Usually I read sci-fi and tried my hand at fantasy. I just read a super disappointing series with too many immature characters who make stupid decisions without any growth and now need something fresh and new lol
I’d love the detective/explorer/archeologist/etc to be a main male character. Maybe he works with a female main character and there’s a romantic subplot that doesn’t overpower the main plot. Let it be seasoning to the main dish
I’m not afraid of dark themes, but I’m not looking for a depressive end.
Something with a setting before the 1950s (I’ve already read Sherlock Holmes and enjoyed them, but looking for a more contemporary author)
Basically looking for something fun and exciting to read after being disappointed!
