This is an utterly charming and absolutely delightful slow-burn romantasy, featuring a bumbling beta hero, a strong heroine, and an enemies-to-lovers romance that is sweet with heat. Romantasy readers will love this one.

Darkshire makes his fiction debut with this humorous fantasy novel that every library needs.

Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins is the top holds title of the week. LibraryReads and Library Journal offer read-alikes for patrons waiting to read this buzziest book.

Kelley’s debut might draw comparisons to Guillermo del Toro’s The Shape of Water, but this powerfully queer story will stand tall in its own right on any shelf.

Yang’s emotion-laden novella will be a hit with fans of dragons and slow-burn romantasy.

A relentless and beautifully balanced romantasy/legal thriller, offering blood and hope in equal measures. Recommended for fans of any of the genres it borrows from.

Readers can’t get enough of romantasy, so stock the shelves with these binge-worthy genre blends.

The morally gray, villainous characters in these stories are sure to find their way into readers’ hearts. 

Mary’s story is a dangerous and delightful adventure that turns the bigotry and misogyny of Victorian England on its head as she takes charge of her own life and rescues everyone with the help of her friends. Highly recommended for readers caught up in the recent trend of feminist retellings of well-known tales.
