I haven’t done a Top 5 Wednesday in what feels like forever, but it’s actually only been a few months. Which is still a long time, but it really just fell to the wayside and none of the topics grabbed me. But I’m finally back at it this week talking about soem of my favorite Science Fiction and Fantasy Creatues.
Dragons
What’s not to love about dragons. They can be fierce and deadly or protective companions and I really love every iterations.
Goblins & Trolls
These are some of the SFF creatures that I think are so underrated! There alwats strong, fierce, and fearsome and I love them.
Mermaids & Sirens
This is really for all humanoid oceanic creatures in general but I love a good mermaid or siren story. The literal fish-out-of-water stories are always so fun to read and I honestly never get sick of them.
Werewolves & Shifters
I am such a sucker for all kinds of shifter stories and I think they’re so criminally underrated I hate it. I don’t even know what it is, but I’m like 90% guaranteed to pick up a book if I know there’s some kind of shifter in it, but it’s never really taken off and that makes me sad.
Fae
I don’t know what it is about Fae and Faeries but they get me every time. They can be so unique to an author’s mythology that it really shapes and builds the world. Love them.
So what are some of your favorite SFF creatures? Do you have any recommendations? Share below!
