Im trying to find a couple books as a gift for my gf who loves to read and owns over 400 books. her favorite genre is fantasy, and loves Sarah J Maas and the Furyborn series. While I like to read, i typically don’t read fantasy and any book i mention that sounds interesting she’s already read.
I’m looking for really good books that wouldn’t necessarily be on all the “hot reads” lists or book tok so i have a better chance of her not having read it already. any genre is appreciated because she does love to read anything (plus now i’m curious about y’all’s underground favorites), but fantasy/ACOTAR-esque would be great too.

I wonder if she wouldn’t have heard of some old-school fantasy titles / series, precisely because they’re older and probably not mentioned often on BookTok? Like the Alanna series by Tamora Pierce or Sabriel by Garth Nix. Both are YA with female heroines who I adore. If she’s e.g. an 80s/90s kid who devoured all the fantasy in her library growing up, then she probably will have heard of / read them, but if fantasy is something she’s got into more recently via current popular series then maybe not.
