Picked up this fantasy book a few days ago, Curse Entwined, after I saw it floating around Instagram. I haven't been disappointed yet, but I'm only about 5 chapters in. I hope to finish it within another week or so and move on to another great fantasy read. Last year I wasn't able to read as much as I wanted so I'm hoping I can accomplish more this year

The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov. The Devil makes an appearance in Stalinist Russia, with “a retinue that includes a beautiful naked witch and an immense talking black cat with a fondness for chess and vodka” (from the GR intro; the cat also wields a Mauser).
Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, a magical alternate history of England. By Susanna Clarke, who more recently wrote the beautiful but sad
Piranesi.
