    I haven’t read books in YEARS. I became too literal of an adult and am suddenly snapping back into the magic of imagination 🙂 My favorite book [series] in my teenage years was the Chronicles of Narnia. I read the Magician’s Nephew and the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. (Yes I also read the Twilight series, can’t remember how far I got lol this is a stretch tho)

    Looking mainly for fantasy, my science-fi really only expands into Star Wars lol which is one of my favs (1-6) along with LOTR/Hobbit series. I was a young teen when I first watched Revenge of the Sith and felt the absolute ripple affect of Anakin turning to the dark side (like it absolutely ripped me to my core bc at that point…I knew). And he was SO close to being an absolute banger of a Jedi (aka he would’ve been sooo good, so so soooo good 😭😭), but the dark took over his mind. Also on the same note is Stranger Things. It’s a bit more literal but even the high level idea of the Mind Flayer and Vecna preying on those with traumas, and ultimately they need to fight to overcome the dark (and IRL it’s like battling depression – we can’t let that darkness win). So in a different yet similar wind, I’m so into the balance between the light and dark in fantasy form vs self help/therapy form atm hahaha.

    And Chronicles of Narnia takes me to a different magical place because I read the book before I watched the movie. Deff wish I had read LOTR to let my imagination soar before watching the movies!

    Anyways I’d love to hear some more fantasy suggestions 🙂 TYIA!

    EDIT: I also like things that challenge the mind! Not that it’s a fantasy, but Shutter Island is a banger of a thriller for reference on that 😅
