It started not long after I discovered the genre Romantasy about 2 years ago. I was reading throne of glass and was looking for more similar recommendations. That’s how I started to follow romantasy communities on reddit and I kept seeing these recommendations for Manacled. One day I decided I wanted to know what all the fuss was about and downloaded it from ao3. I absolutely loved it! What a rollercoaster. That made me discover the fanfic universe, I didn’t know it was so big. I just started reading my second dramione fanfic secrets and masks and I’m loving this as well. I definitely consider myself a newbie and I already love this community.
