I'm looking for a long fantasy or fiction (mystery, sci fi, YA) series/world that I can live in for a few weeks. It doesn't have to be super well written, but it does have to be entertaining. I want likable characters & a found-family would be nice. I don't care what type of romance trope, but please don't spoil the trope if you suggest a book!
Series I've enjoyed include:
- zodiac academy
- throne of glass
- ACOTAR
- the mortal instruments (although I read this a long time ago – I remember enjoying it but maybe my tastes have changed since then, idk)
- harry potter of course
- the naturals (this was only four books long but I enjoyed it very much)

The books aren’t huge, but there’s 5+1 of them. Some of my favorite characters and chemistry, is from the Memoirs of Lady Trent, by Marie Brennan.
They’re not typical fantasy, they’re essentially about a Victorian wannabe dragon scientist, and they’re just so charmingly written.
A Song of Ice And Fire.
The Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan
From Blood & Ash by Jennifer L. Armentrout
The Long Way to a Small, Angry Planet by Becky Chambers
The Invisible Library by Genevieve Cogman
Every Heart a Doorway by Seanan McGuire

The Drizzt Saga is up to over 30 books now. It was originally published in sets of 3 or 5 so there are plenty of break points. It’s light, full of action and has a found family. There is little romance.
