Hey ! I need some good fantasy recommendations like the cruel prince trilogy ... Also I feel like I have read all the popular ones and the good ones that are out there so anything besides shatter me, once upon a broken heart, powerless, one dark window or throne of glass would be good.

Ohhh I feel this so much — I had the exact same problem. 😅Goodreads kept showing me the same 10–20 super popular fantasy books on every list, and I felt like I’d “already read everything” too.
That’s actually why I ended up building a little website for myself where you can filter fantasy books by very specific genres and tags (fae, enemies-to-lovers, no romance, etc.) and also hide books you’ve already read.
It’s still pretty new so it doesn’t have tons of books and users yet, but I'm hoping I can get some users on it so it can eventually have all the books and make all of our lives easier.

I like the Lux and Origins series and the Dark Elements and Harbinger series by Jennifer L Armentrout. all four are YA Paranormal Romance.I also liked Unwind by Neal Shusterman. it's a dystopian fiction series
I also liked Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth. I enjoyed the world building and the character arcs
I totally love the Red Queen series as well!
I also agree that the Unwind series is one of the best, but it is not like The Cruel Prince. Still worth the read though!!!!!

Sorry for anyone who saw the other three or four comments, whoever wrote the book they were recommending set up a bunch of different profiles to spam groups. Hopefully I have removed them all.
You can try The Young Elites by Marie Lu , Shadow and Bone Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo, and Six of Crows. also by Leigh Bardugo
Hero - Journey To The EastIn a world ravaged by chaos, a teenager named Hero embarks on a perilous quest to reach the fabled Eden in the Far East - a place rumoured to be the last safe haven in a broken world.

hi!!I definitly recomend the whole grishaverse by leight bardugo too.
I got hooked to the series by the very begining. It is devided by a triology and two duologies: the shadow and bown triology, the six of crows duology and the king of scars duology. I am pretty sure that you will love all of them. And in case you haven't read the empirian series (fourth wing). i don't what are you waiting for!!!! For me the empirian series was the best one I have read this year. And if you decide to read it, please don't bother updating me about your read (don't worry about spoiling anything)!!
I haven't read too much fantasy but one I would recommend would be the Falling Kingdoms series by Morgan Rhodes if you like having larger worlds and many different character POVs. There's six main books and a few add on series that go with it.
Definitely recommend immortal consequences by I.V Marie!! It’s fantasy with sub plot of romance with different characters. There are six different povs though so it may be harder to grasp for some people.
The Will of the Many by James Islington Definitely Fantasy series with hint of romance not Romantacy but excellent imo.Wild Reverence series by Rebecca Ross
The Queen of the Tearling series by Erika Johansen
you might enjoy the selection it is similar to the books you listed :)https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
Cruel prince is one of my absolute favs! I really enjoyed An Ember in the Ashes series by Sabaa Tahir recently.
Hello! My series would be great as a recommendation. It’s called The Music Man. It’s a Sci-Fi/Fantasy series. The story follows a runaway teen named Jimmy who meets a pianist. They play the man’s piano and are then transported to an alternate dimension! If you click on my profile, you can see the reviews for my series. The series is available on Amazon and Audible. Cheers!

I’m starting a new project for ELA this month. I need a fiction book to make a mood board on. I LOVE romance, thriller, and fantasy. Sooo really anything, but it has to have romance in it somewhere. I also want it to be very aesthetic book to have fun pictures for. I was thinking Lynn painter…? But lmk if anyone has anything better. I can’t do BTTM or NLTM since I’ve already read it!
I need Recs So I love ya romantasy but I don’t like sci-fi
Love books like powerless caraval
I I love fairy tale retelling
I read the whole Shatter Me series around a year ago and recommend it to everyone.My favourite in the series is Defy Me- it has the best Kenji moments, absolutely heartbreaking scenes and I think about it every day.
I’m currently reading Powerless but would love some recommendations if anyone has any! I read lots of different genres my favourites being, ‘Romantasy’ , ‘thriller/ psychological thriller’.
Thank you so much!
Kenji supremacy. 🫡
What if your 5-year-old child started remembering his own future?If you love mind-bending thrillers like Blake Crouch’s Dark Matter, you need to read "The Burden of Knowledge". It’s a haunting exploration of destiny and the terrifying weight of knowing the consequences of your choices before you even make them.
