It's got astoundingly strong female characters, very well done character development/interactions, very intricate worldbuilding with interesting components of science-fiction alongside its fantastical elements, and it's overall really gripping and intense.
It's "quieter" than Throne of Glass simply in a smaller amount of action sequences, but it makes up for that in extremely tension-filled socio-political dealings. And when it does get down to the action? OH MY GOD.
Just. just read it. I need more people to fan over this series with, lol. It's really wonderful. The final book in the series comes out in November.

Ooooh I love those books!

P.S. Really?! I could not stand Falling Kingdoms. Oh well ;)"
Love this series


I am currently reading Ruined by Amy Tintera (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...)
This book is okay so far (perfect for my Empire of Storms hangover!) It's a story with another kick-ass female lead called Em. Ruined has a similar vibe to Throne of Glass. Plus it's the start of a series (second book due next year) I am curious to see where it goes, although it hasn't hit me in the feels yet like Sarah J Maas' stories do!















Yes! oh my goodness I loved that series! And if you liked that, you should try 'Six of Crows'. It's set in the same universe, but like 50 years later. It's a bit more brutal, but so worth it!

Yes! I've been dying to get my hands on Poison Study. Have you read any of the other Maria V. Snyder books? Touch of Power was really good.

This whole list made me hyperventilate! I've read quite a few of the bokos on this list, and I absolutely loved them. the ones I haven't read, i'll definitely be giving them a try. you hav amazing taste in books. ;)

These aren't necessarily similar to ToG and ACOTAR but I loved them all and I hope you will too!!


Also Graceling is a good one. That also has a film due out this year I believe.
