About my libraryWell... still working on adding titles to get everything in here, but my library consists of mostly fantasy, with a few science fiction titles, and some really exceptional historical fiction novels sprinkled in. Most of the books I've tagged as favorites are strongly character-driven. I don't mind a good dose of action or adventure, but I also like to have an emotional connection with the characters.

Hi :)

Looks like we have a reading taste in common. I, too, look for character-driven stories. Looking through your library, it looks like you might like Sarah Zettel if you haven't come across her already. She has a Camelot series (but not the traditional story of Arthur or Merlin, focuses on strong female characters), and a portal series called 'The Isavalta' series. Definitely recommend her to you!

Cheers

I love what you wrote about having an emotional connection to the characters. I'm going to take a look at your favorites to see what you recommend. Feel free to take a look at the books I've listed. I'm pretty sure you'd enjoy most of them.
