more of this.

So, does anyone know of a community that will give you book recs? Like some of the fic search/genre search ones?

Because lately I've been having urges to read some types of books but really hate flooding my flist with requests.

Like, I really want to read boarding school books. And now, ballet/dancing books. Young adult, mostly.

If there is not a comm, there should be.

(also, if youknow any ballet/dancing books- rec me! and still looking for more boarding school books.)

(and fics in any of my fandoms that fit are welcome too!)

I used to read 'Mallory Towers' when I was in school. God I wanted to go to boarding school so damn much.
It's an all girls school and lots of them have boyish names <3

Or there's The Worst Witch, which was the first lengthy (imo) book I ever read. You may have read them already, since they're pretty popular kids books, but in case you haven't, it's an all-girl witches academy following Mildred who always screws up and gets into trouble.

Not really in the same line, but I really liked Stephen Fry's autobiography because that's set during his time at boarding school and is really very good to read.
