Especially YA. So much fun and blood and loyalties and traitors. SO MUCH STAKES. I recommend the And I Darken series. I read the first two books in high school and am finally reading the last book now in my twenties I donāt want to cause I donāt want to part ways but I have to I have to know how this epic ends.
With your interest in whimsy and YA fiction I would highly recommend Shepherd King Duology by Rachel Gillig. I flew through these books they were so engaging and had a really interesting magic system and a plot that doesnāt follow the standard āchosen oneā you see in a lot of fantasy.
If we were villains:
itās one of my new favs by ML Rios! Itās about a group of Shakespeare scholars that go to school in this prestigious university in BFE. They are doing a production of a play when someone turns up dead with no suspect. Itās super thrilling and an amazing use of shakespeareās text to tie the story together. 100% recommend if ur into horror/murder mystery! Crowns of Nyaxia:
This is a series by carissa broadbent that (currently) spans 2 main books as well as a couple spinoff books. The two main books are some of my faves in the fantasy genre. itās hunger games with vampires! thereās amazing fight scenes, gore, poetry, and a little smut if youāre into that. I read both of these books this summer and this is the first time that iāve read a spinoff in a series bc i loved the characters that much. enjoy expanding your horizons!!!!!
Deleted tiktok and finished three books in a week. I shouldāve deleted the app sooner. Itās actually so insane how ingrained tiktok scrolling has been in my daily routine. without the app I was just scrolling through the most random apps ever, then realized like damn this is a problem š I miss it bad but I also donāt need it. Twitter is next š I need to fill my time with productive and fulfilling activities, no more mindless scrolling ā¼ļø
