I’m trying to get back into reading, and for a few weeks have been reading a chapter (or half) of the Hobbit before bed.
Does anyone have recommendations for similar books? I’m not up to reading LOTR yet.
What I’m looking for are relatively chill books that don’t stress you out before bed, something that I can just let my imagination run with abd has a cozy feel, if that makes any sense at all.
Don’t care too much about genre, but I do like fantasy.
Edit: I should add I don’t like books like Candide or Hitchhikers Guide, HG was fun, but I can’t do “and stuff just keeps happening to the main character” types. And I know Candide is purposefully frustrating, bit it was too effective.
Maybe I should try 4th wing. My partner really liked them, she even bought the hard covers.
I’m not going to tell you to not read Fourth Wing because I really enjoyed it, but it may not be the cozy fantasy you are looking for. Minor spoilers; people die, violence happens, and there are sex scenes. I loved the books and recommend them, just wanted to give you a heads up.
Cozy fantasy was pretty huge a couple of years ago and there’s still a lot around. Lots in that genre would fit what you are looking for.
