I’ve read nearly 400 fantasy books and some of the GREATEST books were also HIDDEN gems! So here are my top 25 most underrated fantasy books!
This is what I did to curate the list! 🧐
– I took all the books I had read
– Filtered only for those I rated with 4 ⭐️ or more
– Then used only those books that had less than 35K ratings on Goodreads (as a proxy to see if it is a hidden gem or a somewhat popular book)
I gave all those books a score based on those 2 parameters (stars and also the number of ratings) and that provided the scoring that I will be using to rank the books here!
