I wasted my youth not reading this beautiful series by Ursula K. LeGuin and I thought it deserved to be the first post here. Having read so much fantasy over the years, I can see so much of it in the books that have come out more recently. It’s the type of book that is written so that every single word has a purpose, and doesn’t languish in one place or another. I highly recommend the audiobook version as well.

    The audiobook version is done so well! Every time I make my way through this world again I get irritated with the Ghibli movie adaptation lol

      I already got duped by the BBC radio version because I thought it was one of those book bundles–is it worth listening? I have to read the rest of the series before starting so I’m curious if it’s worth it.

        Idk about the BBC Radio Version but the version they have on Audible was very enjoyable imo.
