One of the reason why I like your video is I don't get the same books recommendation like other booktuber recommendations. Books that you mentioned was always books that I haven't heard the name. While when I watch other booktuber's video, some of them keep recommending the same book which I'm sick off. Good job regan!
I didn’t even think it was possible for a fantasy book to be under 400 pages haha! But seriously, fantasy is my favourite genre but sometimes the super long lengths and series length can be exhausting just to think about!
Just a small correction, Jude from The Cruel Prince is actually not half fae, but completely human - her half sister is half fae. That‘s kind of the whole point of Jude‘s character arc, her longing for power because she feels weak as a human among fae. :)
Yay I’m so happy to see someone talking about the Queens Poisoner! I picked it up cheap on Kindle recently and I was really surprised, I loved it! Glad to see it getting some love 💕
I was just getting ready to recommend The Emperor's Soul! It's one of my fav Sanderson books. Have you read Perfect State? It's a sanderson Sci Fi novella. I think these 2 books perfectly illustrate his depth as an author - 2 genres, both masterfully written
Book Your Imagination I think Perfect State is more set up to read as a comedy compared to some of his other sci-fi stuff, but yeah, I agree Sanderson’s short stories have just as complex world-building as his full-length novels, and in a lot of ways they’re more mind-blowing because they’re short.
@@belleah5562 I've never read Perfect State as a comedy!! Haha! Although it does have its absurdist moments. I'm going to have to re-read it again with that point of view. Thank you!!
I really appreciate your recommendation of a book shorter than 400 pages that requires you to read the 1500+ pages long trilogy that comes before it XD. Brandon is defiantly a great place to start if you want to get into adult fantasy though, and then you can move on to the 3000+ pages of SA and the rest of the Cosmere
The term "fantasy" covers a wide spectrum. For me, The Wheel of Time series is THE epitome of high fantasy...bar none. When it comes to a single volume novel, my favourite is Weaveworld, by Clive Barker. It was published in 1987, and I just loved it. I'm drawn back to reread it about once every two years. Wikipedia describes the book as dark fantasy, and it couldn't be more dissimilar to The Wheel of Time series.
I always love watching your recommendation videos! As soon as I saw the title, I hoped that An Enchantment of Ravens would make the list and I'm so glad that it did. It might be more than 400 pages, but I'm super excited about Margaret Rogerson's next novel A Sorcery of Thorns!
An Enchantment of Ravens sounds so good to me but so many people did not seem to like it. I'm glad you liked it, it makes me more excited to read it now.
A.N. Lashley I think people were disappointed because it was falsely compared to the ACOTAR series. They really have very little in common and An Enchantment of Ravens is a thoroughly entertaining story. I personally enjoyed it much more than ACOTAR a found the characters considerably more likable.
On this list I’ve only read The Cruel Prince and The Thief but I absolutely love them both so I’m thinking I’m going to try out the other three. Always love your videos. You’re my favorite. 😊
Yaaasssss! I was waiting for The Queen's Thief series! I read these books because of your recommendation & love them so much especially The King of Attolia. 💖💖💖
Hey Reagan, just a friendly note that the Three Dark Crown book wasn’t mentioned in the down-bar 😇. Loved the video! Totally recommend reading The Wrath and the Dawn by Renée Ahdieh, which is 395pgs. It doesn’t start of with a lot of fantasy, but it gets there ;). The story is so good and the ending is absolutely phenomenal!
Of the seven mentioned I’ve read Three Dark Crowns, The Cruel Prince, and Furthermore. I’ll keep An Enchantment of Ravens on my radar as my next read :) Thanks for the recommendations !!!
Oh my god I watched this video and then read An enchantment of ravens and I absolutely loved it!! It's the first book I've read in SO long and I'm so glad I read this book! Thanks Reagan!!
You’re honestly the only person on YT whose videos I can’t wait to watch. Although I don’t typically enjoy fantasy and sci-fi, I find myself picking up books that you recommend every time I visit a bookstore, and I’m never disappointed. I’m gonna purchase the Mistborn Trilogy just because of you and I’m sure I’m gonna have a good time reading it. Thank you so much for creating content that enable people to fall in love with reading. And thank you for being so genuinely yourself that you just draw people in with your wonderful personality.❤️
Finally someone sings the praises of An Enchantment of Ravens. I adored that book and laughed so many times at the interactions between Isabel and Rook. The writing was beautiful and descriptive too
I really love this video! I would really appreciate maybe a video of how to read through the Brandon Sanderson books. I have no idea where to start or how to continue!
Did you read Sanderson then? If not, hop into it! My recommended order: Mistborn Era 1 first. You'll like it so much, you'll wanna read something by Sanderson again. Now you read Warbreaker, and then Stormlight Archive! I did not follow this order myself, but after reading through all of it, this works best.
I loved The Cruel Prince!! It’s full of twists and surprises and it has such an interesting and intricate world. I love that it’s set in the modern world as well but in a world of itself. And the sequel... UGH! Too good. Can’t wait for The Queen of Nothing.
Have you ever read the Gentlemen Bastards series by Scott Lynch? I just finished book 1 (the lies of locke lamora) and I feel like you will LOVE IT. (That is, if you haven’t read it yet😬) Thanks for the recomendation on short books, I really need that sometimes hahaha
The thief surprised me how good it is. I’m taking a break after book 3 cause I want to read 4 and 5 rugby before 6 comes out.and yes it is funny and very clever, like Oceans 11 clever twists.
Poison Study (Study Trilogy) by Maria V Snyder is also very short and really good and Truthwitch (The Witchlands Series) by Susan Dennard I believe is also under 400 pages
I started reading The Thief series toward the end of last year and I loved it. I only started reading it because of you.❤ I still need to finish the series hopefully I get to it this year. I also love the Three Dark Crown series I can't wait for the last book.❤
My tbr-list just passed 250 books. I put all the series you mentioned on there except for Three Dark Crowns and Cruel Prince as I’ve already read the first books of both these series 😊
The silo series (trilogy) is still one of my all time favorite and it’s also one of the most unique. Time waves trilogy was also very cool. And lastly Legend trilogy by Marie Lu. On her Young Elites trilogy now.
“This is just me trying to trick you.” Love Sanderson’s books so much! I really want to pick up the second era Mistborn series ever since I finished the first three books. Thank you for the suggestions length definitely can help me make a decision to pick up a book or not. 😊
Also i work at B&N and the thief has been my staff rec for literally five-ever thanks to you itss SO DANG GOOD so yuh im glad to see it on this list!!!
I love A Darker Shade OF Magic and Caraval I think those are both under 400. I'm surprised you didn't mention ADSOM unless it's not under 400 ages and I just think it's short lol. But now I really want to read An Enchantment of Ravens it's been on my tbr for a while, but I forgot it had fae in it and I've been loving books with Fae! Especially with hate to love romances so I loved the cruel prince lol
Holly Perrett, I just read it as well but I feel like I didn’t know the characters as well as I could have because I wasn’t super connected with them. I loved the concept, but it was super predictable. What do you think?
@@avadelarosa6839 I do agree to some extent but I feel like that is the case for a lot of books at the beginning of a series, so I'm excited to read the other books and hopefully get to know the characters more and have a more developed plot
Scarlett lost in the five lands by rajendra sarilla is a good short fantasy book. Its about a fifteen year old warrior princess called scarlett that ends up in a different world where society is divided into four races based on skin colours - blue, pale, brown, and silver. What i loved most about the book were powerful female characters and brilliant action scenes. It's a fast paced novel with just 170 pages. This book is so good that it may become a big hollywood movie in future if it gets enough attention. I read it on kindle since paperback was not available in foreign countries
Like my TBR wasn't burying me enough. Ahh. Okay I read Quests & Quandaries recently which is a satire fairytale fantasy quest story that was HILARIOUS. Definitely recommend.
Love the video! Althoug I prefer Emperors Soul of Brandon Sanderson. I think that to enjoy more alloy of law you have to read first the previous triology.
Can you do a recommendation video on short reads/novellas specifically in fantasy and dystopia? This is what I read and write and curious what other people like in the (really) short form of these genres.
i was looking for some short and quick reads and look who has come to help. here comes my rec fairy. just now wrote the review for rich people problem by kevin kwan and all began with regs rec of crazy rich asians
I haven't read a single fantasy book under 400 pages so far this year, oops. I should really pick up some of these soon, definitely An Enchantment of Ravens.
I just finished The Crowns Game duology by Evelyn Skye and the first book - The Crowns Game - is 399 pages! Haha so just under 400! And I loved it a lot!
I don't know how many pages it is, but I recommend "The Girl Who Drank the Moon" by Kellly Barnhill. It's a super sweet, quick read with Howl's Moving Castle type vibes.
These are some great recommendations! I read so much so it is nice to have some shorter books to be able to crush for that Goodreads Goal "*Am I right?!*" 😝.
narnia? various neil gaiman (stardust, neverwhere, coraline, an ocean at the end of the lane)? wayward children series? an unkindness of magicians? wrinkle in time series? miss peregrines home for peculiar children series?
Great vid ! One quick suggestion, it would be great if you could link goodreads links as well ! Oh, also, I think you forgot to add Three Dark Crowns in the description. www.goodreads.com/book/show/28374007-three-dark-crowns?from_search=true seems very interesting, instantly added to to read list !
A classic fantasy would be the Narnia series. All of the books are really short and has an amazing audiobook!
True, but I think a lot of people think of them as a “series”.
aren't audio books just someone reading the book to you?
"This is quite the shorty"
My brothers and their friends as they laugh at me trying to get something off the shelf.
So officially my TBR has crossed 💯 my short fantasy would be The Winternight Trilogy each book is under 400 pages
I've just started the Winternight Trilogy and I'm loving it so far!
THATS NORMAL LOL AND I LOVE THAT TRILOGY TOO
ANIME & GAMES I just loved Winter Trilogy. Could you please suggest something like that. 😊
Love that trilogy! Became one of my faves
I absolutely adored that trilogy!

Just to be clear, SHE'S ENTIRELY HUMAN. There.

I'm gonna read it now then, thanks! Its cheap on kindle here too :)

Another short Brandon Sanderson story: The Emperor’s Soul it’s a stand-alone novella and one of my fave stories by him
I was just getting ready to recommend The Emperor's Soul! It's one of my fav Sanderson books. Have you read Perfect State? It's a sanderson Sci Fi novella. I think these 2 books perfectly illustrate his depth as an author - 2 genres, both masterfully written

I loved this video, fantasy is probably my favorite genre! And your new hair is fabulous!
I thought Jude is full human but her sister Vivi is half/half 🤔
She is
Yes Jude and Taryn are full human and Vivi is half fae!
I really appreciate your recommendation of a book shorter than 400 pages that requires you to read the 1500+ pages long trilogy that comes before it XD. Brandon is defiantly a great place to start if you want to get into adult fantasy though, and then you can move on to the 3000+ pages of SA and the rest of the Cosmere
What does SA mean in this case?
Sorry to ask, but I couldn't find it in the dictionary...
@@lea6385 No problem, it's just Stormlight Archive, Brandon Sandersons ten book epic fantasy series

Yaaasssss! I was waiting for The Queen's Thief series! I read these books because of your recommendation & love them so much especially The King of Attolia. 💖💖💖
That so? I'll definitely get it then :) Thanks. I know Im late btw.
I love An Unkindness of Magicians. It’s short, it’s a stand-alone and it’s freaking incredible!
The Book Fawkes I agree! There is a sequel listed for publication for June 2020 too.
@@smithal I just found that out! It gives me hope in ways I am afraid to hope lol
Someday authors will understand that telling good stories using few pages is a top tier quality
Looks like this month I’ll be reading a lot more mystery lol. Thank you so much for the recommendations ❤️ also, I absolutely love your style:)
*laughs in priory of the orange tree*
froncifresh same, I just got it from the library

The Golden compass books are short I believe, and they're super good, engaging readings
Pau Reyes Yes! ‘The Subtle Knife’ is my fave of the series. 💜
It’s simply amazing
I read the cruel prince and twk and it is now one of my fav book series ever !
I learned book multitasking from you. I'm reading 'A Court of Wings and Ruin'. 'Illuminae', and 'Neverwhere' at the same time. Lol
Holly Black's tithe was very first chapter book that I had read since high school,I loved that book so much. I even loved Valiant and Ironside,too.😁

For Middle Grade, not necessarily short in page length but very easy to read, I would recommend the Land of Stories.
Honestly I was just thinking that I wanted to read a fantasy book next so this is perfect!
I'm currently reading the wicked king!!!
freaking love the queen's thief !! I'm planning to reread it all this summer before the next book comes out

I aggressively recommend Melina Marchetta's Finnikin of the Rock. So so so so good!! I reread it and the sequels every year.
Great list, thanks for sharing.
Empress of All Seasons is an interesting fantasy, and under 400 pages :)
I don't know how many pages it is, but I recommend "The Girl Who Drank the Moon" by Kellly Barnhill. It's a super sweet, quick read with Howl's Moving Castle type vibes.
OH! Witchmark by C.L. Polk! It barely hits 300 pages but it's SO good!
These are some great recommendations! I read so much so it is nice to have some shorter books to be able to crush for that Goodreads Goal "*Am I right?!*" 😝.
Loved this video. Totally caught my eye. Btw have you checked out the An ember in the ashes series? It is amazing and i think you will love it. 💜💜

narnia? various neil gaiman (stardust, neverwhere, coraline, an ocean at the end of the lane)? wayward children series? an unkindness of magicians? wrinkle in time series? miss peregrines home for peculiar children series?
The Thief series is bomb, I'm on the 3rd book now
Three dark crowns sounds a lot like Grischa, at least the magic system. So if you like the one, you might like the other^^
Great vid !
One quick suggestion, it would be great if you could link goodreads links as well !
Oh, also, I think you forgot to add Three Dark Crowns in the description.

seems very interesting, instantly added to to read list !
The Ascendance Trilogy by Jennifer A. Nielsen is a really good fantasy series that I am pretty sure is under 400 pages
Some of my recent reads (short fantasy) are the deny series by Sara B. Larson. Though I personally would give them a 3.5 on 5 rating.
An Enchantment of Ravens was just okay for me
