Fantasy
The giants behind some of the best fantasy books still loom large – nobody looks like dethroning Terry Pratchett and Philip Pullman, nor Earthsea author Ursula Le Guin, any time soon – but the popularity of the genre on TikTok has led to the emergence of new favourites, too: Erin Morgenstern’s fantastic The Night Circus and The Starless Sea; Holly Black’s Book of Night; Naomi Novik’s The Golden Enclaves; and the popularity of fantasy romance books such as K. A. Tucker’s A Fate of Wrath & Flame and its ensuing series.
