Just like the regency-era list, this is for books with faeries set in the Victorian-era (and Edwardian, because there aren't enough of those for it to be its own list). As always, open to recommendations!

I am reading the Emily Wilde series right now (on book 3) and they have been absolutely delightful! Adventure focused with a dash of romance. And an autistic coded FMC which I find really fun to read.
Oh yes, I absolutely adore this series. Emily is painfully relatable sometimes đ
I highly recommend checking out The Faerie Hounds of York by Arden Powell!! Beautifully written book.
Yes I've been interested in reading this one! I looked it up and its blurb says it's set in 1810 so I've added it to my regency faeries list :)
Yippee!!
Omg this is such a cool list; I had just recently vented to a friend that I wished there were books set in the past but with âšmagicâš and now I find this list đ I already have the Emily Wilde series on my TBR but the other books definitely look sooooo good too! đ€©
Thanks! Historical fiction with fantasy elements is one of my favourite subgenres, and I have a more expansive list if you'd like to check it out! And I hope you enjoy the Emily Wilde series, it's one of my favourites.
Thank you! đ And I just checked out your other lists, they are sooo amazing; so many new books for me to discover that I didnât know about before đ€©đ„°
Thanks! I'm glad they've helped you find some interesting books!
