    ​@@kiaraaev you _can_ read six of crows before reading shadow and bone, but a lot of the time most people read shadow and bone first. just because it establishes the worldbuilding a bit more and helps you to better understand what's going on. i'd honestly say that six of crows is a better series than shadow and bone and more worth your time, but shadow and bone helps to lay the foundation of what the world is. it was really helpful for me to understand what the grisha orders are and how they work together. (these books tend to be very sink or swim with the descriptions of the world in general, but shadow and bone has a bit more description of the magic system.) six of crows also has (i believe) _very_ very minor shadow and bone spoilers, as it does take place a few years after the events of shadow and bone, but the plotlines are mostly separate. it's honestly up to you!

    i've wanted to see a cruel prince adaptation ever since i first read the books (which. granted. wasn't that long ago) but the thought of guillermo del toro directing it hadn't even crossed my mind until now!! EXCELLENT idea; 10/10. tbh i kinda want a cruel prince adaptation to be animated--by cartoon saloon specifically (the studio who made wolfwalkers, song of the sea, etc). granted, their movies tend to be kids' movies, but i would LOVE to see their take on a darker fae story (and they do have a darker movie called the breadwinner)! like seriously, a cartoon saloon rendition of elfhame would be GORGEOUS. not to mention, the underwater scenes in song of the sea would make me VERY eager to see their take on certain scenes in the wicked king. anyway, that's just my two cents on a hypothetical folk of the air adaptation! great video; some of these books i'd love to check out!

    Resist Me by Lauren Connoly is a grumpy-sunshine story, but SHE is the grumpy badass self-defense trainer with a shady past, and HE is the sunshine, dog-loving POC character, and I loved it. Totally recommend it.

    I LOVED the cruel prince so I'm so happy to see it in a high tier. It's a true enemies-to-lovers story (cardan and jude HATE each other at the start, it's so good), has a major focus on the politics of the fae, AND has a badass female protag while acknowledging that physical strength isn't the only way to stay strong and that actually it's not healthy to cope by killing people. I immediately went and bought both sequels after I finished it. Rewired my brain

    throne of glass have a very badass female character.Look, I read cruel prince first and was obsessed with jude.But then I read throne of glass and aelin (the fmc or throne of glass) stole my heart and since then no other fmc could top her.She is a very complex fmc.She is a badass who could kill people with bare hands and have deadly fire powers but she also loves to wear dresses and jewelries, dance at balls, loves chocolates, reading books, playing music, and cry while listening to music and oh she just have so much personality and her duality is admirable.The way she is a badass warrior but at the same time has lots of feminine qualities is something rare in books

    Throne of glass is also very diverse since its high fantasy.We have deadly witches that rides wyverns, we have deadly shapeshifters, we have assassins,fae and humans with magic.even healers play a huge role in this series.This series have lots of badass and strong characters and their teamwork and friendship is so endearing.Some of them are strong physically, some are strong with powers and some have no powers or strength at all but they contributes to the war with their intelligent and whatever support they could provide.This series is very dear to me because it shows that everyone contributes to something in the war.The war in this book is very emotional too😢

    Throne of glass has a very great enemies to lovers too (aelin and rowan).They hated each other at first.aelin said real nasty thing to rowan and then rowan punched her in the face.They were both forced to train with each other and during the training, rowan goes really hard on her and they always fought till they are both bloodied.They really hated each other to say the least😂.The thing is, they were both at their lowest at the time.They were drowning in their trauma and loss, and both are just too broken inside.But given the forced proximity, their relationship grew and they both HELPED EACH OTHER TO HEAL AND WALKED OUT FROM THE DARKNESS TOGETHER.thats why aelin and rowan is top tier to me because they are enemies to lovers with depth and actual growth + they healed each other.Not the typical enemies turned to lovers purely because of lust+attraction+obsession

    I found it so terrible it's very unlikely I'll ever pick up another book by Sally Rooney in my life. I hated the ridiculous link she drew between childhood abuse and being masochistic/sexually submissive, I hated how flat and unbelievable the characters were, I hated the writing style, I hated how it's all about drinking coffee, drinking wine, hanging out with people you don't like, having sex, being pretentious and doing nothing with your life while being slighty miserable but mostly apathetic. It was all tell don't show. It was not smart. There was no emotion or wisdom. I do not understand why people like it.
