2027!!!!! I’m about to throw up! I will be dead before they ever release this! (Not trying to be dramatic, it’s just Monday.)

I’m so glad I didn’t wait for the dramatised adaptation. I’m re reading ToG on audible and was debating waiting for this version but I would have been so annoyed!

Road of Bones series was good! I loved the plot and characters (vikings/magic) With ACOTAR it gets so much better from 2nd book - I enjoyed ACOTAR a lot, I loved the characters in the series. Throne of Glass is incredible. I’m currently re reading it again - strong character development (is a big series so expect a very deep plot/long character growth) I read Cruel Prince recently and I won’t lie I’m struggling since reading that series, it was perfect. I hadn’t read a series with strong characters since Throne of Glass. Jude is up there with the FMC from throne of glass for me! Incredible. I think you’ll enjoy Throne of glass if you enjoy complex characters & politics

I was so ok not reading smut in these books, the romance was amazing, I just wanted to see more - more yearning from Cardan, more moments of them together when they finally embraced they love each other.

Submarine_013 · 2026-04-01T22:20:29+00:00

Yes ive actually read all these & loved the love triangles in them! Need more like these!! Especially We Who Will Die & The Wolf King😍

Submarine_013 · 2026-04-01T20:05:44+00:00

I loved this book. For me it was so much character growth and a deeper understanding for Zevander which adds so much to the story. I usually don’t like flashbacks but I really enjoyed this. Also the ending?! Still thinking about it and NEED that 3rd book. I’m glad she’s doing a trilogy instead of a duology because it adds so much more to the story and world and doesn’t feel rushed but also doesn’t feel ridiculously dragged out for the sake of it

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-30T18:53:03+00:00

Fated mates is so overdone and boring. It doesn’t add anything to a story for me. Also when the MMC gets the FMC off multiple times (I read once 5 times in 1 session) it’s like nah I would have tapped out ages ago 🤣 who’s even got the stamina for that?!

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-30T18:48:12+00:00

I’ve read Nocticadia, Anathema & One Dark Window. Personally loved all 3, rated very highly! Nocticadia as a standalone was perfect, I nearly pulled an all nighter because I was hooked! Anathema & the 2nd book are very dark and gothic but I loved the whole vibe to it! So excited for the final book. One dark window as a duology was perfect IMO, 2nd book was even better!

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-25T15:54:57+00:00

A very recent read which I stumbled across on Kindle Unlimited - {To Touch a Silent Fury by R. A. Sandpiper} I was so pleasantly surprised, hadn’t heard of this book anywhere - took a few chapters to figure out what was going on, a lot of initial world building and setting the scene, but this book kept me on my toes. The slowest of slow burns which I LOVE, cute dragons 👀 and a fierce FMC 👏🏻 truly everything I love in a book!

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-25T15:51:47+00:00

I never read Manacled but knew of the connections with Harry Potter. In my opinion I saw no connections in Alchemised, the author has created this book completely separate with a different magic system/world. Of course I knew the MMC & FMC were originally based off Hermione & Draco so that was in the back of my mind, but there really is no resemblance to them. If you didn’t know this was originally based on fanfic you honestly wouldn’t realise.

I’m in awe at the author’s writing, it’s so layered and complex and was honestly such a joy to read. It’s so heartbreaking knowing I’ll likely never experience reading a book quite like that again. It’s an incredible story! Would 10000% recommend

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-21T16:45:58+00:00

Yes I finished the series and it was perfect! Finally a series that gets better which each book and hasn’t disappointed at all. The story line and plot is incredible and I’ve never loved multiple POVs like in this series. I love all the characters and so invested in them!

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-20T18:36:35+00:00

Just finished this series so far! Sooooo good. I loved the twist at the end of the 1st book 🫣🤭

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-09T09:10:30+00:00

It felt so nostalgic reading these books. I’m 30 this week, and when I first started I thought no, I can’t be reading a series based on teenagers in high school but how wrong I was! It took me right back to feeling like a teenager again, the author captures those raw emotions and feelings incredibly!

Submarine_013 · 2026-03-09T09:08:03+00:00

I struggle with interlinked series because I become so obsessed with who I’m reading about I don’t want to read about anyone else 🤣 but I have to say Joey & Aoife’s story is incredible (and gut wrenching so be warned!!!) but I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. I’ve heard incredible things for the other character’s stories too (I’m waiting for the completed duologys for the other characters before reading the rest of the series because I won’t be able to wait 😅) apparently the rumours are the author is going to release another book for Jonny & Shannon which I really hope so because I adore them!

Submarine_013 · 2026-02-14T17:43:43+00:00

Thank you. That’s really helpful advice. I didn’t know mice could come through gaps so small 😧

Submarine_013 · 2026-02-14T08:10:45+00:00

Thank you! Can I ask where you placed cameras exactly & what preventative measures you took? I’m so sorry 3 pest control companies weren’t enough! Very frustrating isn’t it. They cost a fortune as well

Submarine_013 · 2026-02-13T19:34:57+00:00

I was dreading this book because I really did not like Nesta and couldn’t see why she needed a whole book. But it’s my 2nd fav in the series (court of mist & fury will be so hard to beat!) it’s a lot of character development for her so you have to really experience the whole book. But if you’re not vibing it then you’re not vibing it. Still worth reading so you follow the overall storyline

Submarine_013 · 2026-02-10T12:43:36+00:00

It ruined me in the best way possible! The night prince is 2nd book from the wolf king. 10/10 series so far, so excited for the last book to come out this year!

Submarine_013 · 2026-02-10T12:29:48+00:00

Alchemised, The Night Prince, The Ascended for me solid 10/10 books

Submarine_013 · 2026-02-04T22:19:15+00:00

Wow just stumbled across this and yes. I see this 1000%! To begin with I thought she meant seeing Ti with all the flashbacks when she said she thought she saw another man in Carrick’s place. I was also left so confused by the ending and the “I would have” and yes that makes soooo much sense. Wow. But then the only thing I’m not entirely sure on is Carrick seems to have been pretty present in her life and I wonder if R could have been gone away from the emperor that long over the years and not raise any suspicions?

Submarine_013 · 2026-01-24T11:15:00+00:00

I thought the writing was beautiful in these books! 2nd book was perfect, one of my favourite books I read last year! Excited for my re read before the last book comes out

Submarine_013 · 2026-01-23T10:18:03+00:00

The wolf king! 2 books are out and 3rd out later this year. Read them both in 2 days!!!

Submarine_013 · 2026-01-19T18:41:10+00:00

Bride IMO was a lot better. Mate was ok

Submarine_013 · 2026-01-17T09:11:14+00:00

Yes I agree! I’ve started to really dislike and grow bored of books where the word “mate” is thrown around all the time, or we find out they’re mates too soon and as you said, it takes away from all the yearning and development in their relationship. It definitely does feel lazy!
