Let me share a personal experience: I’m a big fantasy fan – seriously dedicated to escaping our everyday lives when I do sit down to enjoy literature and fiction. I distinctly remember 2021; all I craved were lighthearted, fluffy novels and series; frankly I'd re-read an older release again and again – because new titles were much harder for me to engage with that particular year. It felt harder, somehow.
