Katie: I haven't read enough series *proceeds to talk about 67(!) series*
Girl that is impressive as hell!

[saylars]

so real that u had the least to say about ur absolute faves because u know they’re that good when they leave u speechless

[leoniereads]

Katie you have become one of my absolute favourite booktubers.🌸I absolutely love every single one of your videos and they bring me so much comfort. Watching this video was so much fun.💫

[TheatreLover-cr]

I totally get how you feel about once upon a broken heart! The first was a four star for me and the last two were five stars! I love Evangeline and Jacks so so much!

[AnaEDavis]

Hot take - I feel like real SJM girlies are few and far between. Her series are so different, I don't know many non-influencers who genuinely like all 3. I'm a TOG fanatic, but struggled to get through ACOTAR and don't have plans to pick up Crescent City🙃

[kaymay]

Katie you should read The Lunar Chronicles series by Marissa Meyer, those books are awesome 🫶🏾✨

[booksandteas]

oh my god i really love throne of glass and kingdom of the wicked. tog would be on my top tier. i so am sjm girly. but it was so fun to see how you ranked them. other than that, i 90% agree with how you rank the others. would like you to this every year though. its nice to see a recommendation in a different way. i dont want this video to end honestly, it was so so fun!

[mikulina]

Marissa Meyer is my guilty pleasure. I can’t help it I love every single one of her books. Especially the lunar chronicles which I am thinking of rereading.

[elizabethandrus]

Katie, I have only read one Fantasy, "A Fate Inked in Blood" and absolutely loved it. This is the video I have been looking for to help me choose a series to read. Your tier ranking videos are my favorite!

[macieleann]

have been waiting for this kind of video! have my phone on hand so i can write down recs. you’re one of the few i can trust for book recs especially fantasy recs 💚

[lilystoyanova]

wanted to thank you for all your videos, binging your content from the last 2 years kept me sane in my exam season!!
our tastes are very different a lot of the time, my top tier would have: The Raven Cycle, Ghosts of the Shadow Market, Skulduggery Pleasant, The Mortal Instruments, Pandora Hearts, D.Gray-man;
and my second tier: Daughter of Smoke and Bone, Carry On, The Emerald Atlas, The Dark Artifices, The Coldest Girl in Coldtown, Kuroshitsuji, Kaiju no.8;
my lowest tier would have to include: Gallant, Half Life, Throne Of Glass, Children of Blood and Bone, Shades of Magic, Howl's Moving Castle (I really like the film but not the book), and controversially Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries, The Infernal Devices and The Last Hours (I'm currently reading Chain of Thorns, and it's the only one of the series I'm genuinely enjoying)

[livyf.]

If you liked heartless I would definitely recommend reading the lunar chronicles. I haven't read Heartless so I can't compare it but the lunar chronicles are retelling books that are super unique and they also have great characters!

[Elsa_ingenue]

we have vastly different taste (some of my favourite books of all time are in your meh category and some that I DNFed are in your all time favourites!) but I really enjoy hearing about what you love or don’t in a book! and I completely agree that Vicious by VE Schwab is one of the most excellent fantasies!

[bookishbowen]

Prison Healer series is one of my all time favourite YA fantasy series. I don’t read that much YA anymore but I was obsessed with that series when I read it last year

[pallavi]

Her top tier series :
Infernal devices
Starless sea
Half a soul
Emily Wilde's encyclopedia of faeries
Strange the dreamer
Vicious
The way of kings

[Kittyzero]

Ohh tier ranking every fantasy series fun. The only books I would change would be Tress of the Emerald Sea and Vampire Academy to so fun! Six Crimson Cranes would be almost, but not quite.

[jessicatammreads]

I’m a new subscriber and wow… we have pretty much the exact same taste. 😳 I would have ranked these almost the exact same way. There’s a couple listed I haven’t read yet… I now trust you for book recs so I’m adding these to my TBR asap!

[emmaskapetis]

This was so fun to watch. I've actually read most of the books in your worst section lol and at least one of each in the other categories.

[MariasNook]

Just the fact that the last category is called "who greenlighted this?" is so funny to me, because yes, that's exactly what some books feel like 💀
