i read the assassins blade first and i can 100% recommend. in my opinion it makes throne of glass and crown of midnight much more meaningful and exciting because you know the backstory. also everytime the plot from assassins blade was mentioned in the following books i got so emotional and i wouldn't have experienced this if i did another order.

I started with Assassins Blade and couldn’t imagine it any other way 10/10

@@laurengurskysame!! Have you figured out what you want to do!?😊

I just finished the teacher haha. And it was good, but not brilliant - I am excited to see what you'll think of it

Lots of these sound good, I’m excited to see what you think. My TBR (for now) includes: ▫️ The Sun Down Motel by Simone St. James ▫️Stormrise by Jillian Boehme ▫️Alice in Borderland, Vol. 1 ▫️Mislaid in Parts Half-Known by Seanan McGuire ▫️The Senator’s Wife by Liv Constantine I’d love to also get to Powerless by Lauren Roberts because I need to know if I agree with the hype 📚

i haven't heard of that one!

I loved Check & Mate, but I love Chess stories(mainly because of The Queen’s Gambit… book & adaptation)… It didn’t feel YA in some respects 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m literally less than an hour from finishing the audiobook for Just For the Summer(I paused to watch your video 😉) and I’m absolutely LOVING it…. Part of Your World is still my favorite and probably always will be(there’s a really nice tie-in to Part of Your World)
