Same! Throne of Glass is my fave! I gave the first book 3 stars but I wanted to keep going to find out what was going to happen. Gave the 2nd book 3.5 stars then Heir of Fire became my fave book, 5 stars for it and the rest. I guess I’m an oddball ☺️ I loved ACOTAR but not as much as ToG. Just finished house of earth and blood and loved it too!

I’m so happy to see someone on booktube who so openly loves SJM! I was mainly on booktube about 2 years ago and a huuuuuge lover of SJM and her style but literally everyone in the community hated her (or at least that’s how I felt) so I could hardly find any videos about her books aside from rant reviews. This video is so amazing and you’re so well spoken! From one SJM fan to another, you nailed this video, x

I’ve seen so many comments that say they don’t like the ACOTAR series but I’m IN LOVE WITH ALL OF THEM! Every single book in that series. Rhysand : a masterpiece, Amren: a masterpiece, Feyre: a masterpiece, Cassian: a masterpiece, Azriel: a masterpiece, Mor: a masterpiece, Nesta: a masterpiece, elain: a masterpiece, Tamlin: a tool . I LOVE IT. She wrote those books beautifully and everything came together seamlessly.

Something worth mentioning about Sarah J. Maas is that while her writing style is consistent her story telling is different in each series. Some people love ToG and hate ACOTAR and others are vice versa. They have their similarities but they also have many significant differences. Her work has something for every fantasy-romance fan

This video made me so happy, it seems like nowadays it’s “uncool” or dumb to love SJM and her books, but I just finished HoEaB and it just blew me away and reminded me just how much her books mean to me and how easy her writing is to get into, especially after struggling to get through a few other reads.

i watch so many videos of people hating on Sarah J Maas and her writing but I literally just can’t get behind them. SJM is undoubtedly my favorite author. I’ve loved every book she’s ever published and i think she has some of the best characters and world building in YA fantasy. Every time i finish one of her books i literally cannot pick up a different book, i have to go back and reread because i’m blown by how amazing her books are. I literally CANNOT WAIT for house of sky and breath.

I started with the Throne of Glass series and I absolutely love these books! I am currently reading Empire of Storms. I have to say that I agree with your comment that getting through the first couple hundred pages is tough, but it does pick up and when it does I cannot put the books down. I plan on reading all her books eventually because I like the way she writes and I personally really enjoy her books. Thanks for this video, I have really only been able to find reviews about people who dislike her books so its nice to see someone else out there that loves them as much as I do.

If I'm correct. I started reading SJM when the 2nd Throne of Glass book was out, or maybe it was about to come out. Can't be sure--anyhow, I've been in love with her books since then and pretty much the only books I buy full price on release. Most things I buy in clearance or used.

I just finished A Court Of Thorns And Roses series and I loved it!! Her character build up was amazing. I have noticed that a lot of the reviews on KZbin SAY that they like fantasy but they Don’t and only say they do because they approved or love ONE fantasy series. So, that they would appreciate a fantasy- romance would be a stretch to say the least.

I loved Throne of Glass and Crown of Midnight. 5/5 stars for both. CoM gave me a book hangover. lol HoF 4/5 stars. Didn't love it as much. Now I'm definitely going to continue the series. And I read A Court of Thorns and Roses but decided not to continue despite giving it 5/5 stars. I think because I liked one ship while so many people liked another. But don't know why that made me stop. Think I'll continue with this one too. And the Catwoman one and her latest. Let's read all the SJM books. lol I better get started. Thanks for the video!

I started with throne of glass this year. Before that I didn't even know about it and I have to admit I almost put it down because I didn' like the second and third book. I absolutely loved the fourth one but the fifth was also a slow read for me and it took me ages to read it. Now I only have the last one left and I'm so happy I read it because I'm absolutely in love with all the characters and their development, especially Manon, Dorian and Lorcan. I'm so happy you said that this series isn't her strongest and I absolutely look forward to read her other books because of the stunning worlds with all the details she created!

Just a quick tip, if you want the events of the first part of HoEaB to hit right, DO NOT read the synopsis on the back, it kind of spoils something that shouldn’t be spoiled, and I was so relieved that I didn’t read the synopsis until after the big event happened!

I have also read every single one of her books and love them all!! Becca did a fabulous job of putting all my Sarah J. Maas feelings into a great video. Everything she said was so accurate! I definitely recommend this video for anyone new to SJM. This would have been extremely, helpful for me when I first became a huge fan of her writing! I just have to say one thing that I disagree with. I would personally read Assassin's Blade before reading the rest of Throne of Glass. It gives helpful information on the details leading up to her capture and context on what exactly happened. Also, you meet a few characters that are important throughout the rest of the series. I believe that it would provide the reader with a better sense of Celaena's background story. That being said, I agree with everything else Becca said and enjoyed this video immensely!

Freye and Rhys relationships is the first healthy relationship I ever read.. I've had so much truama in my life and carry shame and guilt around who I am and how deeply I felt unlovedable.. A court of mist and fury and court of wings and ruin tought me no matter what.. I'm worth loving.. Because everyone in her books you can see they are worth loving past their worth mistakes and that you can be mad at someone and still love them and be loveable.. For this I'll always deeply love her writing..

Hi Becca, loved this video, came to the SJM world very late in the game. God the ToG series was just fantastic! I wasn't expecting how much I was going to love it.... I don't really get the whole hatred for her over the internet... SJM really makes you get so attached to her characters and you go on quite the emotional journey with them. I have started Cresent Citÿ before reading ACOTAR...its verrry different in tone to ToG due to it being set in the modern world but its quite interesting so far :)

I started with Throne of Glass on Audible and loved the series. I’m currently contemplating buying them on Kindle to physically read them (no space on my bookshelves for physical copies). Then I read Crescent City and LOVED IT! I was very disappointed when I learned that the other books in this series haven’t been released yet. I just finished A Court of Thorns and Roses earlier today and am almost 100 pages into A Court of Mist and Fury now. Have loved them all.

I really liked throne of glass, I thought it was a really amazing series with a good plot and story arc but I really didn’t like a court of thorns and roses, I haven’t finished the series but I found the first one very slow and boring, it honestly seemed very much like a beauty and the beast rip off and continued to feel even more so that way at the big plot reveal of the book, “young woman is forced to move away from home and live at the e luxurious home of a man to pay off a debt, although she doesn’t know it she has to fall in love with him in order to break a curse put on him by an evil lady and has a certain amount of time to do so before all of the people in his land are stuck cursed forever”

I am trash for Maas as well, this coming from a 31-years old man. While I do get why some people wouldn't like her books, I don't understand the hate she gets. People sometimes. I started in 2015 with Throne Of Glass and am now doing a reread of the series as a whole. Kingdom Of Ash has to be my favourite, though. That book ripped me to shreds. While I liked the first two books, I started loving the series with Heir Of Fire the first time around. Now, though, knowing where she's going with the story, my love for Crown Of Midnight - the second half especially - started blooming. Throne Of Glass is nice, but rather a cookie cutter book. Tower Of Dawn was also a big yes for me. Perhaps not as engaging as what came before, but I wouldn't ever skip it. I have yet to read something by her outside Throne Of Glass, but I am looking forward to everything and everything.

Maas and her beautiful books, I am very excited to read Crescent City! And as always “to the stars who listen- and the dreams that are answered”, thank you 💖

I started with The Assassin's Blade and Throne of Glass and LOVED them. Unfortunately, ACOTAR and ACOMAF weren't for me... so if you don't like ACOTAR still definitely give Throne of Glass a try!

When I was reading the Crown of Midnight I gave up 1/3 in, for like a year or two. I only picked it up when Queen of Shadows was released and I got curious about it. It was the weakest and least interesting to me. It's the one with Baba Yellowlegs if I remember correctly, and if so that the only thing I remember right of the bat. A very nice guide!

I will not give up on a series but you’re definitely right about the first few books of TOG. I struggled to read them but I will not give up on the series. Goals to get thru TOG and ACOTR series this year. I’ve owned them physically for wayyy too long 🙈

I also love SJM’s book too!!! I haven’t got the chance to read Crescent City. I am waiting for the series to finish first. I started reading her TOG series into ACOTAR and everytime I finish her books I need to wait a year for the next book to come out. It’s just pure torture 😆

Unfortunately I have read Anne Bishop's Black Jewels Trilogy when I was much younger so I couldn't help comparing how she wrote Rhysand (who is very similar to Daemon) and the familial relationship in Anne Bishop books is also similar in Sarah's books. Nevertheless I do enjoy Sarah's books, I loved ACOTAR and Throne of Glass series!

I read ToG first when I was like 16 and I really liked it, but i forgot everything about it and i just couldn't get into the second book. Same as ACOTAR, I remember liking it, but I couldnt get into the second. But if that's your fav, I'll try to read it again and remember what happened in the first. Now I tried again with Crescent City series, I'm only 20% into the book and I already love it so much. As you said, its definitely her best work. I literally was so shocked so early on into this book and I'm all here for it. I need the second book already, I don't want it to end😂

Thank you! I’ve read the ACOTAR books (which I adore) before Throne of Glass and I am struggling to get through the first few books of this series. I’m halfway through Crown of Midnight but honestly if I didn’t have my best friend telling me it gets better I would have given up by now and moved on to Crescent City. Currently reading ACOSF right now and it’s quickly becoming my favourite of them all 🤩

I really like Sarah. I discovered her last year. I'm in the middle of Throne of Glass. I reed Crescent City and can't wait for the sequel. I love Heir of Fire, way better than the previous two. I still have to read ACOTAR. I guess I'm a sucker for Fantasy romance and Sarah hahaha. You have my sympathy.

I’ve read the ACOTAR and Crescent City series and I am currently on Crown of Midnight but I’m so bored and I’m not really enjoying it. But I’m assuming that we are similar and I’ll like the last three more I hope haha. Is heir of Fire better than crown of midnight?

Heir of Fire is a difficult one because I didn't like it much the first time I read it but I appreciated it a lot more upon reread. It is mainly a bridge that transitions the series to the direction it takes for the last 4 books and focusses mainly on Celaena's character development. There are also new characters introduced and it can be annoying because they seem irrelevant but then they turned out to be some of my favourites of the series. I think if you're not enjoying Crown of Midnight then you will probably like Heir of Fire more 😊

Came here after Gavin's Believeathon Part 2 premiere. I wanted to watch this as I'm a huge fan of the ACOTAR series and have already read House of Earth and Blood twice, but the Throne of Glass series feels daunting because it's so divisive. I greatly appreciate your take on the series as it helps me to gauge some of that and prepare to start that series soon.

You described the Throne of Glass series so perfectly! Readers either really like the first half, or the second half because it really switches from Young Adult to Adult (High) Fantasy. I love both, but do prefer the second half, especially Queen of Shadows. SJM is one of my favorite authors and I loved how much you fangirled over her because I could completely relate 100%. I am starting ACOTAR this month! Finally getting to the rest of her books :)

Ooooh I feel like loving Queen of Shadows is an unpopular opinion, a lot of people consider it very long and slow. I love it but I love all of them tbh haha. I couldn't help but take the opportunity of her releasing HOEAB to go hard with my fingerling tbh haha. I hope you love ACOTAR as much as the Throne of Glass series!
