Other books and topics to include

I don't want to overwhelm a new project, but if anyone else is wondering "what other books and series might we want to include in this project?" here's some links for investigating:

• Goodreads "Romantasy Readers" group -- see what people are discussing in here
• Rec lists -- here's a "professional" publication on bookriot, you can probably find fannish ones on various social media. I think both could be useful for finding series worth discussing
• tumblr tag??? tbh this one seem less useful, there's a lot of writing prompt/oc games/tagging fannish stuff for oth fandoms (like Baldurs Gate Three), but one thing I'm getting from it is we should probably include Fourth Wing in this project :P
• (frankly I would expect other social media to be more useful -- especially Booktok, Instragram book stuff, maybe Booktube???-- but I don't have accounts for those)

Anyways if this is too much, feel free to ignore it, I was mostly just curious "how are fans using this term, what books are they including in that group" and here's some stuff I turned up in my (very brief) research! -- Quaelegit (talk) 00:44, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Oh man this tumblr post includes Uprooted by Naomi Novik... I guess... not wrong?????? But it feels wrong. Idk guys. -- Quaelegit (talk) 09:41, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

• Fourth Wing was on my mind too (haven't read it lol) especially when i was thinking about fandom other than my usual haunts. thank you so much for organizing everything in a way it would've taken me 500 google searches to figure out!! <3 woahpip (talk) 16:11, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
