   This genre is absolutely one of the kings. You could say that from beginning to end, the protagonist never wavers, always thinking about going home. He's invincible in the main storyline, but useless in the alternate storyline. The thing is, I've seen a bunch of people recommending stories completely unrelated to this genre, so I wanted to give one a try.

    The female protagonist is transported to another world, desperately wanting to return home. Although she doesn't find her way back, thankfully her family all comes to this other world. It also has many unique settings. Many plants and animals are exceptionally large. For example, parrots are bigger than people and can carry people in flight! The parrot Jinx is especially adorable. It's a very interesting novel, with no frustrating plots or characters; it's excellent.
