Unfortunately Acotar got me back into reading. That being said, I highly recommend reading a young adult series as your first one back. An Ember in the Ashes is a great one!

Goodreads, Storygraph, and Fable are all good for different reasons!

Same here, booktok romantasy is a good starting spot bc it’s easy to read and addicting. Ya is also good for the same reasons. From there you can branch out to different genres and more complex story telling.

I recommend Libby for borrowing books that you can read on your phone! You just need an active library card

my friend knew I love fantasy but holy hell I cannot stand most romantasy books 😭 no shade to the enjoyers but they always seem way to contrived to me and I end up laughing at them
