It’s time for another trope rec list! And this is one I can be a bit of a sucker for when it’s done well.
Chosen one trope is defined as a book where the MC is the one who is prophesied to save the day/ only one powerful enough to save the day, and so on and so on.
My rec lists don’t come with loads of chit chat, it’ll just be a straight list for you to go off and read more about the books yourself. This is a mix of fantasy and romance that I have sourced from different rec videos across Tiktok, Instagram etc.
If I’ve read the book, there will be a link to my review.
