Recs if you like From Blood and Ash...

Books that are part of 3 or more quests ✨for easier planning! Initially thought of making this on my shelf, hope the members of pb find this helpful!! (The list is incomplete, I'm working on checking & adding new quest books🙌🏻 thanks for the love ❤️🥹)

"He is literally just a guy. Hit him with your car."

AKA, a selection of "book boyfriends" that actually suck. Featuring red flags ranging from an emotionally unavailable Irish lad to a man who locks up his wife in an attic.

Recommendations welcome. No judgment if you enjoy these books; this list was inspired by my own obsession with Heathcliff, toxic lover extraordinaire, as a teen.

When the love story and the world building go hand in claw. For series, only the first book is listed.

I'm sure some of these are already on your TBR, so might as well add some more! Let me know if I am missing any of your favorites!

a list of fantasy book recs free of problematic authors so you can discover without any stress of promoting them!

books that are part of 3 or more quests, for those readers with a completionist streak within and a personal plague of Too Many Books, Too Little Time.

Do you love collecting tiny shiny objects (badges)? These books will count towards THREE quests, helping you collect all the shiny objects!

Featuring morally gray men, unreliable narrators, emotional damage, dragons, serial killers, fake dating, enemies-to-lovers, and at least 47 books someone claimed “changed their life.” Proceed with caution.

High stakes, stressful fantasy books that will have you pulling at your hair and biting your nails most of the time. In summary: the very opposite of cozy fantasy. Open for recs!

DISCLAIMER: I haven't read some of these books, so do let me know if a book is unfit for this list!

Ever felt overwhelmed by Quests? Well, we currently (August 1st 2026) have over 100 of them, totaling 4000+ different books. Ofc you’re overwhelmed.

Whether you’ve already worked through the ones on top, or just want more of a challenge, here I’m giving you a list of every book on Pagebound that’s in 3 Quests. Hopefully you’ll find it helpful. NB: Time limited Quests not included. Too much upkeep, sorry.

Enjoy, and happy questing

Full Reading Order of JLAs Blood & Ash and Flesh & Fire Series

✨ This is just my recommended (spoiler free) order, you can obv read each series on its own!

The fate of the world rests on this teenage girl's shoulders. She isn't like the other girls—she was chosen by prophecy, fate, or narrative convenience to save a realm that absolutely refuses to handle its own problems.

Some debts don't clear at death. Some loves don't end with a body. Some enemies are patient enough to wait for your next life. 💀 These books take the premise literally - the soul has a history, and that history is not done with you. Whether you're born again into the same war, haunted by a love you can't name but somehow recognize, or hunted by something ancient that has been counting the lives between then and now, the past in these novels is not past. ‼️

bodyguards, knights & royal guards

where each narrator voices their own character(s) throughout the entire book, not just when it’s ‘their’ chapter

Romantasy books my favorite Toks are reading...both mainstream and indie

The goal: to have the most comprehensive complete list of vampire books, fiction and otherwise, in the world. Then? I’ll read them all.

Please send recs <3

Give me more badass FMCs who don’t wait for someone else to save the day!! Quick with a blade, quicker with a comeback, these bad b*tches take on monsters, villains, and terrible life choices with equal ferocity. If you’re looking for women who break rules, break hearts, and occasionally break a few bones, this is the ultimate list for you.
