As someone who avoids spice, I really appreciate that you explained what your rating is based off. I find most people don't do that and it negates the reason for having a spice rating to begin with.

[carissadallke]

The cruel prince feels like more traditional farie stories, like the tricksters that people fear to upset. So if you like the more faire mythology it would be good for that.

WAKE UP. THE QUEEN HAS POSTED<33 (btw this video is really for me. I need to get into more fantasy bookssss)

your spice rating is actually super helpful, especially with the way you explained it. my favorite books are either no spice or 1 and that's how i can take the most perfect recs from you ☺️

[makyandherbooks]

I'm slowly getting into my fantasy era so this video is so appreciated, thank you! 😍

[palkoeszter]

This video idea is genius and the way you formated it is so professional, congrats!

[samijo]

Thank you for posting a quick overview of what the book is about!

[b.anna_]

You should definitely do a romance books version of it!!🫶

[stuartgriffin]

Thanks for doing this video. A lot of good suggestions. Your video is a reminder that I should read my first R.F. Kuang book. Also, that I should read my first Sarah J. Maas book. In the latte case, I am somewhat imtimidated by the lengths of the books. I recently read Divine Rivals and loved it. It started Fourth Wing this morning

been trying to get back into fantasy for so long this list is amazing

[Jaka]

I feel like you could even include Babel in with the litfic/classics section because of the themes explored and the prose alone. Great recommendations!

[AbbyC_TaylorsVersion]

Lol I’ve read everyone except Acotar under the romance section, I do agree that the one part in Bride made me uncomfortable too 😭😭 but other than that it was pretty funny. I do love all of the books you mentioned

[littleschoolinthedesert]

Loved this style of video!!! Super helpful and just a lot of fun. 🥰📚 I always trust your book recs!

[GM-tudi]

Great video! I’m just starting my fantasy era…and I LOVED ❤ ACOTAR!!! Thanks for your Romantacy recommendations

[jadelee_jl]

Oohhh. Love the new spice rating. I have read most of the books on this video and your recommendations are so on point! I just started The Serpent and the Wings of Night. Hopefully it turns out to be a good one.

[clairesu]

Excited to read The Unmaking of June Farrow! Also want to try One Dark Window and Babel 😍

[juilie]

Oo fantasy book review with spice rating sounds so interesting. Looking forward for this video 😍

[michaelwang]

great list of books. I've ready a couple on the list and will add some to my TBR

[kidcurry]

divine rivals has a love scene but its not graphic. also, the later book of the false prince series has spice

[Faithful_Fork]

Jamie thank you for the spice meter
I requested it
Love you❤❤❤
