I love literature as much as the next person but sometimes I want to just shut my brain off and immerse myself in a simple engaging story. Any suggestions?

    A wizard of earthsea, the curse of chalion, the vorkosigan books, enders game, the aubrey/maturin books, the vlad taltos books, discworld books, the kingkiller chronicles.

    I find all those to be pretty immersive; i hope you find one you like.

      Beware of the kingkiller chronicles

      Ended up being one of my favorite book series of all time and when I was almost done with book two, I learned that book three hasn’t been released in over 10 years. It’s a whole thing with fans going a little crazy over it.

        Even aside from the “may or may not ever see this” of book 3, book 2 is pretty different from book 1. I thought a lot of book 2 got pretty dull.
