Suggest me a book/series that you loved, but that no one else seems to know about, that you never see getting recommended anywhere. I'll start:
Years ago i was in a used bookstore and bought this book called dreaming of amelia by jaclyn moriarty. Its part of the Ashbury/Brookfield series. It's a ya series with 4 books, about a bunch of students from a public and a private highschool. They take place in the same universe but the stories aren't actually related. Honestly I only got it because i liked the cover(i guess sometimes you should judge books by theor covers), and ended up loving it, and even read other books by this author which are also pretty great.
I would also recommend Gravity is the thing, which is a lovely story about loss and growth and acceptance, with a little bit of whimsy. I've been on this sub for a couple of years and never seen anyone talk about these books.
So please share your favourite 'obscure' books. Any genre is fine, as long as its fiction.

For some reason, John Hart is not as well known as he should be. King of Lies and Down River were the first I read of his.
My two favorite “obscure” books (and they’re only obscure because they’re Indy published) are “Shabin – the Reluctant Prince of Rhime” and “Fish Wielder.”
Legacy and Phantom both by Susan Kay
Historical fiction on the highest level
“The Rooftop” by Fernanda Trías – a novel about a self-secluded mother’s journey into complete paranoia. Short but packs a good punch.
It’s non-fiction, but “The eyes of tailless animals”
