So I've given most of these a shot by now, but it takes more than one chapter (many more) to get me invested in anything. I have a general dislike for the beginning of any story, I prefer the meat in the middle.

That said, I have refined my requirements for a new book:

• Fantasy world (or at least heavy fantastical elements)
• Third person (I despise first person narratives)
• Hard magic system (i.e. magic with defined rules and explanations)
• Good action scenes (gotta have a healthy dose of violence to get me through)
• And the aforementioned good worldbuilding and characters (I enjoy multiple viewpoints as well)

Some of the recommended titles probably hit these requirements already, and I will certainly continue trying to read the ones that seem on point. Wasn't determined before if I needed a fantasy type world or not, but some of these are set in our universe and it just doesn't appeal to me, I'm unsure why.

There's me thoughts. If there are books that you think better fit my criteria please do tell me a little about it. Otherwise I will just work my way through the ones that already seem to be a match. Regardless I appreciate all of you
