Fantasy is one of my FAVORITE genres. Fantasy is things that could never possibly happen. Here's why this is one of my favorite genres.
Fantasy is, in my opinion, the best genre of books. The unrealistic characteristics that take you to other worlds are amazing. From Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling to The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis are truly amazing. If you want to escape the real world and experience unearthly adventures then this is the genre you want.
