His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman. Loved them as a kid, still love them now. Already pre-ordered The Book of Dust that’s coming out in October.

I’ve just ordered the His Dark Materials books (based on my compiled stalking data from this site ? ha); is it YA? I don’t mind if it is…just curious..

It’s similar to Harry Potter in that it’s technically a children’s series but it’s enjoyable for adults too. They’re books that grow with you.

Although it’s not a series, several of Marian Keyes’ books revolve around the Walsh family. Others may briefly mention a member of the family. “Watermelon” is the first and my favorite ????

Oh I loved the trilogy by sharon Kay penman – began with Here Be Dragons. One of my favourites for sure. But he warned: you’ve just got to power through the first 150 pages of Here Be Dragons … it’s not an easy slog. But once you get there, it is amazing!!

If you are a fan of The Sword of Truth and Game of Thrones, would you be interested in a Medieval Fantasy series that’s basically a Harry Potter type character in a Game of Thrones type world?

Yes ?? Do tell?

I’ve been writing a book series called Taraquin and have been posting it on Wattpad. Here’s the link to the first half of book 1 in the series. I’m also posting the second half, but I posted it as book 2 for wattpad purposes.

Book 1 in the series isn’t done yet, but I’m about to hit 85k words. I’m guesstimating it will be completely done at around 110k. Then I need to do some editing before I try to get it published.

Yes, I saw this plug on another feed and I will check it out. I know it’s hard getting started and I’ll always support a new writer when I can. Best of luck to you..

They are fantastic books. Funny poignant clever and very very 1950’s British – although the writer is Canadian. I have just ordered the 9th book – only when I looked them up for this post did I realise there was a new one!!!

For those of you who love Harry Potter or Game of Thrones, I’m writing a series that’s kind of a mash up of the two. I was told by a reader that it’s like Harry Potter meets Game of Thrones, so I started using that as a tagline, lol.
