I can’t really get into fantasy, the only books I genuinely liked were the Percy Jackson series. I tried reading the first Harry Potter book but I got bored immediately and I would have to force myself to read it. I don’t like forcing myself to read, I’d rather have to force myself to stop reading yk what I mean? Then Lord of the Rings? No. I just know it’s not the one for me even though I never tried reading it. Btw I don’t mind reading books with white main characters but I would like books with black main characters as well. Dark fantasy is also a yes, I love vampires & werewolves but no to the Twilight series. Any suggestions?

The Mithgar series by Dennis L. McKiernan is really similar in a lot of ways to Lord of the Rings, but much more fast-paced and not as dry. I think LoTR is technically much better, but the Mithgar series is much easier to get into right away.
The Dresden Files has a really cool world, a great protagonist, and it’s a pretty exciting series overall.
The Nightside series by Simon R. Green is super unique, has an awesome world, the characters are incredible, and it keeps a good pace throughout.
All relatively quick, easy, fun (imo) reads.
