Hey, im searching for a (character driven) fantasy book written by a female author with a female lead, who despite being strong doesnt loose her feminity over it. So absolutely no "not like the other girls" characters pls. I want a strong mc whos feminity is part of her, which she's proud of. The book also would preferably not be solely romantasy. I love love love interpersonal relationships in books a whole lot but i would prefer the romance not being the sole focus.

Fifth Wing maybe? Lots of romance but its got a fun story and lots of entertaining characters. MC is a strong female character, but maybe not overly feminine. About as feminine as any other woman in a warrior-centric culture I guess.

    Do you mean fourth wing? I'm a few chapters in and I thought it was the poster child for Romantasy.

    So far the budding romance is absolutely center frame and the world building either directly holds up the romance or it's kinda background.
