The link up for today at The Broke and the Bookish was "All time favorite books in X genre". I chose fantasy as that's probably my favorite reading genre. :) While it is my favorite genre I haven't actually read tons of books in that genre so we'll see if I get a list of ten. And these are in no way in any order, though LOTR is definitely number one.

- The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien (duh)
- The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
- The Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis
- The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis
- The Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling
- Redwall series by Brian Jacques
- Eragon by Christopher Paolini (first one is good but I don't really care for the others)
- The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander
- The Wizard of Oz series by L. Frank Baum
- Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Caroll
We'll I did come up with ten, though I wasn't exactly consistent with how I listed them (some I listed series, some I listed single titles). I'm so afraid I missed something obvious but who knows. I went scrolling through lists of fantasy books which jogged my memory. I almost forgot certain books/series were fantasy. :)
P.S. I know I said I'd announce the winners for my giveaway today. Please know I haven't forgotten... I am going to post it later on today. :)

The Horse and His Boy is one of my favourites, too. My absolute favourite of the series is The Magician's Nephew, though, I'll always have a soft spot for that. New follower, hi!

Thanks for following! I can't wait to check out your blog! :)
DeleteNow that I think of it, I wish I had included The Magician's Nephew. I do like it better then LWW but nothing can beat The Horse and His Boy. :)
Great list! Yay for everything Tolkien <3 For some reason I never got around to C.S. Lewis' books; I remember picking it up in the library but then didn't get around to it on time and then had to return it *blushes* My brother grew up enjoying Brian Jacques' Redwall books (I read one, as I recall, and enjoyed that title enough; been meaning to read the other books on his shelf, lol).

How did you get away with not reading The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe? ;)
Deletethat's a great list. All but two would make my all time favorite fantasy list. I've never cared for Alice in Wonderland and Paolini made me gag :( kelley—the road goes ever ever on
ReplyDeleteI was running short on titles in my memory so I added Paolini in. :) Not my favorite but good in its own right. :)
DeleteRedwall! I forgot about Redwall. I LOVED that series. Here's my Top 10
ReplyDeleteRedwall was probably my favorite series growing up and i still enjoy them now, though I actually haven't read any of them within the last year or so.
DeleteRedwall!!! I absolutely adored that series. Still do, in fact. I'd love to get a chance to reread it someday... when my TBR pile is a little less *looming*, lol.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean. :) I used to reread them all aout once a year butI haven't recently. I need to get back to them. :)
DeleteGreat list!

I never heard of the Redwall series, but I looked it up on Goodreads, and I think I'm going to check it out! :)
