Genres or Tropes that I love in general:
– Murder Mystery, Detective/ solving crime/ catching the bad guys
– Redemption Arcs (Think Zuko from Avatar)
– Intelligent solutions to the problems characters are faced with (Think Leverage)
– Enemies or Friends to lovers
– Rich Fantasy Worlds like in Studio Ghibli that feel alive, High Stakes especially if it's a fantasy setting,
– Acts of kindness in romance (think Howl redecorating the entire castle for Sophie),
– Gangs or a sense of working as a team (Like in Crooked Kingdom)
I am happy to look into all books you recommend, popular or hidden gems!
Thank you in advance!! I really want to try getting back into reading in 2025 <3
