Fantasy books with an interesting "soft magic" system? (lemm.ee)

The title pretty much says it! I'd like to explore that idea a little and would love to hear y'all's recommendations. This thought was originally inspired by lord of the rings, but I'm also currently on a little nostalgia trip by reading The Sea of Trolls and the soft magic system in that is pretty fun

A bit unconventional, and certainly not high fantasy, but: John Dies At The End by David Wong.
