Sarah J. Maas is the author of some of my all time favorite book series. She has written A Court of Thorns and Roses, Throne of Glass and Crescent City, all of which I have read in their entirety and love. Here’s my issue, the last book she released was the second book in the Crescent City series, House of Sky and Breathe and it ended in perhaps the biggest cliffhanger that I have ever read in my entire 19 years of living. (Spoiler alert from this point on, just so you’re warned) This woman had the audacity to separate Hunt and Bryce, the two main characters, at the very end of the book while putting them both through extreme pain. She then has Bryce escape through a portal in an admittedly very confusing chase scene, to disappear into what she thinks is Hel. When then figure out alongside Bryce that she is not in Hel, but in Prythian, the main world for the A Court of Thorns and Roses Series. The final line of the books is Rhysand introducing himself to Bryce and then boom, book ends, just like that. When I tell y’all that I wanted to throw the book across the room. Did I do that? No. I just stared at the page in disbelief. The way I have had the suspicion that all of her worlds are connected for years and now it’s being confirmed? Iconic. I have never been more excited for the next book in a series in my life. I personally am hoping that SJM doesn’t only combine A Court of Thorns and Roses and Crescent City, but also throws in Throne of Glass. I feel like there are a few characters (Mannon and Dorian) that didn’t quite get a clear ending, and it would be incredible to see more of them. I also think it’ll be interesting to see how Mrs.Maas combines the futuristic setting and technology of Crescent City, with the medieval and fantasy setting of her other two series. There are so many intersting ways to take this crossover and I cant wait to read all about it!
All my love,
