I’m a young adult woman looking for books to get myself back into reading. Genres I’m looking for are fiction, fantasy specifically, realistic fiction, romance. Science fiction, things like that
Some examples of things I like:
The princess bride
Zoro
Harry Potter
Narnia
Hunger games
The kite runner
Percy Jackson
Rick and Morty
The odyssey
Greek mythology
Roman mythology
Egyptian mythology
The chosen
The great gastby
I know it’s not a very broad section but I’m looking to broaden my horizons
Any recommendations welcome!

*The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue* hits several of those categories and might up your alley.
The Queen’s Thief series by Megan Whalen Turner! Pretty grounded fantasy in a Greek inspired, cusp of the Renaissance setting with swoon worthy romance later in the series(not smut, but rather get to know these characters and why they’re perfect for each other, see exactly how they fill each other’s needs and desires? Now you get to know that they’re passionately in love(and loving passionately) just off the page…). The “main” character is sarcastic and has a rather dry sense of humor that keeps the books entertaining throughout, but these books have a lot of tenderness as well.
The first one is an extremely well written ya adventure romp, but the books shift in genre rapidly as the series progresses.
Throne of glass is a long series (8 books), but it’s what got me back into reading!! It’s a bit intimidating, so you may want to start somewhere else, but I was so enamored by the story I flew through it. I remember literally skipping class once so I could keep reading it😭
I wish you the best on your reading journey and hope you find something you love! x
