Reviews and Comments
I generally only read fiction, mostly fantasy and sci-fi (or, ideally, a mix of the two). I also really enjoy horror in other media, but for some reason, horror books just never struck a chord for me.
My favorite series are probably Stormlight Archive (I know, what a hot-take), Lightbringer, and The Broken Earth.
