Romantasy
Romantasy: where villains are somehow hotter than heroes, “one bed” collides with ancient prophecies, and I’m left giggling, feral, and texting my bestie in all caps at 3 a.m.
The Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas is hands-down one of my favorite fantasy series of all time. I actually reread it at least once a year because it’s just that good.
From the very first book, Maas pulls you into a world full of assassins, ...
Throne of Glass Series
I love that it’s more than just a fantasy story,it’s a mix of romance, danger, and magic all wrapped up in one. The world-building completely pulls you in, and the characters feel so layered that you can’t help but get attached. I especially love how...
A Court of Thorns and Roses Series by Sarah J. Maas
Heartless Hunter by Kristen Ciccarelli and WOW it was such a ride. The world is dark and dangerous, with witches being hunted down and executed, and yet the story feels so alive and full of tension. I loved watching the push and pull between the ruth...

I just finished Shield of Sparrows by Devney Perry and wow, this one really stuck with me. Odessa has always been the princess in the background, overlooked compared to her sisters, and suddenly she’s the one chosen to marry a prince in a land she do...
Shield of Sparrows
I really enjoyed Fourth Wing! The dragons, the intensity, and the whole “survive or die” atmosphere hooked me right away. Violet was such a unique heroine, and I loved seeing her strength shine through in unexpected ways.
That being said… while I LO...

Absolutely perfect for fans of ACOTAR
Powerless
Romance
Books that have me giggling, kicking my feet, and questioning why real men don’t act like this.
I love the Honey Mountain series by Laura Pavlov so much that I read all of them at least once a year. The small-town setting, the cozy friendships, and the slow-burn romances make these books feel like visiting old friends. Each story is heartwarmin...
Always Mine: Small Town Friends-To-Lovers
Thriller/Mystery
The section where paranoia is my personality, every clue feels like a lie, and sleep? Never heard of her. Dark, twisty, & unhinged
I picked up Then She Was Gone and it completely pulled me in. Lisa Jewell does such a good job at creating that unsettling feeling where you know something is wrong, but you can’t quite put your finger on it until all the pieces start falling into pl...
Then She Was Gone: A Novel
The whole story is told through Dolores herself, and King does an amazing job making her voice feel completely real and raw. I was hooked from the first page, wanting to know exactly what happened and how she got to this point.
The book is dark and ...
Dolores Claiborne
It’s so much darker and more intense than I expected, with this slow-building tension that never lets up. Following the boys as they walk and try to survive this brutal, dystopian competition had me completely hooked. I can’t wait for the movie!

The books that raised me, shaped my imagination, and still live rent-free in my heart (and on my shelves).
This is the series that started it all for me. Little 4th grade me picked up Harry Potter and from that moment on, I was hooked on reading.
The magic, the friendships, the adventures,it felt like stepping into another world where anything was possi...
Harry Potter Collection
One of my all-time childhood favorites! I’ll never forget my 4th grade teacher reading this to us. Sophie and the Big Friendly Giant completely captured my imagination. The playful language, quirky characters, and magical adventures made me fall in l...
The BFG
This story of Opal and her scruffy dog, Winn-Dixie, completely captured my heart. I loved how funny, sweet, and heartfelt it was—full of quirky characters, small-town charm, and little life lessons that stuck with me. Winn-Dixie wasn’t just a dog; he...
Because of Winn-Dixie: Middle-Grade Classic
One of the first fantasy books I ever read, and it completely drew me in! I loved getting lost in the world of Alagaësia, following Eragon’s journey from a simple farm boy to a dragon rider. The dragons, magic, and adventure captured my imagination l...
