[madelyn:)]

ive been seeing a lot more hype about fantasy books (not that there wasn't already a lot before, but it's been surrounding me a lot more). i want to try them but it's hard for me to get into it. (i have a tendency to abandon books i dont like lol) any tips for getting into the genre?

For me i just have a open mind, think of all the possibilities that could be

Probably start with something fast-paced but not confusing when it comes to stuff like Fae and maybe pick a trope u like i would recommend throne of glass but idk

I would say pick something that doesn’t have a ton of books in the series. Some of those get very in depth and can be confusing. I would also go for something you like mixed in. So if you also like romance then find out some good romantasy books.

What about the fantasy genre excites you? Action? Romance?

For a light start into the genre, I would recommend YA. Here are some books on my tbr: Narnia, Percy Jackson, HP, Caster Chronicles, Vampire Academy, The Inheritance Cycle. All of them have at least one existing movie and maybe a show. So if you‘re unsure about the book, you could watch these first and get a general idea.

I think a good way to start is picking something fast-paced, not too long and possibly not part of a huge series! Also, maybe starting with urban fantasy or maybe something dystopian could help a little because you don't have to get into a complicated world building with a lot of details, politics and stuff like that. I would start with ya, so something like Shadowhunters, Hunger Games, Divergent.
