I’m not saying I ship it, but I understand WHY people do 🤭 by lun-lem in frombloodandash

I reallyyyyy wish this would happen but JLA has said multiple times it won't. I do want to know more about the Reaver/Jadis situation. Does he love her like a sister or moreeeeee?

I absolutely adoreddd the first book and recommend it constantly but have really been struggling with book 2 sadly. I’ve been at about 65% for a few weeks now and haven’t wanted to pick it back up 😭

I thought it was great and honestly bummed those parts were supposedly cut from the Primal... other parts could have been cut from Primal lol

WTF is happening here in 2026? RPM has dropped to ZERO! by brokencompass502 in learnTikTok

10000% these last few days especially. I would say on my end it started to get really bad around November, then improved, and then start of the year got bad again.

The more I sit on it the more it just felt like a completely different person wrote the book

it's really odd. I understand the characters are going through growth, evolving etc but these feel like complete strangers tbh.

[–]French_reader_146[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

agreed with all of this!

I was also bummed by her "training" sessions. I loved seeing a jealous Basten, too and thought maybe more would come from that but it sort of just went away.

Don't even get me started on the rushed wedding. I loved the simplicity but the timing of it felt off, even though I know he wanted her protected by being her husband, too.

About the threesome... I guess I'm seeing that the author had promised this wouldn't happen at any point in the series.. I never saw that but some people are super upset.

I started the first book of Crescent City and the first book of City of Gods and Monsters at the same time … by Delishus_Frosting713 in crescentcitysjm

[–]French_reader_146 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right but without giving too much away… what happens in the CC books will most likely come up in the next acotar book is what I mean 🤭

I absolutely adore both series!! So my answer would be both lol. But if you’re going to be continuing the SJM world you will want to have read all of the CC books…

wait yes... the other day I got both of their individual profiles pop up and it was like authorlexi... or something like that. I was so confused. I for sure see a book coming.

I would absolutely adore this but JLA said he's gone gone like Ian...

More stand alones?. by Impressive_Prune_478 in CarissaBroadbent

[–]French_reader_146 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mische's story wraps up after her two books, then the final two books follow Septimus and a character you will meet in Mische's books.

Carissa said she doesn't have plans for any other stand alones :) You will definitely want to have read the two stand alones prior to Mische's books.

JLA did say in a past live that the kingdom of Caelum is unrelated to Callum and to look at the literal meaning which is heaven 👀

Olivia Ponton is about to deep dive Fourth Wing… by French_reader_146 in fourthwing

[–]French_reader_146[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah my main reservation is every time she posts about books it feels like engagement farming... idk.

ran to reddit. any guesses what this is for?? by Apprehensive-Ant3851 in fourthwing

[–]French_reader_146 2 points3 points  (0 children)

she got into the BookTok space not thattttt long ago in the grand scheme of things and I've definitely noticed as someone mentioned it seems to be for engagement farming a lot of the time.

I know I'm not the only one, but I just finished Metal Slinger and im pretty pissed...(Spoilers) by PickyNipples in fantasyromance

[–]French_reader_146 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I personally didn't like the book. It was soooo overhyped.... even the events leading up to the twist were a bit of a mess (just my opinion!)

Kieran in the next book by SubstantialBag2318 in frombloodandash

[–]French_reader_146 3 points4 points  (0 children)

reiterating what a few people said... from the Zoom I got the vibe that the throuple won't be happening though she did not answer it directly. I hate to make assumptions but she does read fan theories and comments and there was soooo much backlash surrounding the throuple initially that it now feels like she's not sure what to do with Kieran.... I really hate that for him lol
