I’ve long debated whether I should have a recommends section on here, but the truth is I found most of the authors I love from them being recommended by other authors I’d read, so I’m going to pop this here. All links lead to the author’s website, with the exception of Nikita Gill. She did not have an independent website I could find, so I’ve linked her name to her listing on fantasticfiction.com (which is one of my favorite resources for looking up series order).
