I feel like I’m the only one who doesn’t like how dark the book got? I liked the first book until it got so dark, and I never hear anyone talk about how dark it gets. I feel like that’s something that should be talked about at least to warn people about how violent it is.

You saying this makes me want to read it more lol. I'm not a massive fan of cookie cutter books. I love grit and darkness more. It makes it feel more realistic which is what I like about reading. I will read cute stories as a break from the darkness but dark books are truly my favourite kind. Me saying this makes me sound sadistic lmao. I hope someone understands what I mean.

Right? I gave it 6/5 stars and it’s one of my favorite books ever. It’s a little frustrating when people reduce the book down to nothing but smut when it carries so much more value than just its smut scenes. If you’d taken all of those scenes out of the book, still would’ve been 6/5 stars and everyone still would’ve loved it.

I actually love the idea of purposefully buying only one book in a series at a time and making a point to drive back to the bookstore. I always feel weird about reading series because as a kid I would get gifted maybe 1-2 books in a series and then have to wait an entire year to get the rest which SUCKED so I felt like I never finished any. So - as an adult I just want to own the entire series immediately (which financially isn't always possible). So I really appreciate this different perspective on buying books in a series!

I read Acotar four years ago and it's still my favorite series ever! It's crazy how Sarah has this ability to make us feel inside the world she created and be completely immersed into the story I still remember the smells she describes, textures, the streets of Velaris, each court's aesthetic, the music... And the characters she writes, they inspire and amaze me even after all these years. I've read so many books in my life but none of them were as special as Acotar and Tog. Sarah made me love reading again, made me appreciate art even more and took me out of a depression of years because her books gave me the hope and courage that I needed to start getting better!

I was SO excited to see what you thought of ACOSF and then you DNF'd it 😂 I literally said out loud out to my screen, "dude no, it gets better!" 😂 SJM has such a wonderful writing style, they're big books but they don't feel like it when you're reading them. Throne of Glass is a longer series (I think 7 or 8 books) but less spicey than ACOTAR, but still in the same fantasy, easy to read world building style.

​@@meh5069 I think the fact that feyre didn't have a big confrontation that perfectly resolved everything with Nesta was pretty realistic. If I was watching my sister destroy herself I wouldn't use that moment to remind her of all the shitty things she's ever done. I don't have the best relationship with one of my sisters but I could move past our teenage years to help her in adulthood. interpersonal relationships rarely get a perfect resolution irl. it makes the story a little more believable, especially the fact that Rys never really forgives Nesta for how she treated Feyre.

I agree! I wasn’t sure I would like ACOSF because it was about Nesta and the way her character was portrayed in the other books made it hard to like or understand her but I have to say this was my favourite book in the series. I related some much to her and the character development was really good. I have never felt like the sunshine girl and even though Feyre had her struggles and darker times I feel like she is still portrayed like this throughout the series so it was nice to see a character that isn’t the antagonist not be this sunshine filled character

I agree, I did hated Nesta and genuinely thought that this books will be the worst (if I even finish) but months after reading it, I keep thinking about it, about the healing journey Nesta went through, physical and mental, about the supportive friends she got and I wish I would have found friends like that who fight traumas together and read. It is genuinely amazing book and to people who went through trauma it can help (it did to me). I especially love that it is also one of the few books where we see main character working out their trauma and getting somewhat over it, in most books it just happens all of sudden....❤

I've alway stayed away from reading this series because reading series usually intimidates me but after watching this I think you've convinced me to read it! Thank you for another reading video and inspiring me to read outside of my comfort zone :)

This is my favourite series of all time. I unintentionally read this series in a week too. The first 4 books ruined me and the last one brought me back to life. I need the next book already

this series was a lifeline for me when things in my life were getting really really bad. I have not totally finished the series, still working on the last 2 frost and starlight and silver flames as they were not out when I read it the first time. but yes, this series will hold a special place on my bookshelf right alongside HP and LOTR

My gosh Haley, it is insane what you have done to me; I heard so much about this author and this series, I badly want to know what's the hype is about and so I attempted the first chapter of the first book...TWICE, but can't get through it, and your vlog makes me want to give it a go again and I managed to reach chapter 5 (a feat for me) LOL.

Sooo true! You have to read what you’re in the mood for. I read the entire TOG series without reading the prequel because I knew what happens in that book and I told myself I wasn’t ready for that much emotional heart shattering grief. Now I’m trying to force myself to read it so I can officially finish the series but I’m not motivated to and tend to gravitate towards books I’m wanting to read in that moment.

i definitely agree with the spice amount being a little too much. I felt like having that much took away from the whole plot of the book. Wish she made a book about Nesta’s character arc, and then made the spiciness into a separate book for those who WANTED to read it. Unfortunately had to suffer through the spice just to learn about her arc 🙄🙄🙄

Hi! I’ve read the twilight series, shatter me series, cruel prince series etc.. I would really like to get into reading the acotar series but scared it will be too spicy for me. Do you think it would be ok for me to read at least the first book based of the books I’ve already read? Sorry this comment is probably kinda confusing. 😅

i’ve only read the first one and am at part 2 in the second, but i’ve watched all of cari can read’s videos on it and agree, it should’ve stayed a trilogy/maybe the novella as a parting gift. i watch those videos all the time as a comfort series and Never watch the last one bc i watched it once and hated the plot and the change of perspective😂

a little tip for an unbroken spine is to 'prepare' the book before hand. so you lay the book on a table on their spine and than page for page (on either side at the same time) you flatten them on to the table. Still you have to be carefull around the middle part because it can stil '' break', but it is what helps me with paperbacks. And a good podcast. or audiobook during this also something I recommend! btw, I really liked your vlog!!! Keep uop the good work. and reading of course, haha.

I also read ACOTAR in three days. The 2nd book took me 5 days of reading. I’m more than half way thru book 3 now and it’s been 3 days. I’m averaging 8 hours a day of reading and it’s hard to put them down. The books are so good. And addicting.

When you get to book five remember that the first half is a rough read, but it's designed to be that way and the payoff in the second half more than makes up for it! Hope you enjoy the series!!!

I’d say best to least best ; 3,2, 5, 4, 1 Also love after you finish each you watch Cari’s summery videos cause I did that too 😂
