I went back to the old video to make sure you didn’t recommend it there but you HAVE to read The Daughter of Smoke and Bone. Angel romance and the romance is a very big part of the plot.
Thoughts on Tomes I KEEP FORGETTING THATS AN ANGEL ROMANCE. And Laini Taylor intimidates me for some reason 😂 I do own that, so I’ll try to get to it soon!!
I was just thinking about this yesterday, the only fantasy books I ever liked was the shadow hunters books. I feel like with fantasy I need a strong romance, looks of time between the h & H and some great love scene😂😂 with interesting characters and story line
i agree. for someone who is massive hopeless romantic who is in love with the idea of being in love. i cant read a book that doesn't have romance in it.
Just a little suggestion from personal experience. If you're looking forward to reading The cruel prince ( folk of air series). Do not put your entire focus only on romance and their enemies to lovers relationship. I did this and somehow felt like there was a lack of connection between the two of them. Maybe I should have focused more on the plots instead but since most booktokers were recommending it as enemies/lovers I somehow didn't thoroughly enjoy it. Again personal opinion ; enjoy the plots more instead of waiting for their enemies/lovers relation
omg you should read the six of crows duology by Leigh Bardugo. The romances are subplots for sure, but there's three different ships that are adorable! My personal favorite ship (Kaz and Inej), I literally think about these two every day! SO beautiful omg
Uprooted by Naomi Novak is sooo good! I highly recommend the audiobook instead of the physical book. The romance is only a small part but its so swoony you'll hang off every little breadcrumb. Its so worth it!
I tend to read more fantasy without Romance but I have been wanting to pick up more romance books so I think some of these fantasy/romance books may be good ones to try out for me! Ember in the AShes is one that I have been wanting to pick up for a while now anyway, so that is great. The romance in Mistborn is actually one of my favorites because it is just so well done and it gets even better in book 2 and 3.
@@janette499 oh yes, soooo true!! it’s just so sad what happened to him and how everyone just not gave a shit about him. Idk, my heart broke even though I’m def team rhys :/
Her throne of glass series was one of the first book collections i read and basically caused me to become a reader. Sarah Maas creates her world in the same way i do and i love it
I don’t know if you’ve read it but if you liked a ‘curse so dark and lonely’ you will like ‘a court of thrones and roses’ it’s also a beauty and the beast, it’s kinda dark especially at the end but it sooo good it’s by Sarah J. Maas and if you like that crescent city book you will love this
A lot of people did not like A Heart so Fierce And Broken but I LOVED IT!! Excited for you to read it and see your thoughts!! I loved loved loved Sorcery Of Thorns too, I wish so badly it was a series CAUSE I NEEDED MORE 😭😭
Nalini Sing's book series are so good. Love the psy-changeling series as well as the angel one. I recently read Suzanne Wright's phoenix pack series (as well as all the spin offs) as well as the demon series. Loved them. The demon series is just amazing.
Not sure if anyone has recommended yet, but pretty much any Ilona Andrews. The hidden legacy series is a slow burn, action packed romance fantasy. They tend to do Alpha male romances, but the female main characters are so strong and independent that they make a good match. Definitely try them!
I never hear anyone talking about Sherrilyn Kenyon. She writes urban fantasy and paranormal romance. I’ve never read any paranormal anything.lol but do have one of this authors box set of romances to tackle soon. Will look into your recommendations. ‘Tfs
It’s so good... I only slept 2 hours yesterday because I couldn’t lay it down... On the 20th of April the third book comes out. It’s the last one....😭 And just by the way, there are thousands of books you can also hear at RU-vid as audiobook. The Blood and Ash series, the Cruel Prince series, Crescent City, The Court of roses series etc. It’s amazing...😂❤️
The collector's society by heather Lyons , it's actually a series and has 4 books. It's a retelling kinda. Romance being a plot. It's so good. I really liked it.
A really good "Angel Book" is Hush, Hush written by Becca Fitzpatrick! There are multiple books in the series and it also includes romance, you might want to check it out :)
Besides Elizabeth Hunter's Elemental Mysteries series...love it. "No secret stays hidden forever. A phone call from an old friend sets mysterious book researcher Giovanni Vecchio back on the path of a mystery that has eluded him for centuries. Little does he suspect a young librarian holds the key to an ancient secret, nor could he expect the danger Beatrice De Novo would attract. Now both will follow a twisted maze leading from the archives of a university library, through the fires of Renaissance Florence, and toward a passion that could destroy them both.” I love Karen Marie Moning's Fire Series. Love how Mac changes through the books in this Human/Fae/Immortals world. "In the blockbuster Fever series, Karen Marie Moning creates a darkly erotic and paranormal world, torn apart by the struggle between humans and Fae. Now in a convenient eBook bundle, here are the five thrillingly sexy novels featuring heroine MacKayla Lane: Darkfever, Bloodfever, Faefever, Dreamfever, and Shadowfever. If you like BDB....try The Protectors by Theresa Gabelman. More PNR not Fantasy but good! Marie Treanor's Am Awakened by Blood series (3 books) Blood on Silk, Blood on Sin & Blood Eternal. It is really good. "Elizabeth Silk is writing her doctoral thesis on vampires myths and travels Romania for research. When her blood awakens Salomen she is both frightened and attracted to him. A centuries old vampire, Salomen was slain by betrayal (his lover) and buried for over 300 years." Elizabeth Hunter's "Irin Chronicles (7 book series) Kindle Edition. From Book 1: Breathtaking romantic fantasy by USA Today Bestseller, Elizabeth Hunter, author of the Elemental Mysteries. Hidden at the crossroads of the world, an ancient race battles to protect humanity, even as it dies from within. Ava Matheson came to Istanbul looking for answers, but others came looking for her. A reckless warrior guards her steps, but will Malachi’s own past blind him to the truth of who Ava might be? While ancient forces gather around them, both Ava and Malachi search for answers. Whispering voices. Deadly touch. Their passion should be impossible… or it could be the only thing keeping them alive."
Subscribed! Rigt away after seeing that Angels Blood😭 its reallllyyyt good!!!!!!! And not many people read it. Youre totallg right I'm sucker for angels story.
I was literally on the hunt for a fantasy/paranormal romance read this morning. I have Angels' Blood sitting on my bookshelf right now actually but I'm struggling a bit to get into it. I was a huge fan of the Women of The Otherworld series by Kelley Armstrong in high school. It's a 13 book paranormal romance series with a few tie-in anthologies. The first two books are about werewolves, but later books have witches, necromancers, half-demons, and more! If you haven't checked it out, I would highly recommend it! The first two books weren't my favourite because I wasn't as in love with the main couple, but the couples rotate throughout the series, and there are pairing in this series that I absolutely ADORE and would consider my favourites of all time!
@@katyareads221 I wanna give it a chance, since I've read series before where it takes a book or two to get into it. I think I'm not so much one to love the Alpha Male love interest archetype, so maybe that's why it's not clicking. But I'd like to finish it anyway.
@@ainsleemcnamara7514 you are so right. Often I've read book 1, found it lacking and really got excited in the next book. I think it was the writing style for me. I've tried other books by the author and did not care for them. She is much beloved by many readers and it might just be me.
Women of the Otherworld is one of my absolute favorites! I also don’t love the first few, but Dime Store Magic may be my favorite urban fantasy book ever.
Ive been so busy working at the hospital recently I have forgotten about books and doing things I actually enjoy haha. After watching this video I have picked up a couple of these books! Time to start reading again. Starting with A court of thorns and roses (I know shame on me for not reading it already). Keep up the great content. Subscribed!
The Premonition series by Amy A Bartol was a great angel series I read several years ago! I haven’t read it recently but I do remember flying through it.
This definitely such a great list of recommendations. I loved the romance in Mistborn as well. You've made me excited for some other titles like Serpent and Dove.
OMG! All of the books you've recommended were on my TBR 😅 except Angel's Blood. I was not so sure wether I am gonna read them at first, but now that you recommended it I am definitely going to give it a try 😃. I can't live without a romance in a book. Thank you soo much! Love your channel.
As a suggestion for the question with angel books you should read the fallen searie. I fell in love with it from the first book and it gets more intressing from book to book!
This is the video I've been waiting for! I love fantasy and don't often mind when it doesn't have a romance but I've been craving it recently! I had to skip over Mistborn because I've just started it and was actually disappointed that the wasn't a romance so this has given me hope! Great video 😊
I'm the same way! I have to have at least a little bit of romance (preferably angst) in order to like the book. I've started and DNF'ed books that other people love just because I feel like it's slow and they don't keep my attention.
@@PeaceLoveBooksxo Yes! If you enjoy some fantasy, politics and very angsty, slow burn, haters to lovers romance, you'll really enjoy it! I love Arin and Kestrel's story! Still one of my favorites ❤💕
You should give Sharon Shinn a try-- she's writes Fantasy and Sci-Fi, but all her books have a strong romance subplot. She has a bunch of series you might like: Samaria series: about genetically engineered angels and their evolving position in a human colony on another planet. First book: Archangel Twelve Houses series: second world fantasy about a band of travelers/secret agents fighting for the political rights of people with magical abilities. First book: Mystic and Rider Elemental Blessings series: second world fantasy with elemental magic, a messed-up royal family, and a remarkably beautiful religious system. First book: Troubled Waters
I understand the feeling with Mistborn. It was something I couldn´t read in a single day, because it was high fantasy and not the kind of fun and light book I usually read. I take my time reading it, but it´s definitely my favourite fantasy series. it´s a book you don´t forget after reading it. I hope you end up reading the other books and you enjoy it too! ❤️
you should definitely read Stolen Songbird by Danielle L Jensen! it's another beauty and the beast retelling and the world is so fascinating and the romance was also *chef's kiss* 😍
We have pretty similar taste in books so because I loved it I highly recommend The Winter King by C L Wilson (if you haven't read it) - it's adult fantasy romance so you can expect some steamy scenes. Even though it was pretty long I flew through it because I adored the romance :)
PeaceLoveBooksxo I actually listened to the audio so it was a breeze to get through, so I’m not sure... There are different POVs (three main ones) and I’ve heard that that was a struggle for some since the book wouldn’t tell you whose POV you were on. If you do pick it up I hope it’s easy and the writing up to your taste because it’s a book I adore!
Angel's Blood is an UF, so kind of yes, also PNR, but most UF are paranormal. If it's a 'real world' kind of thing with paranormal elements where it's known (somewhat anyway) or a society that has completely changed after the reveal of supernatural beings, or something to that effect, it's an Urban Fantasy, if the world doesn't know about the supes, then it's paranormal, if it's set in a fantasy world that doesn't have our technology or anything like that it's just fantasy (sometimes with paranormal elements). But yeah, so as an example, the Lux series by Jennifer L. Armentrout? Started out as a paranormal, but by the end of the series the cat is out of the bag (that's the idiom, right?) so it became an UF. The Shadowhunter books are also UF because they have a set governing system in place, even though mortals aren't aware of it, at least that's how I see it and have seen many others categorise as.
I really liked the romance in Angelfall by Susan Ee, the Penryn and the End of Days series. It's all about angels, obviously, but I found the romance to be quite swoony 😍 I also really loved The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson......good romance there as well!!!
Her Elemental Mysteries and Elemental World Series is also good....a vampire series....female protag is a librarian...love this author. The book covers are beautiful and the stories even more. Book 3 "Force of Wind" has a scene that not only made me cry but sobbed. I had to take a break after this series.
Not really an angel romance but a different spin on the fantasy romance is The Brightest Kind of Darkness series by PT Michele. Awesome series! Also the Lux series by Jennifer Armentrout also phenomenal. Obsidian is the first book in the series. I've recently discovered your videos and am just amazed by all the recommendations here! Thank you!
I love romance in fantasy too, but I also just love fantasy so I loved Mistborn /despite/ the romance actually lol I was yelling at her the whole time “girl you best not compromise the revolution because you have a crush!” But also I highly recommend Angelfall if you love angel romances lol I was obsessed with that one. It’s also cool as a dystopian. I haven’t read the others you talked about but I’ll be checking them out!
Do you know the Fallen series? I only watched the movie but just ordered the books. It is a Angel romance kind of thing too. There is heaven and hell and the world between. Daniel is the main character and a fallen angel. He wanted to love and got cursed by Lucifer to always love a girl who dies every time he kissed her and after years went by, she is born again and they meet again and she forgot everything about him and then everything continues but this time it’s different. You could check it out!❤️
Ohh, and if you ever want to find some book recommendations, search for a RU-vid video about those and watch the videos while scrolling down the comments! This will bring you biiiiigggg success!🤩😂❤️
First, thank you for all your videos. For YA I was thinking of vampire academy and other series from Rachelle mead but maybe some are more paranormal romance. Less famous ones you may not have heard of : the bargainer series by laura thalassa or deadly beauties by c m owens (they are others in english but I read them recently so they came to mind easily). Thank you again
Hi, I'm a little late to your videos because I've always been a sci if and fantasy reader that poopoo'd romance, but in this world as we're currently living it, my escape has become romances. I've read 30+ romances in the past two months! I have 2 recommendations for beautiful fantasy novels that have amazing slow burn romances as part of the plot. Well, I'm sure I could come up with hundreds but two popped into my head while watching this video... 'The Oracle Glass' by Judith Merkle Riley and 'The Lions of Al-Rassan' by Guy Gavriel Kay. I want to thank you for all your romance recommendations! They've been a godsend!
Okay I'm just asking cause I'm new to your channel but you have read The Throne of Glass series right? By Sarah J. Mass... just asking since you love her but have not mentioned that series in the last 2 fantasy recommendations♡♡ by far my favorite even over a Court of Thorns and Roses ♡♡
Ironically enough people usually knock on Sandersons romance writing. I always enjoyed vin and elends courtship. Their relationships progression is so good. Keep reading you wont be disappointed.
If you like angel romance I recommend the premonition series by Amy A Bartol. It's older & IMO is criminally underrated. Again, I've never heard it mentioned online.
I’m not a big fantasy fan either but urban fantasy has become my go to in that genre. I’d add The Bargainer Series by Laura Thalassa, which you have mentioned in the past💕 I loved Book One, Rhapsodic and the rest of the series is available on Kindle Unlimited 👍☺️
MY FAVORITE! The Premonition Series by Amy A Bartol is so good! It's about Angels and a infatuated/stalker Fairy/Vampire who you'll end up loving! And reincarnated soulmate/best friend. It's a love square not triangle! It was written so well you won't get frustrated. It's hard not to love them all. Even the bad ones. And its on Kindle Unlimited!
