Thanks!! â¤
Uuh⌠right now I canât think of anything particularly with Faes butâŚ
Uprooted by Naomi Novik is a gorgeous piece of art and I totally recommend it, it doesnât have faes but itâs one of my inspirations!
The Winternight Trilogy by Katherine Arden: fairytale-like and Russian folklore! Def another of my inspirations!
Mahou Tsukai no Yome by Yamazaki Kore. Itâs a manga but itâs a HUUUGE INSPIRATION, with Faes and magic and Celtic folklore, the art is gorgeous, the characters are lovely and the story is just enthralling!! I feel like reading it gives you a better hindsight on Stories of Qelt haha >u>â
With Hat Atelier by Kamome Shirahama. Another manga which inspired me a heckton, and the art is beautiful!! I totally recommend it!
Aria/Aqua series by Kozue Amano is not exactly a manga but it has some supernatural elements which make the whole story (gorgeously drawn, wholesome and makes you fall in love with the little things in life) even more enthralling.
The Kingkiller Chronicle by Patrick Rothfuss mentions Faes (I only read the first book for now tho) and is beautifully written. Iâm in a period where Iâm getting tired of traditional medieval fantasy so I didnât expect myself to be so taken by the book and to finish it so fast!
AND ANY BOOK BY BRANDON SANDERSON, WHOSE EXISTENCE REASSURE ME EVERYTIME I GET ANOTHER IDEA FOR A NEW PROJECT BECAUSE THAT MAN IS WRITING SEVERAL 800+ PAGES BOOKS AT THE SAME TIME (also writes beautiful non-traditional fantasy with amazing characters and well-crafted magic systems)
Thatâs all I can think for now! I did read some other book with faes but the only one I can remember, I didnât really like it >_>â and for now I donât remember any titles⌠shame on me.Â
If anyone else has recommendations for good fae books, feel free to shoot me an ask!!
