Recently I've gotten really bored of reading standalones and I'd love to find a series (or multiple) to really suck me in. I'm not very picky so here's some info to help:
1. I'm 21 and female
2. I stay away from smut
3. I LOVE thriller, suspense, romance, fantasy, really anything but I'm not a huge fan of sci-fi
4. I've already read the classic LOTR, Harry Potter, Divergent, Hunger Games, etc. with Hunger Games being my favorite out of those
Thanks!!!

habe you read {{Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett}}? the first book is currently on sale.
{{Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo}} and {{Shades of Magic by V. E. Schwab}} are also great.
The Wandering Inn Pirate Aba
Michelle Sagara West Chronicles of Elantra,
Scythe by Neal Shusterman (little bit of sci-fi, but in dystopian way like Divergent)
Have you read Stalking Jack The Ripper (mystery, historical fiction and a little bit of romance) by Kerri Maniscalco? It’s a series of 4 books, so far I’ve only read the first one and loved it.
As long as you can handle reading sex scenes (I think there’s only one, and I’d by no means consider this book smut), I’m thoroughly enjoying reading *Immortal Longings* by Chloe Gong. The second book *Vilest Things* is already out, I don’t know if there will be a third or ongoing beyond that.
It’s technically sci-fi in the same way *The Hunger Games* is also technically sci-fi, a futuristic-ish dystopian society is the larger focus. The plot is also obviously heavily influenced by *The Hunger Games* without at all feeling like a cheap ripoff or copy/paste. Gong’s writing style is both elegant and cutthroat, and the pacing hooked me in fast and strong!
Check out the Elemental Logic series by Laurie Marks.
John Marsden: Tomorrow, When the War Began + sequels, 7 volumes in all, from Australia.
