Recs for the “old” books no one talks about anymore but should?

Slump, slumpy slump sssaaaalummmmppppp (with a popping p)

I’m really trying to fish for good books here, maybe books from like 2018 and before? It seems all people talk about is books after 2018 (which is understandable).

Surely you have amazing books that blew your mind a few years back? The stuff that was as famous as all the books you all rave about these days.

Remember when the old books had a plot like an adventure? None of that AI stuff?

Ideally fantasy, paranormal, sci-fi, dark romance also noice.

If contemporary it needs to have a cool plot nothing everyday drama please.

Im fishing for PLOT but it HAS to have smut at-least 🌶️🌶️🌶️.

Cmon there has to be good stuff out there paleeeeeeeeese!
