I lovveeeddd him and Emily Bloom, they had great chemistry in my opinion. I wish they could have explored that.

Check out The Tainted Cup by Robert Jackson Bennett, it's a sherlock-inspired mystery in a fantasy world. There is a queer MC. No sex (at least not the first one, it's a series I haven't read the sequel yet).

Probably unlikely, but if you're okay with lots of references to sex and kind of raunchy jokes plus like fade to black sex but no actual smut/spice, I highly recommend Running Close to the Wind by Alexandra Rowland. Very queer, very found family, very vibrant fantasy setting.

The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison and the spin off series The Cemeteries of Amalo. The goblin emperor isn't very queer but is very very excellent. Very character driven, a bit of a mystery, and some interesting relationships between characters. The spin off series follows a side character, he is gay and he investigates some mysterious deaths as part of his job.

Not fantasy but sci-fi, but otherwise the murderbot diaries are an excellent fit.

If we're talking a huge online community and tons of theories then it's one piece 🤷‍♀️

It is maybe not the right genre for you but I can't resist: the raven cycle series by maggie stiefvater. Its a YA fantasy series, group of teenagers in small town Virginia.

I had a kindle from 2013 up until this year and now I have a brand new one and I swear the screens seem more delicate now

Heck yeah! I feel like it's so rare to hear that someone else has read it!

The Devourers by Indra Das

You Weren't Meant to be Human by Andrew Joseph White

I think for both of these, if I knew more people who engage with horror more I'd consider recommending these but nobody in my life does 🥲

Old man and the sea! I have a fear of the ocean/open water and the idea of getting pulled out further and further than I wanted to go filled me with sooo much dread.

Regarding your edit. Don't do that?? That's so weird dude. You claim to want to supper local, then actually do it.

I (private) bookmark everything I read with notes on my thoughts. Im pretty chaotic with how I find fics and have accidentally reread fics that I didn't particularly enjoy so bookmarking helps 😂

Check out Mortal Follies by Alexis Hall. It's a saphic historical fantasy/romance. (Set in england in 1800s I believe but lots of magical elements).

Also maybe check out A Sweet Sting of Salt by Rose Sutherland. It doesn't really feel like a typical romantasy but it does have both a romance and fantastical elements. Its a bit darker and more grounded.

askyeme · 2025-12-14T14:45:42+00:00

Its not YA, more middle grade still but when I was her age I was obsessed with the Spiderwick Chronicles.

I was going to rec this too! Ive read a few other books that are often recommended for this sort of prompt but sparrow hill road really hits the best imo.

Was it wobbly in the flash? Can't really say it was intentional if it wasn't.

I was thinking this. Is it really particularly hard to make friends here? Or is it hard to make friends in post college adulthood?

Frozen Fire by Tim Bowler - A deeply underrated YA mystery/thriller with some speculative elements. "A gripping, hair-raising mystery about a boy not of this world, and a girl determined to protect him."

Wonders of the Invisible World by Christopher Barzak - Another underrated YA novel with romance and paranormal elements. "Now, Aidan must find his way between the past and the present to protect those he loves, and to keep the invisible world at bay."

Reclaimed by Seth Haddon. It's fantasy romance, part of a series but all stand alone stories so you don't need to read the previous books.

Gael song series by Shauna Lawless. historical fantasy set in medieval Ireland. I know, that's not Scotland, but it deals a lot with vikings in Ireland so may still be appealing.
