hey i accidentally uninstalled my memories so if i did this already my soz but:
read girls made of snow and glass, by melissa bashardoust. one of the few fantasy books i actually felt like represented me (nonwhite protagonists y'all!) and the story itself is p good in my imo
@autistikai oh if you want a good fantasy series with nonwhite protagonists you’d like the Craft books. first one stars a black woman, second one is a mesoamerican dude, iirc the third one is pacific islander or something? i do remember she’s trans. it’s fantasy-Earth but the cultures are all broadly similar to real-Earth
also it’s about how capitalism fucking sucks
also there’s a gay skeleton dude

@hierarchon nice i hadn't heard of those thanks for the rec
sounds a bit reminiscent of ursula k. le guin's work, which is a good sign
@autistikai the backstory involves the God Wars, where a bunch of extremely powerful Craftspeople killed the old gods because they saw them as oppressing humanity, and the second and fifth books especially deal with the fallout of that: people whose faith system was shattered when their god was killed and then their city bought out by the conglomerate that did it
