Six Crimson Cranes by Elizabeth Lim
With approximately 93,000 ratings, Six Crimson Cranes deserves a nudge past the coveted 100,000 mark. This enchanting tale has a distinct fairy tale vibe, reflecting elements of Asian folklore. Following Shyori, a princess battling to lift curses placed on her and her brothers, the book offers a refreshing take on fantasy narratives centered on softer strength rather than traditional warrior tropes.
If you're searching for a unique story that strays from the usual strong female protagonists, this one is a refreshing change.
