"No Linda, they were not" I'M DEAD 😂

[Napynthe]

When I was coming out of a very long depression, ACOTAR was the first book I read in a long, long time. Years. I devoured the series in a few days. In ACOMAF, it says "Where all that color and light and texture had once dwelled, there was only a filthy prison cell". And as someone that had lost all creativity when my depression struck, I had never felt more seen. I'm now working on my own fantasy novel.

Hadn't read for fun since I was 16 but I picked up ACOTAR about 2 years ago at 28 years old and now I'm not only back into fantasy and romance but reading as a whole. Keep up the amazing work Sarah!

Sarah has re-ignited my imagination & love for reading I had when I was younger. And to see so many others pick up her books and feel the same way. It is so comforting and freeing to be an adult nerd who loves fantasy books. She is an incredible author. Her stories truly are a great escape into beautiful worlds. Thank you Sarah!🫶🏼✨🌙

Okay but the cut to her and her husband. Immediately noticed they look like Rhys and Feyre. Love that.

ACOTAR reignited my passion for reading that i had as a little girl and as someone who suffered so greatly from depression it was an incredible story that dealt with mental health and seriously brought me back

“No, Linda, they were not.” 😂 She’s so funny and relatable

[Mbooper]

4 more books on her mind. Ugh I can’t wait 😭💛👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

“For every Nesta out there——
Climb the Mountain.”

[lilmoka]

Gramma is our spirit animal! ADORE HER 😀Cheers to getting lost in more books for many years to come! 🥰

[ariannacortner]

I am absolutely enamoured by her books, I used to hate reading and now all I can ever think of is these books. I loved this video, Sarah is too funny, but I'm starved for any information regarding her or the next books and I need at least an hour video of this interview.

I am 49 and two years ago I began this journey when my 20 (at the time) year old daughter brought me ACOTAR and said, read this. She is a book lover who has 700 plus books in her library. I read it and was hooked. I immediately read the rest and as I finished the 4th book, ACOSF came out.
I felt sad it was over when I finished and in researching future books found TOG. A bit out of order but I read all the books in about 3 months. I have now read and reread them all. I can’t express how amazing the writing and stories are. It’s been so enjoyable!

[mauveghost]

"I have a terrible memory" proceeds to write THE MOST intricate series with the most amazing worlds and characters hahah this gives me hope 🤣 I love her so much

[freyastar]

We need book 6 of a court of thorns and roses.. I want Elaine story, Az story, mor story, and the war with the queen. There is still so much to be told.

[TheBookAllie]

I cannot explain how excited I am that the next book on her list is the next ACOTAR book 🙈

[kayleew]

I have every single one of her books. She’s amazing and it’s so awesome to actually hear this info. I’m so excited to read the new book

[umealorkamsiyochukwu]

Immediately I saw her in this interview. I screamed She looks exactly how I would have imagined ferye.

[JausTine]

I hope no one thinks these books are just for women (editors of this interview, I'm looking at you) A friend of mine mentioned they were reading ACOTAR and it brought me out of a 10+ year reading slump. Sarah Maas has become my favorite author, I love her worlds and interesting characters.

[castmemberadventures]

I discovered Sarah years ago with reading her throne of glass series! I’m currently reading her court of thornes and roses! She’s a crazy fast beautiful writer!! I personally think throne of glass is her TOP! Reading ACOTAR is kind of different for me but I’m slowly liking it so far :) I hear it gets good!

[katemurphy]

Yes I drove an hour this a.m. to the Bookstore to have House of Flame and Shadow in my hands and can start reading this evening 🙌🙌🙌
