I've read a few fantasy books through my life, but just recently I've been so into it. I got a feeling that it might be one of my favorite genres. It's so exciting to know that there's so many great books that I can pick ❤ And your videos are helping me to pick my next reads so thank you!

One of my favorite YA fantasy series to read with my AP Spanish students was La ciudad de las bestias / The City of the Beasts by Isabel Allende. My students loved it and even though I’m no longer in the classroom, I enjoy reading this series every couple of years. Nobody ever talks about it, but I’m ever so happy I’ve had so many years to turn people on to this very cute series.

Just finished Empire of Silence and immediately started Howling Dark. Love it. I think it’s the type of SciFi story that fantasy readers will enjoy.

Congrats on 16K, and thank you for your hard work on this! Lists like these are always more telling than something arbitrary created by one person. I've actually read 6 of these with no interest in two of the others (Pierce Brown, Cassandra Clare) and the other two on my TBR for sometime in the future (Ruocchio, Dinniman). Of the 6 I've read, they were all awesome. I hope you read The Spear Cuts Through Water soon! In a few years I'm sure it'll be looked back on as a modern classic of the genre.

I enjoyed the characters in Swordcatcher but no magic really happened until the end, idk it wasn’t for me. I really enjoyed The Tainted Cup as it was a mystery in a fantasy world. Can’t wait to read more of Robert Jackson Bennett’s work. I definitely want to read the books you have on this list, many on my tbr. Love getting more into the fantasy world.

Thanks for the recommendations. I really love your channel and your personality is so warm and friendly. But if I could offer an opinion, i feel that it feels lately as if the content is not very diverse, just 4 weeks ago you posted 10 fabrasy books recommended by readers. Of course, i know how hard it is to create content and you can post what you want in your own channel. And hopefully this criticism came across as respectful and constructive as I intended.

I actually avoid r/fantasy because I've heard some uncomfortable horror stories about them from r/cozyfantasy and r/queersff.
