THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA THE CHONICLES OF NARNIA THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA--

The Chronicles would be my top recommendation! They're the absolute ultimate in good fantasy. Dragons, dark magic, palaces, beautiful places, high adventure, battles... They do get a bit dark at times, as fantasy generally does, but they're extremely well-written and the adventures the characters have are fascinating, like journeying to save a prince from an underground kingdom, or voyaging to the end of the world. They're written by C. S. Lewis, by the way. I'd recommend starting with The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, but you can also try The Magician's Nephew first. Either way, once you've read those two, you can go through the rest of the series - there are seven books in all.

Tom's Midnight Garden by Philippa Pearce is also quite good, though it's more historical fiction. It's about a boy who time-travels to the 1800s and discovers a mysterious garden, with its own strange cast of characters who become inextricably linked to his own life.

Time at the Top by Edward Ormondroyd is one of my favorite books ever, period - again, it's about time-travelling, and it just has the best characters, settings, and writing ever :)

All of Edward Eager's books are fantasy, and they have lots of witty banter and humor, which make them very fun to read. They're mostly light, enjoyable reading, about ordinary kids who stumble upon magic in their daily lives, but they do have some serious themes and exciting scenes. (Here's one of my favorite quotes from them: "Kip is a boy called Christopher, only he never is.")

The Penguin Book of Modern Fairy Tales, edited by Sara and Stephen Corrin, has a lot of great short stories, all fantasy (not fairy tales, despite the title) - you said you liked fluff, and these are rather fluffy, I think. They're certainly all light and humorous, very fun to read :)

Bedknob and Broomstick, by Mary Norton, is about some children who discover a witch and go with her on several adventures; quite an enjoyable read

Natalie Babbitt also has a lot of good fantasy, especially The Search for Delicious. I don't like all of her books, though; The Search for Delicious and The Moon Over High Street are the best ones, I think.

Oh, and Watership Down! It's by Richard Adams. It's from the point of view of a rabbit, and it's ultra-exciting and vivid. 

I think that's all for now :) I hope you enjoy the ones I mentioned! Lmk if you'd like any other suggestions :) 

I second Discworld stuff :D Watership Down and The Green Ember are also pretty good.

I think you'd really enjoy The Mistmantle Chronicles!! One of my favorite series—it's really well written, plus it's fantasy/adventure, and the main character isn't human. It's about an orphaned squirrel (found on the Night of the Riding Stars, where important events are said to happen) who grows up on the Isle of Mistmantle and becomes a Squire to one of the Captains of the King. Then there's some mysterious happenings/amassings of evil/general adventures :D

You also might like Redwall! I haven't read a ton of them but they sorta remind me of Warriors or the Mistmantle Chronicles. More fantasy/adventure (swords! travels! castles! sieges! epic tales of bravery!) with animal protagonists—stuff like badgers, moles, mice, etc. I don't think every story is connected chronologically (although some might be) so it's more like Warriors in that sense.

One of my comfort series is Gaurdians of Ga'Hoole. (even more fantasy/adventure with animals!!) It's from the point of view of an owl in an owl society essentially of legendary 'knights' who protect the weak/battle evil I guess. It might be directed at a slightly younger audience then my other recommendations but might still be enjoyable. If you liked it, the author has also written other similar series about different animals—I think there's one about wolves?

I think Promise of the Wolves was also decent—wolf protagonist, is told 'don't trust the humans' but ends up befriending one anyway which causes adventures and betrayal and other stuff :) it's been several years since I read this though.

I can also recommend other books :D but these are some I think you'd enjoy, based off series you liked. (please read Misetmantle at least... lol)

oh I think you'd also enjoy Dragon Rider!! It's from the perspective of this dragon who's on a long journey with his friends (a mountain spirit and a lonely boy) but is being hunted by an evil dragon and his homunculus.

All the ones said so far (like Narnia of course and the Girl who Drank the Moon) and maybe Lunar Chronicles (sci-fi, but if you're not really into sci-fi, still try it out because i usually don't like sci-fi and i loved this one), King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table (if you are into classics, surprisingly good), Mice of the Round Table (if you enjoyed King Arthur), Lord of the Rings, the Unwanteds, Amari and the Night Brothers, A Wrinkle in Time, Princess Academy, and the Tale of Emily Windsnap.

Well, I do have a few very good fantasy! 

Castle Glower by Jessica Day George

Land Of Stories by Chris Colfer

Morrigan Crow books by Jessica Townsend

Inkheart trilogy by Cornelia Funke

Spirit Animals by various authors

Fablehaven by Brandon Mull

Beyonders trilogy by Brandon Mull

The School for Good and Evil by Soman Chainani

The Casey Grimes series by AJ Vanderhorst

I hope these help!! 

It looks like you enjoy fantasy series, so I would definitely recommend the Aru Shah quintet by Roshani Chokshi. It's Rick Riordan Presents, and has very similar vibes to Percy Jackson, but is about Hinduism rather than Greek mythology. Very feminist and slay.

Also, The Incorrigible Children of Ashton Place series by Maryrose Wood. Mystery! Wolves! Victorian England! Puns! This is one of my favorite series and I reread it almost every year. 

thanks everyone! I'll read as many of these as I can get my hands on :D

Like A Charm by Elle McNicoll--really good, and it's a fantasy book although grounded in the protagonist's reality. Eventually there's magic in it. It's also partially about the protagonist's family, although not very much, and the protagonist (who's neurodivergent) trying to find her way in the world. There might be a sequel, although the author lives in London, so it may not be published in the US yet.

I don't know if anyone has said this yet, but Erin Hunter (the author of Warriors) has several other series about animals that aren't cats. I haven't actually read any, but you might enjoy them.
