The older I get, the more I realize I enjoy more the small details happening in the background (classes, interaction between students, etc.) than the main plot.
I know that cosy fantasy is a thing (I still have to read Legends and Lattes), so I was curious to see if people have other recommendations that could scratch that itch? Ideally with older characters (in their 30s?), that would probably be more relatable than teenagers.
I enjoyed the Magicians series, but it felt very college years focused, and unfortunately those years getting further every year.
It’s sci-fi rather than fantasy, but I’d still highly recommend The Wayfareres series and the two Monk and Robot books by Becky Chambers. They are exactly what you are looking for, but in a sci fi setting.
