My book club's fantasy pick turned me into a believer
I always stuck to serious fiction for our meetings, thinking fantasy was just for kids. Then our club voted for a fantasy novel, and I groaned inside. We read 'The Name of the Wind' by Patrick Rothfuss, and I dragged my feet starting it. Once I began, the world-building hooked me fast. The magic system felt real, and the characters had depth I didn't expect. At our debate, everyone pointed out themes about story-telling and truth. Hearing their takes helped me see the genre in a new light. Now I'm pushing for more fantasy reads, and our talks are way more fun.
