Let me explain. When i was a teen i read YA fantasy a lot. Some of my favourites were an ember in the ashes, the first red queen book, and cruel prince. Most of these are romance leaning except the first one. The problem is that i want to branch out to adult fantasy but i can’t find the right books to do so… I started a song of ice and fire but felt overwhelmed and also that things didn’t move fast enough to keep me engaged? Brandon Sanderson doesn’t feel interesting to me. On the other side tho the adult (romance or not) fantasy books that lean to YA feel icky to me. I didn’t like acotar, poppy war, uprooted. Basically I’m looking for an adult fantasy book (not going on an adventure type of book) that will have something to keep me engaged with developed female characters. I don’t need romance just interesting characters and circumstances that move in a good pace.
