Book Recs to help reading slump…

Hello

I’ve just finished light wielder and it was a slog!! Terrible book - such a shame as I like metal slinger a lot. But this book has taken me three whole weeks to read and I NEED my next read to be captivating or I’ll go into a full slump.

I don’t mind a standalone or a series

My top fave books of the past year are the knight and the moth, road of bones series and the ballad of falling dragons.

I love strong world building. I’m a bit tired of enemies to lovers tropes unless it’s a particularly good one.

I don’t really read Romantasy for the spice so I don’t care about spice rating but I do love me some yearning and slow build romance. I care more about the character plot and world building than the romance. I often guess twists and reveals so I’m interested in books where people really didn’t see the twist coming.

I’m interested in books that are popular so I’ve got spaces to discuss them rather than books no ones heard of.

I’ve not asked for book rec on here before so thanks so much in advance for your help!!

Does the whining in the live action audiobooks get better?

I’m loving the live action audiobooks I really am and most of the characters are great.

I’ve just finished book five and found it was grating on me by the end and I just want a heads up as to if it continues. In book five Harry is of course very distressed and angry a lot of time, that’s fine, but the actor plays Harry as very whiny and angry. Even when he is supposed to be fraught with grief and outrage at the end he just sounds like he’s being mardy. The actor seemed to only know one way to play “angry”, which made it just constantly whine whine whine 🤣

I’ve read the books so so many times and I’ve never disliked Harry, but for the first time I thought gosh he’s a bit insufferable. Hermonie was whiny too.

Anyway the reason I care to know is because it kept taking me out of the story. So I just want to know if this continues or gets better?

Thanks!
