The only book on this list that I've read is KotLC, and I kind of liked it. Gave it 3 stars. Some of the other books on this list are ones I wanna read, but since I'm trying to save for a while, I won't be able to get them anytime soon. Maybe I'll make an exception, but we shall see...

Ok so this is going to be quite a long comment but I've been desperate for books like this/have this trope and I have no clue where to find them! Basically, I'm looking for YA books where the protagonist is a warrior/fighter in some way and they have a combat partner who is also their best friend. However, throughout the book, they fall for each other. The romance is more of a subplot but still a pretty prominent part of the book. Think Percy Jackson but YA. I'm open to pretty much anything, just keep it YA.

I know that people's lives aren't always as wonderful as they seem all the time,but you seem like you would be fun to live with and a fun friend to have! :-) I also like that you don't care about genres or age groups and you read all kinds of books. I do too and I think a good story is a good story no matter if it is kids,YA or adult. Been watching a lot of Booktubers do the solving the Agatha Christie mystery thing and I was hoping that maybe that would be something you might be interested in doing since I think with your personality and the hard awesome work you put into your videos that it would be fun to watch!
