Looking for a new book series, not all of these are required but this is what i’d prefer
Type: series, preferably one that’s already complete or at least has a decent amount already published
Genre: fantasy (any type of fantasy or even fantasy-ish sci-fi)
Genre blacklist: please no horror
age range: i’m 19 so ya, na, or adult are all fine. I’m fine with vulgar language and explicit scenes
POV: tend to prefer third-person and multiple pov but i’m open to any
Characters: would prefer there to be at least one male mc close to my age
Romance: yes please. I typically like slow burn that’s not central to the part. Preferably between two main characters. In the scythe series the dynamic between rowan and citra would have been perfect if they actually had more time on screen (idk what the correct term is) together
things i dislike:
when a story happens in the past and is being told or reflected on like in name of the wind.
when an author is afraid to kill people or be violent
similarly, when an author is afraid to make two people kiss or have sex
love at first sight
rape
enemies to lovers (tsundre is cringe but only entirely opposed)
happily ever after (when it’s forced)
big bad becomes good at the end
tropes i like:
guilty pleasure but chosen one
the quest
animal/creature companion
awesome old guy (or lady)
taverns/inns
getting a lot of money and buying things
some books i like:
cradle series (favorite all time)
mistborn
red rising
harry potter/percy jackson

{{The Wheel of Time}} series by Robert Jordan. This checks most of the boxes on your list. Plus the series was finished by Brandon Sanderson who wrote Mistborn.
{{Ender’s Game}} series by Orson Scott Card.
{{Alvin Maker}} series by Orson Scott Card. Historical fantasy. It isn’t completed, but it is still good.
{{The Dresden Files}} by Jim Butcher. I’ve been listening to the audiobooks and it’s my favorite series ever.
