What are some of your favorite authors and books? I'd love to hear!

Hey everyone! I'm a big fan of reading and I'm always looking for new book recommendations. I really enjoy fantasy and horror, so some of my favorite authors are J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter), J.R.R. Tolkien (The Lord of the Rings), H.P. Lovecraft, and Stephen King. What are some of your favorite authors and books? I'd love to hear!

In the fantasy area
The Scholomance Series by Naomi Novik
Also Uprooted and Spinning Silver by the same author.
The Daevabad Trilogy by S.A. Chakraborty
Witch King (The Rising World, #1) by Martha Wells
The Kingkiller Chronicle Series by Patrick Rothfuss
(warning: there's been a 14 year gap after book 2 of the series. Book 3 is rumored for this fall, but we've been disappointed by similar rumors repeatedly)

Science fiction that's near fantasy
Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells
(if you liked Witch King you'll probably like Murderbot)
The Imperial Radch Trilogy by Ann Leckie
