Welcome.
If you like fantasy I would recommend The Shades of Magic by V.E. Schwab, it’s 3 books and has a wonderful way of pulling you in. Also We Are Voulhire by Matthew Tysz, I haven’t finished the series but the first 2 books are excellent. Hope this helps.
I’m unable to offer assistance with horror.

Shades of Magic is a beautiful series! Prosper's Demon is also a book that is somewhat dark fantasy, and its one I loved.

If you enjoy Fantasy/Dystopian, you would enjoy Keepers Of The Lost City! It has very immersive characters! It has a very fairytale-like feeling but reveals a dark side later on!

For fantasy, I recommend Sabriel by Garth Nix, my favorite book. It's about a necromancer, but instead of trying to raise the dead, she tries to stop the dead from coming back to life. It's the first book in a series, but can definitely stand alone.

I'm not that into fantasy, but my partner's really enjoying Erin Morgenstern's work at the moment - her novels are called The Night Circus and The Starless Sea. Less high-fantasy with dragons and stuff, more close-to-the-ground magic; The Night Circus is centred around a magical carnival, The Starless Sea involves a mysterious library and a secret underground world.

Yes! My husband has this trilogy in one volume and I think between the two of us we have read it to death. We definitely need a new copy soon and I recommend it as well.

I'm not normally a fan of fantasy. However, one book that I have gone to several times in the past number of years is The Neverending Story by Michael Ende. No matter how many times I read it, I find that I'm so caught up in the story that it's always a question of whether I'm reading this in a book, or if it's really happening to me. When I'm almost to the end I find myself not sure as to whether I should speed up to see what happens next, or to slow down so as to make the story linger.

Strange the Dreamer duology is a good fantasy book. One of my favorite. It has a compelling storyline and complex characters and the writing was immensely beautiful.

I think a good fantasy book would be Fire Bringer by David Clement-Davies. It's about a deer of a prophecy who saves his forest from a tyrant. It probably sounds like a little kid story but it's quite dark. I actually really love the villain. Admittedly, he's my favorite character despite the terrible things he does. I think that just means the author did his job well. In fact, I recommend his other books too. Hope this helps! Happy reading!

Hello! I am new here, too. So far I have reviewed 3 books. My first one is romance entitled, Noah by Gary Hope. It is a great book, if you also like a little bit of romance you can try this.

These are my top fantasy series:
The Daevabad trilogy by S. A. Chakraborty
Foolish Kingdoms series by Natalia Jaster
Kingmaker Chronicles by Amanda Bouchet
Daughters of Eville series by Chanda Hahn
Tainted Accords series by Kelly St. Clare
Desert Nights series by Helena Rookwood and Elm Vince
Poison Study series by Maria V. Snyder
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
All these series gave me a terrible book hangover and I cried after I finished them.

Verity by Colleen Hoover was like discovering a rare gem. It's morbid and fascinating, genius and tragic all at once.
This suspense, thriller, drama is centred around Verity, a successful Crime/Horror author who suffers dire injuries after surviving a car accident.
A struggling co-author is appointed and invited into the home of the author. She enters into a house of horrors that makes her question her sanity and brings her worst fear to life.
