“Caraval” gets so good after the first book! I think the first one is more for the world building ❤️

I still found this series kinda meh, but I think it’s just me. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion

You are like the second or third person I have heard talk about the Lightlark duology so I will have to put that on my tbr for later. I tried the Caraval series but I couldn't get into it but her writing is definitely great so I get the hype for the series. Great selection and hope you enjoy.

I've been seeing Lightlark all over the place now too! I need to hurry up and read it before my expectations get too high 😋 And I haven't read anything by Stephanie Garber yet, so hopefully I like her writing...now that I've basically bought all her books😅😂

Isn't it so pretty!! 😍🖤✨ The Cruel Prince was one of the series that got me into reading fantasy, so I'm excited they came out with a special edition.

LOVE LOVE LOVE THE ONCE UPON A BROKEN HEART TRILOGY! CAN'T SAY IT ENOUGH. HOPING TO GET TO READ THE CARAVAL TRILOGY THIS YEAR.

Omg love the effort the author put into sending that book to you 🥺 Ooo the candle-spinning-fairy decoration is so cuteeeee ❤ Ahhhh I absolutely loved Legends & Lattes and I agreeeee the UK cover is so much better- I still really need to get Bookshops & Bonedust tho!!!

Thank you! 💕 I've come to love anything Hades & Persephone, and the art already has my heart, so I'm sure I'm going to love it!

The last hour trilogy by Cassandra Clare is (in my opinion) Amazing!!! If you really like that series I recommend The Infernal Devices, because it from the POV of their parents.

I definitely plan to read The Infernal Devices! According to her website, the timeline order is to read that before The Last Hours (which I didn't know before I bought that entire trilogy 🥴 lol), so I want to get the other series too, so I can FINALLY read something from her! 📚✨

that black on black book just does something to my brain its soo pretty I need that version of cruel prince!

I’m so excited you got the Caraval and the Once Upon a Broken Heart series! I absolutely love them. Still need to read A Curse for True Love but I plan on reading it in December. Also so glad you got the Serpent & Dove series. I read the first two and gave them both 5 stars. Still need to read Gods & Monsters. That edition of The Cruel Prince is stunning! Love it. The series is so good too.

Hello I highly recommend you read Casandra Clair’s other series before reading ( the last hours series) chain of gold and chain of iron and chain of thorns the other series is the infernal devices book 1: Clockwork Angel book2: clockwork prince Book:3 clockwork princess.

I’m not sure if you are aware, just in case you are not but the Cassandra Clare books are like a multiverse, so you should read the series mostly in order so that you don’t get confused the first series in the shadow hunters verse is the mortal instruments series, then the infernal devices, the dark artifices and then the last hours series 🫶
