There's a lot of buzz for rom-com book all over tik-tok right now, but fantasy has started to creep its way into the stream. You've probably heard about Sarah J. Maas' multiple fantasy series, so these names should sound familiar. Throne of Glass. A Court of Thorns and Roses. Crescent City. To me, fantasy is the real escape. There's a world you've never even known between the lines of those pages. This is my love letter to Sarah J. Maas and her characters.
Maas writes strong heroines, and insanely beautiful love stories. Her characters have touched me in a way no other author has been close to. Her stories are action packed and carry so much weight. There are truly no boring moments in her novels. They read like a movie and her imagery has me imagining full scenes so easily. If there is one fantasy author I recommend, it is always Sarah.
My favorite of her three stories has to be Throne of Glass. I read the series during a really hard time in my life, and it allowed me true escape. The world of Erelea is vast with so many lovable, and some not so tolerable, characters. Aelin's story especially touched me, and her romances had me enthralled, but her true acts of heroism were inspiring. I personally believe that I will never love a character as much as I love her. I reread her story at least once a year; when I need an escape, when I'm feeling sad, when I'm feeling lonely... Even after rereading the story so many times, it still thrills me, still surprises me.
If you're looking for an action-packed story with incredible characters and feelings, I recommend you look up Maas at your local bookstore. Thank you Sarah for changing my life, and making me fall in love with reading again.
