A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J Maas

The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty
The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna
Worth the hype?!
Every year I am definitely influenced by social media to pick up certain books that are super popular or just generally hyped! And for some reason all the girlies have been gravitating towards romance, or at least that’s whats coming up on my FYP over the last year or so. I have 5 books that I thought were worth the hype and another five that I didn’t quite like or understand as much as the masses…
Ice Planet Barbarian’s by Ruby Dixon – this was just a fun time, it’s silly, smutty and a fast paced!
Zodiac Academy by Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti– This was super long, descriptions were confusing, I was bored the whole time and I hated all the characters
The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood – this was fresh, dramatic and Adam was everything!
Twisted Love by Ana Huang – forgettable, boring & I didn’t feel any chemistry!
Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree – a cozy, warm, great book with low stakes with a lil romance sprinkled in!
The Fine Print by Lauren Asher – Just ok… don’t really understand how hard people stan this series?!
A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J Maas – I am definitely a few years behind the hype for this but one of her best books I think!
Icebreaker by Hannah Grace – another ok one.. was wayyy too long!
Book Lovers by Emily Henry – my favourite Emily Henry book for sure, this was a perfect read for me!
The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas – another unnecessary long book with unlikeable characters!
