The Dark Tower series by Stephen King, dark fantasy
This is my all-time favorite book series! It may become a TV series on Amazon Prime and there is talk that King may be adding another book to the set!
“Set in a world of ominous landscape and macabre menace, The Dark Tower series features one of Stephen Kingās most powerful creationsāThe Gunslingerāa haunting figure who embodies the qualities of the lone hero through the ages, from ancient myth to frontier Western legend. As Roland crosses a desert of damnation in a treacherous world that is a twisted image of our own, he moves ever closer to the Dark Tower of his dreamsāand nightmares.”

The Sword of Shannara Trilogy by Terry Brooks, fantasy
I read this when I was in my 20s and wanted to read it again from my current perspective. Itās a fantasy that is much like The Hobbit and LOTR books but with its own wonderful characters and storyline. There are a zillion books in this series š

One day Allanon, a stranger tells Shea that he is the heir of Shannara and the only one who can defeat the Warlock Lord with a powerful sword.

āDaughter of Fireā by Sofia Robleda, historical fiction
Iām only a couple of chapters in on this one but Iām loving it!
āFor a young woman coming of age in sixteenth-century Guatemala, safeguarding her peopleās legacy is a dangerous pursuit in a mystical, empowering, and richly imagined historical novel.
Catalina Cerrato is raised by her widowed father, Don Alonso, in 1551 Guatemala, scarcely thirty years since the Spanish invasion. A ruling member of the oppressive Spanish hierarchy, Don Alonso holds sway over the newly relegated lower class of Indigenous communities. Fiercely independent, Catalina struggles to honor her father and her late mother, a Maya noblewoman to whom Catalina made a vow that only she can preserve the lost sacred text of the Popol Vuh, the treasured and now forbidden history of the Kāiche peopleā¦ā

Black House by Stephen King and Peter Straub (Sequal to The Talisman), fantasy
“Twenty years ago, a boy named Jack Sawyer traveled to a parallel universe called the Territories to save his mother and her āTwinnerā from an agonizing death that would have brought cataclysm to the other world. Now Jack is a retired Los Angeles homicide detective living in the nearly nonexistent hamlet of Tamarack, Wisconsin. He has no recollection of his adventures in the Territories, and he was compelled to leave the police force when a happenstance event threatened to awaken those long suppressed and dangerous memories.
When a series of gruesome murders occur in western Wisconsin that are reminiscent of those committed several decades earlier, Jackās buddy, the local chief of police, begs Jack to help find the killer. But are these new killings merely the work of a disturbed individual, or has a mysterious and malignant force been unleashed in this quiet town? What causes Jackās inexplicable waking dreams – if that is what they are – of robinsā eggs and red feathers? As these cryptic messages becomes impossible to ignore, Jack is drawn back to the Territories and to his own hidden past.”
