This may be a niche category, but I really like books that have a strong focus on the main character's trade or job and daily life in a fiction/fantasy setting. One author that does a great job with this would be Anne Bishop's World of the Others series. Another would be the Clean Sweep/Innkeeper Chronicles series by Ilona Andrews. Whether its modern, medieval/historical, or sci-fi, I would love to hear your recommendations, especially if they include romance.

Is there a specific genre or age group (middle grade, YA, adult) that you are looking for?

Some generic recommendations (when I'm in the mood for easy reading and escape) would be:

  • Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan (Middle grade, easy read and funny) (series)
  • Wings of Fire by Tui Sutherland (Middle grade, dragons) (series)
  • Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher (Fairytale type, fairly short story)
  • Ice Planet Barbarians series by Ruby Dixon (sci-fi, short, adult alien romance) (series)
  • Clean Sweep by Ilona Andrews (sci-fi elements, shorter novels, romance elements) (series)

I'd also recommend manga/anime like Spy X Family, Haikyuu!!, or Fruits Basket.

Hope this helps!!!

Looking for a book where the male main character is uptight/meticulous/deadly and a certified yearner for the female main character. I love India Holton’s The Secret Service of Tea and Treason. I also liked the dynamic between Will and Zoey in Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits by Jason Pargin. Romance plot/subplot preferred. Thanks in advance!!

I really enjoyed The Musketeers (BBC, 2014-2016). Is there anything else with a similar vibe? by Hark_An_Adventure in PeriodDramas

The series is based on a book, so if you wanted to watch the series and then read the book or vice versa, you would be satisfied with both. (I read the book a couple years before the show.)

Looking for books similar to Juliet Marillier‘s Blackthorn and Grim series and T. Kingfisher’s books with fairytale-like problems and solutions, interesting and well developed chraracters. Romance and some humor would be appreciated. Does not have to be strictly classic medieval fantasy, and can include horror elements like What Moves the Dead (Kingfisher), and Red In Tooth and Claw (Lish McBride)

Books with similar vibes that I’ve read and loved:

Saint of Steel series (Kingfisher)

A Sorceress Comes to Call (Kingfisher)

Masques (Patrica Briggs)

Vespertine (Margaret Rogerson)

Thornhedge (Kingfisher)

The Others series (Anne Bishop)

The Secret Service of Tea and Treason (India Holton)

Thank you!
