Romantasy
Do not let the term “Romantasy” steer you away. These books have the fantasy world you can totally immerse yourself in, and the characters you get to know intimately. There is action and adventure, plot twists, character development and attachments t...
It’s the perfect blend of fantasy, romance, and kick-ass main character. Totally easy to binge read and fully immerse into Basgiath.
Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
Book #2 in the Empyrean Series!
I’ll be honest with you, I started with this one on accident. Had to buy the first one to figure out what I missed.. and absolutely FLEW through it once I got to start it. I was ADDICTED. And had such a book hangover.
...
Iron Flame (The Empyrean, #2) by Rebecca Yarros
Book 3 in the Empyrean Series! Just when you think you have a grip in this series, Rebecca comes in with more twists, and turns, and leaves you hanging (again.. book hangover, and in limbo waiting for book 4). Character development (and attachment) a...
Onyx Storm (Wing and Claw Collection) (The Empyrean, 3): Yarros, Rebecca
Strong female leads. If that’s what you’re looking for, try this. Set in a dystopian era, but our “protagonist” has a special set of skills.. namely theft. Amongst other things. She and her best friend have figured out how to put their skills to work...
Powerless (The Powerless Trilogy, #1) by Lauren Roberts
BOOK 2! Honestly i binged this whole series.. it was so good.
In a series that really was like a secret “enemies to lovers”, it’s such a twist to have the lovers go to enemies.. this hurt my heart. The complication and the yearning. The underlying fe...
Reckless (The Powerless Trilogy) Book 2 by Lauren Roberts
BOOK 3! I struggled with this one. How can someone even debate love versus duty.. love of one brother, but duty to another. As much as that sounds like the vampire diaries, i promise this storyline was different and deep. Society was her obligation. ...
Fearless (The Powerless Trilogy) Book 3 by Lauren Roberts
Book 1 of 6.
If you are craving a high-stakes, gritty fantasy that blends brutal world-building with an intoxicating enemies-to-lovers slow burn, Stacey Marie Brown’s Savage Lands is the perfect entry point into a world you won't want to leave.
The ...
Savage Lands (Savage Lands Series by Stacey Marie Brown - Book 1)
Dystopian
I think we’ve all read or watched series like Divergent, the Hunger Games, etc. This book also has a dystopian setting, where society really regulates its people, and at a certain age group, marriage is forced or may never happen for its young women....
The Grace Year by Kim Liggett
What a wild ride this book is. I read it in a book club (shoutout to the fable app) and FLEW through it. It was so good!
As a highmage, Sciona has her entire world turned upside down. Everything she knows to be true. Wrong. What she knows about life ...
Blood Over Bright Haven by M.L. Wang | Goodreads
Freida McFadden Thrillers
We love a good plot twist, and Freida is full of them. Yes this book did become a movie with an amazing cast, but i highly recommend reading the book. The twist was SO good. So good, I’ll have two more recs for you in this series because of it!
The Housemaid (Book 1 of 3) by Freida McFadden
Book 2 of 3! The twists never stop! But Millie is back at it again in this second installment (and it sounds like movie #2 is scheduled for release in 2027).
If you read book 1, or saw the movie, you’ll understand how easy of a read this is, yet soo ...
The Housemaid's Secret (Book 2) by Freida McFadden
We’ve definitely followed Millie’s ups and downs at this point, and have made it to the third and final installment of her story. A strong woman protagonist (i guess depending on who you ask they may disagree lol) in a role unlike any we’ve seen. No ...
The Housemaid Is Watching (Book 3 of 3)
🌶️🔥 Not your mommas book recs.. or maybe they are?
Book 2 in this spicy series. While our couple from book 1 is no longer the focal point, Navessa does a great job building on the small amount of info we have on new characters, and keeping us immersed in this world.
Tropes per Amazon:
Stalker romanc...
Caught Up (Into Darkness, Book 2) by Navessa Allen
This book was EVERYWHERE, from booktok to biketok, to my office at work.. lol.
No judgement on your kinks here. Embrace them. This book will keep your attention, and maybe have you questioning what other tropes you might like reading. Brace yourself....
