Hell yes! It’s Ian Time! I love the Dark Tower. I loved all the ties to other authors’ universes. It’s such a wild ride! Also, if you and Ashlynn loved ACOTAR, I suggest reading the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. Think Disney Princesses but with sci-fi. I actually think as far as retellings go, Lunar is better, but I loved both series for different reasons. The series is also YA, so no smut but there is def angsty romance. It’s so dang good!!

Anyways after watching this video and your reaction to the Dark Towers books I think I'm going to order the series. I read the first book probably 25 years ago when I was in my 20's and loved it. Never got back into it but after this video I think I'm ready to go thru the series. Can't wait. Sorry I keep commenting on each video but I'm really enjoying your content. Keep up the good work sir.

If you like ACOTAR have you tried Anne Bishop the Black Jewels series which may have inspired Maas. Anne Bishop also has an amazing urban fantasy about the others and some books that are great high fantasy and another set with travelling between worlds via bridges. I am always astonished how few fantasy readers try Bishop. Same as I am surprised so many Hobb fans don’t try her work writing as Megan Lindholm. For a stand alone fantasy cross horror I love Weaveworld. It’s an oldie and a regular reread ❤

Omg! If you loved the ACOTAR series, you really need to read Throne of Glass. It's more fantasy than fantasy romance, there's literally no spice, the characters are amazing, it's pretty traumatic (just like any SJM book), but it's so good!. Also the Crescent city series by SJM. It's an urban adult fantasy series, the books are pretty big ( they're 800 pages each ), there are some spicy scenes, but again it's so good. The third book comes out in January 2024 and let me tell you: the ending of the second one will leave you speechless.

Holy hell, I thought you would end up reading more than your initial July TBR but 9 books is insane (considering how big some are). When you got to ACOSF I was laughing in agreement to those scenes :D I must say that - like some - I was really looking forward to Nesta's story, cuz she is probably my favourite from ACOTAR^^ Also, regarding the controversial side of it... in my opinion, there should not be any :D I mean, the previous trilogy was written in Feyre's POV and now you get Nesta's so obviously the perception of the whole thing happening with Rhys makes sense? I think a lot of readers considered Rhys to be a literal saint and thought that he cannot have any faults and now he wasn't "presented" in the best light but honestly, I think I liked him better now than before precisely because he was shown to make mistakes in this novel. That being said, thank you for the wrap up! I can't wait for next month's as well cuz I'm finally planning to dive into The First Law trilogy so I'll be glad of some other reviews on the novellas that will come next!^^

FIRST LAW, YEEEESSSS!!! Can’t wait to hear what you think!! Man’s I totally agree with ACOTAR! Rhys always seems disgustingly perfect. I appreciate him being written form Nesta’s perspective. It makes him, and honestly everyone else, more well-rounded characters.

I love Stephen King and want to read Dark Tower but wasn’t sure if I had to have read some of his other books first. I some of them are interconnected with his series and don’t want any spoilers. Is it worth just jumping into it?

Great question! Honestly, the series only mentions King’s other books and some characters form them, but it doesn’t give any spoilers away. Jumping in to it without reading anything else of his won’t ruin the experience of any of his other works.

Just curious who do you use for your audio books? I use Libby and have like 10 library cards I feel like that’s a lot of work on my end I guess I’m just cheap and don’t wanna give Amazon more money lol

I get that😂 I use Libby as well! Thankfully, my library is part of a consortium, so I have access to hundreds of libraries in my state in the Libby app. I use and abuse that app, let me tell you😂

Also, DNFing a book counts as reading it IMO. You gave it the chance and amount of your time it deserved.

Yeeeeaahhh…it was over the top in it’s descriptions. The movie was so dumber down in shock value. The book…severely disturbing.

I respect the way Stephen King can tell a story. I didn't like The Gunslinger. I DNFed IT. I did like 11/22/63 but I didn't get to finish it since it was a library book and I moved.
