[@reecewinningham9035]

[@elenathegreat]

[@ioladear14]

LOVE RYHS SO BAD ♥♥♥

[@leatherandlace7]

A court of mist and fury will officially make me lost my shit. I can't wait.

[@vastridturner5853]

Hahaha that noise Sarah makes when you said you were a ChaolxCelaena Shipper XD

[@ioladear14]

"I get anxiety when I'm not on Pinterest" Me too: with your Twitter & Instagram :) ♥

[@blakeskelton]

I can not wait to get my hands on her new book! She is very talented at what she does.

[@kaitlynabroad]

I loved watching this interview! I absolutely love Sarah J. Maas! She seems so nice and down to earth. I absolutely love all of her books(: Great job with this video!

[@soulfully_yours]

Woohoo! My question got answered! Thank you for asking and I'm so happy about the Hades and Persephone myth. I love Greek mythology and can't wait to see how Sarah incorporates that into the book!!!! But I ship Feylin and in Crown of Midnight, celaena said 'I'll always pick you' to Chaol and when Sarah said that Celaenas already picked, hope flared in my heart!!! I hope that's what it meant. Great q and a, you looked calm and executed that perfectly! And some great questions, I feel like I got a ton of new info on both series from the q and a!!!

[@justwaitingforlife]

But she took the ring off... :( Can't tell you how close I was to abandoning the series when she shut him out. Been waiting for them since book one.

[@melaniedonato7958]

ROWAELIN AND RHYSXFEYRE!! I CAN FEEL IT ♥

[@talia1723]

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

You're so lucky!! She seems so genuine and sweet!

[@BookNomming]

Great Interview! I am so gutted I won't be able to meet her tomorrow at my local waterstones, but hoping one day I can meet her!

[@Zeefatima123]

Such a great interview!

[@anovelidea4841]

I love Sara J. Maas, but I haven't read any of her books! I really need to get a library card and get into them because I feel like I would really enjoy her work. She seems to have a really fun personality based on the videos I've seen her do on booktube. :) Great video!

[@ANoteToSelf]

+Ryan Teo thanks! (this is my other channellol) My library always has this one checked out and only the first book!

[@MarissaRHYS]

We all enjoyed chapter 55 of ACOMAF lmao!!! Don't lie, Rhysand's wingspan was what brought him in lmao!!!

[@mintymelt]

I wonder if Sarah intentionally made their names Feyre & Rhysand Bc their ship name (Feyrhys) sounds like "Fairies" ALSO THUMBS UP FOR THE FEYRHYS SEX SCENES. HELL YEAH.

[@sofiamoraga9812]

I think the ship name is Feysand 😊

[@talia1723]

The ship name isn't feyrhys its Feysand!!

[@jenniferp.1279]

Yay! Someone on the same team with me! I ship Chaol and Celaena. ❤️😭

[@tessahliane9642]

I can't deal with this, I need her to stay with Chaol!!!

[@marianeto573]

SAME

[@Bookishbroccoli1]

Tessah & Liane lol 😂

[@BookwormKristie]

This is AWESOME 😱😱❤️❤️

[@Lucy-wi4ny]

Tam Lin is Scottish. I take my fairytales and folklore very seriously.

[@ash120ify]

Which fairy tale retelling is she going to do now that ACOMAF is out???

[@goldminutes]

Apparently the third book will be based on snow white!

[@ash120ify]

That should be interesting!

[@carinarosas8449]

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE!! TELL ME WHERE CAN I FIND THAT SAMPLE OF BOOK 5 PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

[@al_t3421]

5:20 ME WHY AM I LIKE A CLONE OF MISS MAAS

[@enak1029]

Why always make the lead changes lover constantly, both the lead of the two series had several lovers! Why can't just hav one, is there no other way to prolong the story without using this method? It makes the lead seems like a "playgirl", which I found it frustrating. I'm not critisizing the author, I loved the series so much but this is only point I hate about both series.

[@julialuminasalsa]

Feyre is everything BUT a playgurl tho... you did read the books right?....

[@DirectlyHere]

I didn't really think about it much when I read it but I'm so disgusted that Feyre and her family literally ate someone.

[@stellaisteeth]

I know this may be a weird reaction to your comment, but it actually made me a bit giddy, because few fans and analyses actually discuss this or its implications. Would you mind if I ask, what precisely disgusted you? Was it that the scene was an introduction to the character of Feyre and the world which Maas created, which fundamentally established cannibalism as expository narrative akin to the myth of redemptive violence? Was the action of eating a Fae that Feyre and her family took disgusting in and of itself? Were the previous actions Feyre undertook against the Fae--hunting, killing, skinning them, etc.--disgusting? Were these actions superseded in the amount of disgust by the family's cannibalism? For that matter, it's difficult to directly confirm that their act _was_ cannibalism, since the definition of cannibalism is a rather arbitrary social one, wherein a member of a species consumes the flesh (only the flesh) of another member of their same species. Feyre and her sisters ate a Fae, who inhabited a non-humanoid form at the time. Still, later on, each sister became Fae; did their act become cannibalism only when they became Fae, thereby satisfying the (again, arbitrary) definition of cannibalism? .....

[@DirectlyHere]

I think the entirety of it is disgusting. Maas doesn't really delve into this and leaves it up to the reader to realize the severity of what Feyre and her family did but Feyre herself (when I look back) doesn't ever feel sickened by this but more of just that she killed an actual Fae in general. The idea of unintended cannibalism is even more disgusting and twisted than actual cannibalism psychologically, as it was explored in the early Hannibal Lector movies if I remember correctly. Thinking more on it I am more disturbed that this fact was never brought up in ACOMAF when she's going through her PTSD time or even in ACOTAR for that matter. If someone told me that the wolf I killed and cooked up for my family had been a person that would send myself and anyone I feel into a spiral.

[@MsS-J]

They didn't eat the wolf. She skinned him to sell his fur.

[@indicraftqueen725]

+maria chi Thanks. Their bond removed reminds me of a brother and sister bond.

[@mariachi6763]

If you read ACOMAF you'd understand the type of bond(s) there is ;) Better than the first for sure

[@indicraftqueen725]

+maria chi FINALLY someone who gets it. It does really remind me of brother sister bond though
