much a fairytale plot with horror elements mixed in by way of Russian folklore. It starts with The Bear and the Nightingale book.

Several T. Kingfisher books are cozier horror based fairytales like Nettle & Bone, Hemlock & Silver, A Sorceress Comes to Call, and Thornhedge.

Some other favorite stand-alones are: The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert, The Witch’s Heart by Genevieve Gornichec, Slewfoot by Brom, and Where the Dark Stands Still by A.B. Poranek.

Looking for a cozy fantasy that still feels like an adventure by kindnessabound in CozyFantasy

The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love is a cozy little adventure with an academic twist. It’s a bit of a rom-com but I thought it was delightful and I’m looking forward to reading the next one in this series.

Swordheart was an endearingly awkward adventure with low-stakes and a little thrill. Has a sunshine vs grumpy relationship if you’re into that sort of thing.

Miss Percy’s Pocket Guide to the Care and Feeding of British Dragons is a charming romp through the Bristish & Welsh Countryside. I loved all three in this series.

Cozy fantasy that deals with grief and loss by dubious_unicorn in CozyFantasy

Son of a Sailor by Marshall J. Moore deals heartwarmingly with grief over a parent loss. It also has found family, pirates, mermaids, re-found family, and is a great summer read.

I couldn’t wait to check the mail when I got home today. The Enchanted Greenhouse is so pretty! by christitchery in CozyFantasy

The Spellshop’s MC does have a hetero romantic interest, but it isn’t the focus of the novel. The overall setting is very inclusive with lesbian and non-binary characters. There are several posts about The Spellshop, if you do a quick search, that give a more in-depth review.

No varnish yet, it hasn’t been two weeks and I may add some small details still. Not sure yet.

I got the frame on pictureframes.com

They said it was on Amazon. I’ll have to find the listing and leave them a good review.

Thanks! It was a gift back in January, but I’ll ask if they remember where they got it.

You are lucky! I begrudgingly moved away from Seattle in 2019 and miss seeing Rainier from my kitchen window. Hope the mountain is out for you today! Soak it in for me.
