Loony | 3 comments I wanna read a fantsy novel. I want a likeable female lead. But I dont want her tu be stupid but I also dont want her to be really stubborn like I dont need a man crap. I want a lead that know when she can handle stuff on her own and when the asks for help when she needs it.
Their age doesnt matter. I can read highschool stuff or grown up stuff. Doesnt matter.
I also dont want to male lead to be cruel to famale lead. When I read books that ml treats fl like an a** the whole book and in the end when we learn that he had a troumatic past fl forgive everything. Aaaggghhh I am mad as hell and i usually stop reading. He can be like the villan, he can be rival, he can be friend, he can be idk bad but when he is downright cruel to ppl just for the kick of it and then forgiven after learning their past I am done with that book.

I read a lot of fantasy books. So you can suggest a couple of series.

Gillian Wiseman (gillianwiseman) | 241 comments I love the Penric’s DemonPenric and Desdemona novellas by Lois Bujold. Technically the main character is male, but Desdemona becomes more and more vocal in the series as it goes on.
Naomi Novik's Scholomance series A Deadly Education is really good, too.

Julia Tilson (juliatilson) | 10 comments Scorched by Mari Mancusi was really good; it's like Eragon meets Terminator but with a female lead.

Laray | 46 comments Any of the Magiford books by K. M. Shea (urban fantacy).
Melanie Cellier also writes likable, smart female characters. Haven't found one of her books I didn't like and I've read most of them.
