The older I get, the more I realize I enjoy more the small details happening in the background (classes, interaction between students, etc.) than the main plot.
I know that cosy fantasy is a thing (I still have to read Legends and Lattes), so I was curious to see if people have other recommendations that could scratch that itch? Ideally with older characters (in their 30s?), that would probably be more relatable than teenagers.
I enjoyed the Magicians series, but it felt very college years focused, and unfortunately those years getting further every year.
You might enjoy the Chronicles of Prydain, especially some of the later books like Taran Wanderer
I read the first book a while ago, thanks for reminding me!
