If you are a TRUE sci fi lover, you might like Through the Hostage. It's a little confusing in the beginning, but if you stick with it, it all comes together in the end.

Mira Grant's Newsflesh trilogy. Zombies by way of a mutated virus. Again, great world building.
And the author behind the pen name of Mira Grant, Seanan McGuire. Her October Daye series just keeps getting better.
Sadly, while I have recently gotten into ASoIaF, I haven't read much in that genre otherwise. At least not recently.
If a standalone suggestion is welcome, try The Chess Garden by Brooks Hansen, or Noah's Wife by T. K. Thorne.
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

If anyone else has suggestions as well, definitely leave them here! I read for a few hours everyday and get through them pretty quick.

It's got magic (obviously), 3 new worlds to lose yourself in, and romance (but not a predictable one)
It's really good, some great characters and funny bits too.

Is the reality of the world different from how we perceive and experience it in our minds? Does physical reality exist apart from the human mind?

There's also Curio by Evangeline Denmark. It's very steampunk/dystopian and I was immersed and hooked literally a few pages in. It's really hard to describe how amazing this book was without giving things away, but I couldn't put it down from the moment I picked it up.

The Others series by Anne Bishop (I haven't read her other stuff yet though I've heard good things) - paranormal in it's own world. Awesome characters and great story with some gore
The Lupi series by Eileen Wilks - paranormal but mainly earth based. Smart strong characters that build throughout the series. As the series develops you also get more on the side characters as they grow in importance
The Aliens series by Gini Koch - paranormal, funny and a little steamy. The main character gets thrown into ridiculous yet awesome situations. I can't put these down
The Raine Benares series by Lisa Shearin - paranormal, based it it's own world. Again smart and interesting characters that are fighting an evil gem and the evil henchmen who want to use it for world domination.
The Dowser series, The Oracle series and The Reconstructionist series by Meghan Cianna Doidge. All set in the same world but focus on different main characters.
Love all of these series they are auto buy's for me and slightly dangerous as I will stay up late reading them
