Dark tower sucks! I am a Stephen k8ng fan who's read everything he's written but Dark tower isnt worth ot for the very few cool things in it. It took me four attempts over the course of 12 years to finally force myself through book 4. If dirty gross women is something you'd like to explore more check out "The Natural way of Things" by Charlotte Wood, I didn't really get what the author was trying to say but it was lnteresting. There are several and they deal with it in different ways, so its not one perspective, coping strategy, or internal reasoning. I liked Circe but i gave Song of Achilles 2☆ (yes I'm aware I'm kinda alone). I love John Gwynne ive read all of his books and am super hyped for fury of the Gods Dragon Rider by Taran Matharu was a very good dragon bonding book! I know it wasn't your fav but my fav water fantasy is still The Mermaid the Witch and the Sea. Funny story I just finished a 5 book series bc I thought you recommended it but i got the wrong books lol. I read Season of the Raven by Denise Donming not Season of Ravens... oops. It was good but totally the wrong thing.

I swear every John Gwynne book I read is better than the next.
