Definitely consider 'An Ember in the Ashes' by Sabaa Tahir. It has a richly imagined world with elements of magic and a budding romance between the two main characters from different social strata. The political intrigue and the characters' growth in the face of danger all while their relationship develops make it a great read.
There's 'Dark Matter' by Blake Crouch. While it's more on the science - fiction side, there are elements of a relationship that are important to the story. The mind - bending concepts of parallel universes and the main character's journey to get back to his family (and his wife) are really engaging.
Sure. 'Uprooted' by Naomi Novik is a great choice. It has a blend of magic, a unique world, and a slow - burning romance. The story is captivating, with the main character's relationship to the powerful wizard evolving throughout the book.
Sure. 'Ender's Game' by Orson Scott Card is a great one. It tells the story of a young boy, Ender, who is trained to fight in a future war against an alien race. It's a book that delves deep into themes of leadership, morality, and the cost of war.
Sure. 'The Vanished Birds' by Simon Jimenez was one. It's a beautifully written book that takes readers on a journey through different worlds and time periods. The story is full of heart and the science - fiction elements are well - integrated.
Sure. 'The War of the Worlds' by H.G. Wells is a classic. It was one of the first to depict an alien invasion. Then there's 'A Canticle for Leibowitz' by Walter M. Miller Jr., which is set in a post - apocalyptic monastery. Another great one is 'I, Robot' by Isaac Asimov, which introduced the Three Laws of Robotics.
One great book is 'A Court of Thorns and Roses' by Sarah J. Maas. It combines a fantasy world filled with magic, faeries, and dangerous creatures with a strong romantic plot. The main character, Feyre, is drawn into the world of the fae and her relationship with Tamlin is full of passion and challenges.
Sure. 'The Time Machine' by H.G. Wells is often overlooked these days. It was a pioneer in time - travel stories, but newer works have kind of pushed it into the background. 'The Invisible Man' by Wells too has science - fiction elements that are forgotten. It's mainly remembered for the horror aspect, but the scientific concepts in it are quite interesting. Also, 'The War of the Worlds' by Wells is not as talked about as it once was. It had a great impact when it was first published, but now it's a bit of a forgotten gem in the sci - fi world.
Sure. 'Ender's Game' by Orson Scott Card is a best - seller. It focuses on a young boy, Ender, who is trained in military strategy in a futuristic setting to fight an alien race. It's a thought - provoking exploration of war, morality, and the nature of humanity.
A good one is 'Snow Crash' by Neal Stephenson. This book is set in a near - future world where the Metaverse exists.

It's full of action and interesting technological concepts.
