Never thought I'd be into fantasy, but here I am
Â
I didn't think fae was my thing, but I'm ready to be put onto another timeline. Can book 6 please drop?!
A Court of Thorns and Roses Series by Sarah J. Maas
Â
Book #2 of ACOTAR. I immediately ran out the day after Christmas to secure this in 2023. It was sold out almost everywhere, but I luckily locked it down. The obsession just began. Keep reading, I promise it's worth it!
A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses Series #2)
Â
Book #3! This is where the books started to get bigger and I became a bit intimidated. But the story is good and it keeps the slow burn we're all yearning for. Another one I couldn't put down.
A Court of Wings and Ruin (A Court of Thorns and Roses Series ...
Â
The novella of the group. This one is super easy to get through, but honestly wasn't my favorite. It's like of an intermission of sorts. Regardless, if you can read the big books, this is a breeze!
A Court of Frost and Starlight (A Court of Thorns and Roses Series)
Â
The final book ... for now. I truly loved each character in this series, but Nesta will always remain a favorite. I can't wait to see what's next for book 6. Looks like Sarah is working on it now!
A Court of Silver Flames (A Court of Thorns and Roses Series #4)
Â
This series took me awhile to get through, but there was a ton of character and world building. I also really love a group of bad ass women paving the way. I can only hope that you pick up this series and love Manon just as much as I do. I would read...
Throne of Glass Series
Â
Forget wizards and witches, dive into vampires. I'm loving this series! Also it's a quick read and not overly long.
The Serpent and the Wings of Night: Book 1 of the Nightborn ...
Â
Book 2 of the Nyaxia series. I just finished! It definitely has flairs of ACOTAR, but I really like the characters. So much so, I'm starting Book 3 ASAP!
The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King: Book 2 of the Nightborn ...

Excited to kick this off! I think the author introduces new characters to in this book. Will updated once I read more

Omg I finally understand the hype. If you haven't read this yet, please do yourself a favor and do so!

Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage

What a character, what a scene. Could I relate, no? But sometimes you don't need to relate to someone's story to just give it a go. It was definitely entertaining.

I'd give this 3 stars. A little monotonous and boring, but interesting to understand the dynamics of an affair.

Book 4 can't come soon enough. I genuinely loved this series so much. I promise if you like fantasy just a little bit, you will like this characters.
