The only thing we’re sorry about is our forever-growing TBR list.
Renowned Fantasy Authors
Ah, fantasy. The land of defying reason, where wizards glide, and powers are discovered; an escape where anything is possible. We love fantasy; we can’t even begin to imagine the world of literature without this beloved genre! Whether you’re into magic, dragons, pirates, or all of the above, fantasy has a special spot for everyone. And we have some incredible authors to thank.
Fiction Genres
There’s so much more to explore beyond the words of fiction and non-fiction. With just fiction alone, there are dozens of genres and sub-genres to look through; no wonder libraries are so BIG!
In this word search puzzle, we’ve listed a few fiction genres that are close to many bookworms’ hearts. Believe us, if there was room, we would have listed even more!

Celebrated YA Authors
YA (Young Adult) Fiction is, of course, written with young adults in mind, but even adult readers love the coziness and vibe of a good YA novel. Perhaps it’s that coming-of-age feeling that reels us in, but in any case, there are hundreds of amazing YA novels that deserve praise. This is why it was difficult for us to choose a handful of YA authors to include in this word search puzzle!
Walk through the Library
Everyone bookworm knows the feeling of cracking open a book and taking a deep and intentional inhale. Ah, that delightful book smell; pack it in a candle and give us more!
You can get that book smell and an authentic book experience at the library. Each town’s library is unique, and you may not even realize how many cool, free, and wonderful things are available for their community, and that’s not even counting the tons of free books you can check out!
Seriously, libraries are very underappreciated; you should check out your public library.
Authors of our Childhood
Remember bedtime stories, or listening to the librarian or school teacher read a story? Those were the golden days, and these are some marvelous authors from many booklover’s childhoods. From the days of picture books to the more challenging chapter books in younger years, these authors and their books brought out worlds that expanded our imagination and may have imprinted on us in more ways than one. Enjoy your trip down memory lane!
