Suggest your favorites (preferably series, to keep me busy 😅) I have such a hard time staying interested in a book lately, it’s like I read all the ones I’ll ever be interested in. I’m probably more picky than I sound like. I only read books where the lead is a woman and while I like some YA books (which is most of fantasy and science fiction genre unfortunately) I HATE ones that act like 16 year olds. I also do not like any of the Sarah Maas books. LOL or fourth wing or any of those big books that get a lot of wrap. I’m sure they are good to others but they just not my cup of tea(I tried to read them), I’m not bashing the authors.
