    Magnolia Parks was the book where the author ripped my heart out, set it out fire, and danced on it! Sobbing at 3am because the last page. Can’t wait to continue the series!

    If you like Sarah J Maas then you will love Brandon Sanderson!!! An absolutely incredible fantasy author. He is a master at creating worlds, characters, and plots. I recommend starting with either The Reckoners series or Mistborn.

    I read a new favorite this year: Winterwood by: Shea Ernshaw . Winterwood had everything that I look for in a book...spooky, haunted forest, water, mysterious disappearance. I usually do not care for romance in a book, but this one was done subtly, so naturally, and believable that I ended up emotional about the characters. It ended so beautifully, and the descriptions of the forest, and winter were some of the most gorgeous writings that I have ever seen, the definition of atmospheric 10/10.

    Okay, two huge recommendations by me: The Dance of Thieves duology by Mary E. Pearson is my all-time favorite fantasy series and in my top books of all time. My favorite book from this year was The Paris Secret by Natasha Lester. It is a hard-hitter of a book but an absolute masterpiece and made me so grateful for life and our war heroes.

    Fav books of year, all because of your recommendations 👏 - Malibu Rising, Seven Husbands, Heart Bones and Swear On This Life. I don't think that i will ever read Fantasy Books (i just know that they would not be my vibe) BUT in saying that, this year i have discovered that i have an interest in Thriller/Mystery books.. I don't like scary movies at all because of the anticipation of jump scares that you get from the music etc... and obviously when you are reading a book yourself, there are no jump scares but i freaking love the weird storylines. 💖

    If you want a Fantasy that’s gonna draw you in like a sarah j maas book, then i highly recommend The Bone shard Daughter by Andrea Steward! It’s incredibly well crafted and makes you wanna reread every Chapter immediately after finishing it. The foreshadowing and the plottwists are incredible. I would really love for you to red this ❤

    I only read 3 books this year (just getting out of a big reading slump hahah) - and one I think you’d also really enjoy- is Dance Of Thieves by Mary E. Pearson. It’s got a little bit of everything in it, but the romance definitely felt pretty central. It also has a lot of emphasis on family relationships and friendships too, and lots of found family. The only reason I err on giving it 5/5 stars is bc I felt like parts of the plot relied a little too much on poor/no communication, which is a huge pet peeve for me. But I also don’t typically enjoy romance (and often actively avoid it) but I actually really enjoyed the romance in this one.
