Currently reading Lolita, after I have book 3 of the Millennium series and book 3 of the expanse.

Also begrudgingly waiting for the next Crescent City and ACOTAR books, we have a mini book club at work and I’ve already invested too much time into these books to give up now lmao

Yeah I got up to act/part 3, but decided to take a break and now it’s been a couple months. I started reading some other stuff so I just haven’t had the time to go back. Really well written, just also really slow to pick up steam lol

Between Two Fires by Chris Buelhman

I had heard good things about the book, and while it is fantastic, its very dense and plodding and very depressing. There are chapters that leave me in awe but then there are 4 chapters of slow depression that bring the story to a grinding halt.

I only have a third of the book left so I might finish it later but man it’s rough to read sometimes

I mean they’re still fantasy books, just with a heavy lean towards romance. If your search criteria is just fantasy there’s no way to know whether you want romance included or not. I get it, I’m tired of YA romance but once you know the authors to look for you can get related books that generally skew towards your preferred type of fantasy
