I am looking for a series to get into. I want to spend some time with the character and the world. I love overarching plots that tie all the books together, stuff that make sense by the end and make the journey worthwhile. And I love good characters and a good world.
Some of the stuff I've read and liked before:
1) Harry Potter
2) A Song of Ice and Fire
3) Stormlight Archive
4) First Law Trilogy
I've also tried Lord of the Rings and Malazan, but I didn't like them at all.
Doesn't have to be fantasy, can be any genre as long as it's a great plot.

The mortal instruments, not my favourite but I did live with the characters
The witcher
I know this is probably something completely different from the ones you have mentioned in your post. However series The Seven Sisters by Lucinda Riley had me hooked, I listened to them on audio book and finished them within less than two weeks.
If you enjoy thrillers Linda Castillo has written a series taking place in an Amish community (Kate Burkholder series). It keeps you on your toes and you learn more about the main character Kate and her partner throughout the whole series.
Red Queen series, Lunar Chronicles, Graceling series, if you like Manga the Promised Neverland is really good, the Selection series
