I have read many books, but these are a few of the ones that I have truly enjoyed. Throne of Glass is my favorite series ever, but don’t tell the other girls because I don’t actually care for ACOTAR, Crescent City, or even Fourth Wing (I promise I’ve read them all). I want a book that requires a whole lot of world and character building as well as an awesome and unique magic system. There’s an added bonus if there’s a completely bad ass female main character too.
