Life After ToG & ACOTAR ~ What To Read Next

[Booknut, Head Moderator]

Here is a place to post up books which you think are similar (albeit, maybe not as good as!) to the ToG/ACOTAR series for your fellow bookworms to check out :)

[Booknut, Head Moderator]

Shadow and Bone (The Grisha #1) by Leigh Bardugo is very similar and I loved it to bits. I would highly recommend it! http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10...

[Sydney she.her]

I honestly can't think of anything worthy enough to put on here.
I mean I don't want to suggest a book that was just "ok" in my eyes. It needs to be good.

[Melissa]

Usually I can't think of books as 'similar' they are incomparable for the most part. Sure certain aspects may remind me of another book but its like trying to make the choice between a grilled cheese sandwich and chicken pot pie. Both are delicious in their own right, it all comes down to whatever you're in the mood for.

LOVE that book!! And nice choice :)

Poison Study by Maria V Snyder

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

[Hannah]

I'd recommend Graceling or Grave Mercy. Poison Study is amazing as well.

[Rachel , Co-Moderator]

You read my mind Hannah!

Grave Mercy really reminded me of Throne of Glass a lot. Katsa reminds me of Celaena :)

LOVED shadow and bone!! seriously recommend it.

[Rachel , Co-Moderator]

Defy by Sara B Larson sounds quite similar as well!

[beth]

I can't think of any that are close to this. There's a lot of other books that I LOVE but none of them are close to this so...

[Michelle]

I just finished Seraphina by Rachel Hartman and liked it very much. The love interest, Prince Lucian Kiggs, is (of course) a prince and also the captain of the Queens guard. Isn't that the perfect mixture :-)

I agree. the level of emotion is beyond anything I've ever read. Crown of Midnight had me in tears by the time I finished it.

"Queen of the Tearling" is good by the way.

Game of thrones by GRR Martin

I haven't read the book (watched the show though) and some people call throne of glass a younger version of game of thrones so...

[Em]

Snow Like Ashes by Sarah Raasch


His Fair Assassin series by Robin LaFevers

[Polly]

Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson
The Name of The Wind Patrick Rothfuss

[Stacy]

Polly--- Loved both series!

[Ashley]

Ok not sure why but The Winner's Trilogy by Marie Rutkoski kinda reminds me about Throne of Glass though I like Throne of Glass better :D.

[Stacy]

The ending of the second book of the winner's circle was heartbreaking. I can't wait for the third installment.

[Ashley]

Oh same here!!!! It's sooooo far away!!!! I wish it would come out this year.

[Abbey]

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!
So many books i want to read!

[Abbey]

I love cinder!cant wait for winter!

[Stacy]

So, I just revisited this post and realized that every book/ series people have put down I have read and enjoyed. Awesome sauce.

[.chel.]

I'm currently reading the Lunar Chronicles. Does anyone know how many books are in the series?

[priya]

There are 4 and a novella. 3 of them and the novella are already released, the Lara book will be released I think in fall.

[Ashley]

Cinda Williams Chima's Heir Chronicles and her Seven Realms series kinda remind me of TOG... Hey even if they didn't remind me of this series I would still recommend them lol. They're that great :D.

I loved that series!!! I loved the darkness of the book.

I love this trilogy!The Darkest minds Trilogy.

[Lexie]

Yeah The Darkest Minds is great! I've only read the first book but it was great!

The second and third are even better.

[Lexie]

Ooh, great. So eager to read them.

[Elle]

Okay so some of these are veeerry different compared to Throne of Glass but I feel like they have similar themes. For example, most of them feature a strong female main character and most of them incorporate some form of magic. Also, some of these have been posted before but oh well...

Snow Like Ashes by Sara Raasch
The Wrath and the Dawn by Renee Ahdieh
Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard
Red Rising by Pierce Brown (the plot of these aren't similar at all, but I feel like the main character of this book and Celaena can be similar. idk its a good book just read it)
The Ring and the Crown by Marissa de la Cruz
Touch of Power by Maria V. Snyder
Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder
Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Graceling by Kristin Cashore
The Winner's Curse by Marie Rutkowski
The Deon King by Cinda Williams Chima
Eon: Dragoneye Reborn by Alison Goodman
The Goose Girl by Shannon Hale
Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead
An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir
Shatter Me by Taherah Mafi

[Stefani]

Personally I loved the Graceling series by Kristin Cashore. It has a very similar feel to it. I would recommend it for fans of ToG & ACOTAR.

[Kat]

I have read most of the suggestions, or want to anyway.

I would only add Tamora Pierce's Tortall novels, specifically her Trickster's Choice and Trickster's Queen, as they seem most similar in plot.

Poison Study is EXTREMELY similar to TOG, not criticizing your choice tho! I wouldn't really recommend it though, the plot is a rehash and the characters are boring. That's my opinion.

[Rachel]

Here are some books that are like

Oh My God ! I LOVE The Seven Reals Series ! That series is absolute awesomeness , such an outstanding series . I honestly prefer it to ToG series .

[[deleted user]]

Nothing will ever compare to Throne of Glass but I recently read Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard. It's even a 2015 Gooodreads choice nominee!!

[Brooklyn]

I agree with Amanda; I can't imagine anything comparing to Throne of Glass :D

[Lexie]

I recommend The Young Elites also. It is pretty enjoyable. And it's medieval and got magic, so it's a little like ToG. But yes I wholeheartedly agree, nothing could compare.

[Brooklyn]

Thanks :) I'll look into them :D

[Grace Meredith]

Oh I definitely agree Lexie! The Young Elites by Marie Lu is sooo fantastic, the writing style is really dark and twisted and the characters are SO complex. I would really highly recommend it! I mean, of course it doesn't compare to ToG, but it's still very awesome.

Also, I dunno if ya know, but A Court of Thorns of Roses is another book by Sarah J Maas that is just beautiful. :)

[Lexie]

I'm reading it now after leaving it for so long.

[Brooklyn]

I'm going to read "A Court of Thorns and Roses" in between the Throne of Glass series (:

[[deleted user]]

The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer are really good too!!! I agree that A Court of Thorns and Roses was great as well!!!

[Grace Meredith]

Amen to that! The Lunar Chronicles are definitely a very special and unique series. THANK GOD WINTER IS HERE. Although I'm also kinda scared...

[[deleted user]]

OMG!!! I just read Winter and it was epic!! I totally Ives Jacin! He was almost as good as Wolf!! Almost.

[Xoxoasia]

Just read the second book in the Daughter of Smoke and Bone series and it was great! Definitely a must read for people who like TOG.

[Grace Meredith]

Xoxoasia, I love that series! We need to bond and fangirl. :)
