Maybe you could do a video reading your sisters favorite fantasy books at some point next year? 2023 was the year I got back into reading Fantasy thanks to Fourth Wing and have been loving it!

[@sarahdee4475]

This is such a fun idea!! I second it!

[@PeaceLoveBooksxo]

I LOVE this idea and I asked her and she said yes!

I read Assassin’s blade after Heir of Fire and for me it was the perfect place and time to read that one.

[@kimberlypearce9677]

I read Assassin’s Blade after Heir of Fire and I think it was perfect. I know some people say to read it before but I think it set up everything really well going into Queen of Shadows.

[@stardustlattesbooks]

I read assassin’s blade after heir of fire and it was the perfect place in my opinion because you’re connected to the characters by then

[@janaszeglin3087]

I read the whole series and then realized that I didn't know about Assassin's Blade. I'm rereading the series again and I started with Assassin's blade and I'm so glad I did. It came whole circle for me!

[@kellywarner2136]

I read it after heir of fire and I think that is the best way to read it. I feel like the story line in assassin’s blade has more of a impact when read after heir of fire

[@caitlynbower8388]

OMG I LOVE THAT DANIELLE L JENSEN SERIES!!! It’s so under read!

[@springintoreading7225]

I'm in middle of TOG and loving it! Still haven't read Assassin s Blade..

[@xGhayda]

Assasin's Blade first!

[@lauraiswatchingvideos]

Maybe not the answer most people would agree with, but I read Throne of Glass to see if I liked it, then Assassin’s Blade, the Crown of Midnight. It actually worked pretty well!

[@theresakemble5973]

You need to read 6 Scorched Roses the novella first before The Ashes and the Star-cursed King. 6 scorched roses is now in Audiobook. Also I loved A dance with the Fae Prince, and one more thing, I absolutely love, loved NEVER!!!

[@katlynwolles9721]

For The Assassin's Blade Novella placement, I was so confused when I first read the series too haha. I would say either read it first or third. I would say do not read it after Heir of Fire, because that's where the series kicks off and TAB is a slower book set in the past. Honestly the reading placement is not as important as some people make it out to be. I read it third but I told my friend who just started the series to read it first, either works.

[@rysreadingcorner]

I started the throne of glass series this year and I read the novellas first and I am really glad I did! I really need to get back and finish the series!

[@rysreadingcorner]

I just dnf the sun trial one!

[@Harley24986]

I started with Assassin's Blade and Now that I'm at Kingdom of Ash, I think it was the perfect choice.

[@lunalovegood9431]

I have read the entire ToG series but I have not read Assassins Blade yet. I want to read it at some point but I know it’s going to be heartbreaking. I have heard it’s best to read after Heir of Fire or in order of publication.

[@ashleykinney4294]

I didn’t read Assassin’s Blade at all with my first read through of the books. Then, I read it first before I started my reread and I really think it gives you so much context that way! So I would read it first!

[@markdillree5227]

When will they redo the covers for the magnolia parks series ?I refuse to buy the current additions with the feet on them.

[@PeaceLoveBooksxo]

I don’t think they plan on redoing them!

[@aprilskylynn]

I LOVE FANTASY 😆💕📖🧚‍♀️ ESPECIALLY ROMANTASY!!! I sure hope Jess that 2024 is a great reading year of romantasy for you!! So exciting!! 📚🍾🥂🎉🎆🧝‍♂️⚔🐉 As for The Assassins Blade, I felt like I got alot more important background information/history of the MC along with other characters. I just felt more connected with the world and alot more attached to characters as well after rereading it- and seeing these important things later on in the series. I honestly wished I read The Assassins Blade first when I was introduced to the series. Anyways yeah, I personally recommend reading The Assassins Blade first. It's also much more easy to get into it that way...🤗📖

[@Warda-H]

As a SJM stan lol I think The Assassin’s Blade needs to be read first. Everytime I reread it (read it over 6 times now), that’s the book I start with. It provides context for Throne of Glass since they’re prequel novellas. Plus you see Celaena as an actual assassin. But you can’t go wrong with reading it in publication order either.

[@NovelLife]

Allllll the romantasyyyyyyyy ❤

[@taylorburks6835]

Hey Jess my 2 favorite romantasy books from 2023 are fall of wrath and ruin and dawn of the onyx.

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I still haven’t read throne of glass series all the way through 😭 I’m on heir of fire

[@caitlynbower8388]

ASSASIN’S BLADE 3RD!

[@harmonysky]

Already waiting for your review of the Trial of the Sun Queen…I’ve heard mixed reviews and am hesitant to pick it up.

[@MissPoppetXx]

I read Assassin’s blade after Heir of Fire and it worked great. I think if you read it first there are a few semi spoilers but that’s just my thoughts 😊.

[@Bookbonkers8439]

I haven’t read the Throne of Glass series, but if you read them in publication order then you’d read Assassin’s Blade 3rd, so I’d probably do it that way. 🤷‍♀️

[@readernac13]

I love the Throne of Glass series. I’ve read all of Sarah J Maas except Kingdom of Ash which I am reading after I’m done reading Tempted by the Devil by Michelle Heard and To Kill a Shadow by Katherine Quinn. I read the Assassins Blade third and I found that very helpful because the info was all fresh in my mind when I read Heir of Fire. I especially loved A Court of Thorns and Roses series. And I’m so excited for House of Flame & Shadow!!! Her books are just phenomenal!!! Have you read the Crave series? That was really fun!!! I can’t wait to read Never. 📚☺️

[@sanorinilusha2933]

I was really excited when I started reading Bewitched cos it had the markings of a good book but was really disappointed by it. 🙈

[@happily_ever_april]

you legit have inspired me to do a romantasy novella video lol. I agree some of these books are just way too long!

[@PeaceLoveBooksxo]

Aww yay! I can’t wait for that video 😍

[@emmakat5344]

Read Assassins blade third!!!!

[@emmakat5344]

(The plotlines of Sam hit so much harder 💔)

[@liezllovesbooks]

I just saw Fit teacher Rachel gave never five stars so now I’m curious about it.

[@Luna-po5ui]

Team Assassin's Blade first! I read them as individuals novellas first, wayyyyy back when Throne of Glass was first coming out/might not even have been published yet (so like you HAD to read it first lol), and you get so much more investment in the character. People like to criticize ToG for her never assassinating people and DOES...if you read the assassin book before it! Absolutely firm believer in starting at the start.

[@courtneyclarke654]

I just wanted to give you a heads up that empire of the vampire is a fantasy book, not a romantasy. The book is good but I'm not sure it will be your cup of tea.

[@zubaerchaudhari8267]

Hey there hello there hi hey

[@Gina-et4td]

Read Assassin blade first

[@Georgia7Pap]

I read assasin's blade last and it hit me so much harder. I would recommend last. Throughout the series she meets various characters that she has history with and because of that they help her. In assasin's blade you see how she meets them and what happened with each of them for them to feel like they owe her. Also you see her relationship with Sam and how it affected her throughout the series. When I read that it gutted me. Also you have to read them back to back or else you'll forget the plot. Don't read one book now and another months from now. You'll ruin the experience that way. What I'm dying to read is "Burning crowns" by Catherine Doyle. It's the 3rd book in a ya series. It's about twin sisters who are witches. They are seperated at birth. One is raised as the future queen and the other is a badass warrior witch. The warrior kidnaps the princess and takes her place so she can be crowned and ultimately the witches can take back the kingdom. In the 2nd book the warrior badass witch gets kidnapped by the bad guy and they start having a thing.... It's fabulous! I really can't wait... the 3rd book comes out on April.

[@marlenreads]

I read Assassin’s Blade first and helped me understand the characters better.

[@1014ewillis]

You don't need to reread the first one to go into Ashes of the Star Cursed King

[@delisareads]

I read The Assassin’s Blade third. I think I would’ve lost interest had I read it first. Definitely read it before Heir of Fire 😏

[@thirtysecondstomaria]

Don't read the Assasians Blade first!
