Honestly, I’m not a big fan of YA. I’ve only fully enjoyed reading two YA series, Six of Crows and The Infernal Devices. I guess what I loved so much about Six of Crows was that Kaz always kept things away from the other crew members, meaning he also kept them away from the reader. Once you thought you knew exactly what was happening, he revealed something or did something smart which left you shocked. Also, I enjoyed that even though Inej and Kaz seem to love each other, they never really developed an actual relationship. The series wasn’t love driven, but very plot driven.

I’m so pleased I watched this. I was nervous, seeing Six of Crows in the thumbnail, because I loved it and it prompted me to read everything else by her I could lay my hands on.

Seconding your view on the Iron Druid, although I’m not a big fan of Dresden either. I mean, I’ve read the whole of both series, but mainly because my brain needs something to focus on when getting ready to sleep (that isn’t anxiety and existential terror) and they can both do that, rather than because I think the writing/plots/characters are particular standouts. Otherwise thanks for the warnings for the other books, and I agree with your dad about the importance of the right reader.

Speaking of series: one of the things I love about the Discworld series is that it isn't written as a series. Terry Pratchett just wrote the stories he wanted to tell using the characters and world that he had created. If the existing characters couldn't tell the story he wanted to tell he made up new characters and sometimes new places in that world where he could tell the story. Every book is a complete story that happens to take place in an existing world. And every book is a story that Pratchett wants to tell. He never got stuck someplace he didn't want to be because he didn't limit himself to one set of characters or one type of culture.
