On a Sunbeam by Tillie Walden. It is a very fantastic graphic novel / webcomic about found family and queerness, I read it as a teenager and it has heavily affected me.
The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers. Also a sci-fi found family story with queer themes but in the form of a novel. The worldbuilding and stories told in the Wayfarer’s series has moved me to tears multiple times <3
Blackshirts and reds is one of my Favorit
Monopoly Capital. After reading Marx, it was like a second set of blinders fell off.
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series. Delightfully absurd and existential.
The Lost World: Jurassic Park 2
Dracula
Moby-Dick
The Lost World(1912)
After Ninety Years
War of the Worlds
Journey to the Center of the Earth
The Bear: History of a Fallen King
My favourites are all escapism from this hellworld.
Jean Auel - Earth’s Children series
Diana Gabaldon - Outlander series
Tom Slemen - Haunted Liverpool series
Patricia Leitch - Jinny At Finmory series
C S Lewis - Narnia series
I mostly like comic novel series
- Dork Diaries
Its similar to my favorite story, Miraculous
- Penny Pepper
The closest a book series I’ve read got to a cartoon
- Diary of a
NoobWarrior
Instead of fantasy based on real life, this is fantasy based on Minecraft
- Trouble is a friend of mine
This is not a comic novel series, but the text’s signal-to-noise ratio is really good, so I can still read it without getting overwhelmed
A side question, does LemmyGrad have a presence on Bookwyrm? I mean, we discuss books and Bookwyrm is all about discussing books

war and peace
stoner
death comes for the archbishop
pride and prejudice
just some off the top of my head :)Heretics of Dune (Dune book 5). After the slow books 2-3 and contemplative 4, the bonkers action and bizarre concepts are really refreshing. It was also neat to get a deeper look into the world.
