Hello Answerlanders,

A patron is looking for our help:

"My friend is a book fanatic but hasn't been able to find any that interest her. I was hoping to get her a good next book for Christmas. She is pretty picky so I was hoping for some help and suggestions on what to get her. She has read and enjoyed books like Harry Potter, Lockwood and co., Laviathan, and enjoys poetry like Edward Allen Poe. There are millions of books that she's read but these are the ones she has talked the most about. She is in love with angst in books and does enjoy slow burn romance as long as it doesn't interfere with the stories main plot. Love triangles are something that really make her hate a book. She is also a quick reader so a series would be preferable. The one thing she loved about Lockwood and Co was the depth of Lockwoods character. She also loves a book with a lot of vocabulary. After she read Laviathan she talked like they do in the book, using a lot of German words and speaking very properly. She rarely ever reads non fiction, so books with a fairytale sort of story would be best for her. Thank you for your time. "
