There are books from every genre included here so no matter what you like, you’ll find something to read. If you love reading romantasy novels, then you will enjoy reading A Forbidden Alchem. Stacey McEwan, the author, also runs a popular Tik Tok account when not writing.
The novel I am most excited for on this list is The Bewitching by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. After reading Mexican Gothic by Moreno- Garcia, I became a fan and have enjoyed her other novels over the years. She is a fresh writer in the horror genre and knows how to keep readers hooked.
Conclusion
