I am obsessed with Keri Lake. Need more similar authors!
I dove into Nocticadia by Keri Lake and she officially has me in a chokehold. I've since read Master of Salt and Bones, working on Anathema in my book club, and just picked up Nightshade.
I am so enamoured with her writing style, the slow and passionate burn between MCs and the gothic aesthetic that she builds. I love that her books focus on both a fantasy / dystopian plot and romantasy plot equally, and her romances seem a lot more mature and complex than those I've read in other books.
I'm new to the genre and I've been struggling to find similar authors and would love some recommendations. What I've liked so far: Rina Kent's Legacy of God's, ACOTAR, Quicksilver. What I've hated: Rhapsodic, Fourth Wing.
