need book recs please

Book Request 📚

hi, new here so not sure how this works, but i need help with what to read next. I'm fairly new to fantasy, mostly read the popular series eg. ACOTAR, ToG, Fourth Wing, CC, Once upon a broken heart etc. so not very well versed in this genre. I have a few requierements-

  1. preferably finished/mostly finished series bc i cant wait between reading😭
  2. preferably fae stuff but I also don't mind other supernatural things like witches, vampires, gods, angels etc.
  3. the romance isn't the main aspect of the book- more like a subplot/one of the plots- i was actually reading shatter me but DNFd today bc i feel like it's only about the romance
  4. minimal smut- i love tension, yearning and minimal spice (think cruel prince or ballad of never after), even 1-2 spicy scenes is fine but i hate books where the smut takes up half the book (looking at you ACOSF🫣)
  5. don't mind YA but i'm 23 so overly childish/immature characters don't do it for me
  6. i love strong badass FMCs (Aelin&Jude are loml)

My fav series so far have been Cruel prince trilogy& ofc ToG.

Thankful for all recommendations, hopefully my requierements aren't too much😅🙏🏽
