Hey guys! I need some good book recommendations! The genres I like ar mainly dystopian, fantasy, or anything fiction, and a rival to romance kind of book!
I have finished reading Divergent, and A Study in Drowning and I loved both of those. The hunger games is another favorite of mine!

twilight is a good romance book, and they kiss only a few times there, so basically it’s all based on feelings and mystery

A good romantasy enemies to lovers book is the dagger and the flame and for just fantasy I like the natural history of dragons series by Marie Brennan it’s written like a memoir and based in old England I think

(Did you hear Veronica Roth is creating a new Divergent duo? She says it will be set in an alternate universe where Tris doesn’t choose Dauntless)
Anyway, I loved and still adore these ones!

- Pulse by Patrick Carman (Trio set)
- Maze Runner by James Dashner (Trio set plus prequels and sequels)
- The 5th Wave by Rick Yancy (Novel)
- The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken (Trio set + three novellas)
Romantic SciFi (I know you didn’t mention SciFi, but I think you would like this one!)
- The Renegades by Marissa Meyer (Trio set) Superpowers, heroes & villains, complicated rivals to romance
Fantasy - Sweet romance and no spice, still utterly amazing and filled with yearning
(All the books listed by Leigh Bardugo are set in the same universe)
- Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo (Duo set with a novella coming June 30th 2026)
- Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo (Trio set)

- The Stolen Heir by Holly Black (Duo set)
- Defy the Night by Brigid Kemmerer (Trio set)
- Keeper of the Lost Cities by Shannon Messenger (Ten books with more coming)
Romantic or romantic-ish mystery
- The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes (Trio set + two fun extra novels)
- The Grandest Game by Jennifer Lynn Barnes (Duo with the last book coming out in July 2026, this set branches off of the events that happen at the end of the Inheritance Games)
- The Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes (Four book set with another coming out in November 2026)
Happy reading!
