Right? I was so hooked on those books. And then I found the Sabriel/Abhorsen trilogy (apparently there are more now?) from Garth Nix. Fuck Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. A young girl who adopts the 7 bells of the Abhorsen, a necromancer who puts down the dead, and has to protect the kingdom in the north where magic rules and technology dies? Where she has a pet cat who is a giant demon held by the small bell around his neck? Where magic is cast via musical notes?
FUCK. YES.
Those things are apparently Young Adult but they are NOT. They're for full on adults and everyone slept on them. INCREDIBLE series that I cannot recommend enough. The book opens with her resurrecting her school mates dead rabbit. I mean... come on.

I read Clariel, Goldenhand and Terciel & Elinor as an adult and found them equally enjoyable as the original 3 when I was a kid. My mum is in her 60s and currently borrowing my copy of T&E. Highly recommend!
Goddammit. I'm already not eating the next couple days because of my cat scaring the hell out of me. Please don't say that and add another expense to my wallet. I literally cannot afford it....
But I do have a library near by... Goddammit I'm gonna end up disappearing for a week and reading these books.
