Throne of glass is amazing. I only read the first one cause, here in Argentina, the second book is sold out both in spanish and english - at least until next month when they import some more. I'm currently reading the second book of the Shatter me trilogy and, so far, I'm loving it. I think you'll really enjoy them.
I honestly have to say that Vampire Academy (and Bloodlines) is one of my all time favourite series. I read it throughout high school/cegep so its one of those comfort reads whenever I pick it back up. Also, don't let anyone spoil it for you, obviously.
I'm currently reading The Name of the Wind and I'm loving it, it's so worth diving into despite the whole series not being out yet. I'm finding that just reading it and savouring it is really enjoyable. It's a keeper! Also, whatever is on your lips looks beautiful 💄
Outlander is so amazing it is so worth any time spent on it. I love how big they are because then I get to be with the characters more it is the best I am obsessed have read through the series three times you will love it! And the wheel of time is also so damn good I am reading the series through for the second time it is just so well written and the story is so good you wont regret reading it! It has fourteen books total in it
I just love how honest your book recommendations are!! I feel like everyone's raving about books that aren't 'that' good. So I really appreciate your channel!
The Wheel of Time is maybe my favorite book series of all time! The second book was the slowest for me, but the rest of them are amazing! I'm currently reading the Stormlight Archives series by Brandon Sanderson. Mistborn is next on my to read list. Can't wait for you to read them!
I just finished Throne of Glass and thought it was pretty good! 😍 Shatter Me and Vampire Academy are both sooo good 💕 definitely read the two novellas in the Shatter Me series , the one novella after the firsts book will make you understand a certain character better! 😊
Oh girl, you need to get on to reading the Infernal Devices stat! I am not kidding when I say that it is one of the most well put together and satisfying trilogies out there right now in the YA genre. It will make you laugh, cry, want to throw your book across the room, and that ending was something else!
I have the unpopular opinion of hating the shatter me series. I felt like it was cheesy and unpredictable, I didn't like any of the male characters and the main female character was particularly likeable. To top that off I didn't like the plot either haha. Throne of Glass is worth reading, but along with most people I think the most recent book was disappointing.
Infernal devices is way to good It may take you about 200 pages to get into the first book but you'll fall in love with the characters and story after that, the second and third book does make you cry. Definitely a must read👌🏻
Vampire Academy was my favorite book series as a teen! I made all my friends read the series and they became obsessed too. The characters in it are amazing! I cried when I finished the last book because I was so attached.
The Raven Boys is MY favourite serie of all time!! It's just beautifully written and you fall in love with the characters. It stayed with me a long time after reading it. I actually read it thrice! SO good!!
I'm in the middle of reading The Remnant Chronicle series, just started the second one actually and I love it! The guessing game in the first one keeps you addicted. As for Throne of Glass series, it's my favorite series, yeah some of the books aren't as good as the first 3 but it all makes sense for Celaena's journey in the end. They're action packed and keep you glued to the book so definitely worth the read.
The Infernal Devices are AMAZING. i read it before starting TMI actually! it helps you love TMI even more, and the story is fantastic, i highly recommend actually reading them before continuing on with TMI at all!
and of course Throne of Glass is my absolute favorite series so i 100% recommend it 😂🙌🏾 i am one of the fans that is obsessed, so i personally wasn't disappointed with any of the books
I have to read all of those as well so you've got company. I hear awesome things about the infernal devices series though so I'd recommend catching up with the Mortal Instruments and starting there. I intend to start the Mortal Instruments next month.
I can so relate to not reading a book that you know you'll love and just postponing it. I ALWAYS do that! I keep such books on my table, look at them and feel happy. it's like I am keeping a happy time stored in a book and no matter what happens in the future that happy time will always be there for me t go to. I know I dont make much sense but yup I do save books that I know I'll love.
You should finish the Cassandra Clare books, they're amazing, i swear you'd love it. Read the third of the TMI, then the TID and then the final three books of the TMI series. The final book of each it so worth it! Please don't give up on them☺️
Omg Throne of Glass is such an amazing series. Sarah J Maas has such beautiful writing that you'll love. It's a series that I think gets better with each book
Em, when you read the infernal devices, you should read them in the order they were published (to avoid spoilers). Before the very last TMI book, read the infernal devices trilogy
You have to read the name of the wind. It's sooooo good, tho I understand the struggle of waiting for the third book so you should probably wait and when you want to feel totally overwhelmed by a book, read it. It's my ultimate favorite book, it's really good!!! And you need to read outlander too , it's also one of my favorite series. The series is huge but while you're reading it, the books will feel small because once you start, you just can't stop and you just want more and more.
The Eye of the World was really interesting! I haven't finished the series, but definitely plan to eventually. There are some other similar books that were also fantastic
I'm glad to see I'm not the only booktuber that hasn't read some the more popular series! I'll be starting Throne if Glass soon. As far as Outlander goes... you can definitely read those slowly. They're fantastic books, but they take a lot out of you. It's a.nice Fall time read I think. Good luck choosing where to begin, there are so many that seem so good!
I loved Vampire Academy and The Mortal Instruments! I have the Infernal Devices but I haven't read them yet. I push back reading books that I'm super excited about, too! It's like I'm too caught up in the excitement about the book that I don't want to read it in case it's not as exciting as I made it out to be in my head. Guess I better get over that because that means I have quite a few books that I need to read! ❤️❤️
I feel the same way about books you're excited for! Sometimes I just keep pushing them off but I don't know why I do it. The first Outlander book, in my opinion, was really good and I don't remember it being slow. Another historical fiction series I think you might enjoy is the Veronica Speedwell mysteries by Deanna Raybourn. The second one comes out in January, the first is quite short (300 pages) but I really loved it and can't wait for the next one!!
I would definitely recommend the Infernal Devices. The trilogy is always amazing no matter how many times you read it. Also the Raven Cycle and the Throne of Glass series are great too.
Vampire Academy and Bloodlines are both excellent series! I don't know what they were thinking when they did the covers for the Vampire Academy series. Even Richelle Mead has said on her website that she has no idea who some of the people on the covers are supposed to be (she had no say in the design). I just got the 10th anniversary edition of the first Vampire Academy book in the mail today and I'm so stoked to read the new mini stories that come with it!
i'm currently reading throne of glass and i am absolutely loving it!! i refused to read it for so long because i didn't think i would, but omg it's definitely worth it
I LOVED the infernal devices. I read the TMI series first and then started on TID. It is my fav trilogy. And I need to re-read it soon. It has the most perfect ending you cannot imagine how satisfieing it was. ♥
I've been meaning to read The Wheel of Time series forever, but the length really is intimidating. My brother loves it and highly recommends it. He also has almost all of them signed. I hope to get around to it at some point... I definitely became more interested once Brandon Sanderson took over writing after Robert Jordan passed away. I love Brandon Sanderson, and his hand being in it at all makes me feel like it will be worth the time.
The Infernal Devices was sooo good!! The ending is really heartbreaking. And you really need to read Throne of Glass!! It gets better as you go on, like the 5th book is sooo good! You also HAVE to read to A court of Thorn and Roses, the second book is probably the best books i've read this year!! And please tell me where you got your sweater from?! Its so pretty!!
I love vampire academy, I read it in high school and I was not a reader like I am now. I didn't even know about the spin off of Bloodlines until this video! Definitely going to look into that! I just finished Outlander and I loved it! I can understand how some people think the beginning is slow, but I enjoyed it all the way through
Oh man you're in for a ride, my friend. You should absolutely read The Throne of Glass series, I personally loved the 5th book. Also Mistborn, TID and The Kiss of Deception (I'm currently reading the last book in that series, soo good) are a must read!
I found the first book of The Infernal Devices for 1$ in a tiny bookshop near my university! So excited to start it! :) Do I really need to read TMI first?
I really liked TMI but Cassandra Clare writes continually in that world, and her other books in the Shadowhunter world are my favorites. It helps to know the characters and plotlines of TMI because they're referenced along the way.
for the infernal devices, you HAVE to read it! it is by far my favorite book series of all time, and yes, it does give you the feels😂 it is much more well written than tmi, because it was written later in her writing career. But keep reading tmi as well, because it gets sooo much better at City of Glass!!!
I have read Wheel of Time twice, at least all the pre-Sanderson books. It’s very good and there is no need to be intimidated. The first 3-5 books all work as standalone novels as well as part of a series. So you can read Eye of the World and not have to commit to the whole thing. The middle of the series becomes a very long middle, and as the books were coming out, it felt to many of us like Jordan had lost control of his world, and was mired in pointless detail. Then he seemed to find his way again with his last book or two, and then he died. Sanderson took over and I think he did a great job wrapping things up, and staying true to the series while at the same time winking at some of Jordan’s quirks. And, as only he does, Sanderson really thought through the implications of some of the magic that had been used before, and does really coo, things with it that Jordan never had though of (most obvious example is Jordan’s use of opening a portal to travel from one place to another. Sanderson has a field day with the implications of that.). Another plus, as a new reader and a lover of Sanderson, is that he kept a blog about the books as he re-read them in preparation for his writing. I think you would like.
THRONE OF GLASS IS SO AMAZING YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! i just finished empire of storms a few weeks ago after having picked up the other 4, i put off reading this series because i, like you, didn't wanna read it because it wasn't going to live up to the hype and the whole 'assassin' thing didn't really interest me but after the second book I WAS OBSESSED so please read this series soon so we can all discuss the masterpiece that is Sarah J. Maas' throne of glass!
looove Mistborn to the ends of the earth, hope you enjoy your time with Sanderson! and I would suggest pushing back the reading of the Name of the Wind because I absolutely love the series and the wait for the last book is killing me! You should start it when there's a confirmed publishing date ;)
I read the infernal devices before I read the mortal instruments and I loved it, It's one of the first series where I went on big rollercoaster of emotions but it was great! 👍🏻
name of the wind was amazing. it sucks that the third book hasn't come out yet but it's still worth reading the first two books just because they're that good. infernal devices series is sooo much better than the mortal instruments! would def recommend TID over TMI. throne of glass is also amazing, but some people hate the series after the first three books or so - personally, i care too much about the characters to not continue to read the series.
Okay how did I not know you had a booktube channel ?? This is amazing ! Also Mistborn is my favorite series of all time, so excited for you to read it haha
I really liked The Infernal Devices, even though I didn't like the Mortal Instruments. I think the only time I read something that could be seen as a spoiler for The Mortal Instruments in TID is at the epilogue of the third book. Although maybe TMI will spoil you for TID? I don't know, I've only read the first 4 books of the Mortal Instruments. Happy reading!
you definitely should read VA!! I was a bit skeptical about it but I marathoned the whole thing last year in less than a week and I ended up completely obsessed!!
The Throne of Glass is one of those series that gets better with each book, yes there are some things about the series that are a bit "controversial" but it's still worth the read. I also haven't read the Shatter Me series it's on my tbr pile for next year (:
I just actually got Mistborn as well, heard great things about it and can't wait to start it! Furthermore I am a big fan of the Throne of glass series, there are some very interesting characters that I fell in love with. It's true that the 5th book wasnt my favourite but the 6th was great again imo:)
I would definitely recommend Court Of Thrones and Roses also by Sarah J Maas! It is AMAZING, the first book in the trilogy is okay but the second book is fantastic!! Character development is incredible and the plot has so many twists and is definitely a page turner! The third and last book comes in May and I cannot wait! :) happy reading ❤️
I prefer the outlander book to the tv series but the tv series is good. I've only read the first book and I'm fine with not continuing. I much preferred infernal devices to the mortal instruments. I still haven't finished the mortal instruments.
The Throne of Glass series is an amazing series to me. The world is fantastic and I love the character development. Just an amazing story overall. I definitely see why it is not for everyone but it is at least worth it to give it a chance.
Vampire Academy is really amazing, it's not as fluffy and light as it seems. The second book was my favorite. I agree the covers are horrible but the romance doesn't have a big place and the universe and plot are pretty dark. I've read the first three books of Bloodlines and I really like it too because it follows characters I love. So I really recommend it :)
Kendal Bailey I loved the first Divergent book and I hated the third book. I always tell my friends that the first one is totally worth the read and just to skip the other two
Move the infernal devices and throne of glass to the top of your list!! I actually LOVED empire of storms! The book transitions from YA to new adult and some people were not happy about that but I found it pretty natural since our characters are getting older.
For Outlander, I read about half way through the book and then started watching a few episodes of the series. it definitely helped me get through the book because i wanted to know what happens next.
You actually don't have to read the Mortal Instruments series to read the Infernal Devices. Cassandra Clare just wrote them in that order you mentioned. But the last book in the TMI series includes spoilers for the TID series. The TID series is one of my absolute favourites! The TMI series gets better with each book in my opinion.
I read Outlander, and I really loved it, but I get what you mean about it being a commitment. It is pretty slow paced and descriptive, but that's something I enjoy. The writing is really beautiful! And I felt like the book had great plot twists, kickass characters, romance, and action scenes. It's definitely not a YA though. There are graphic scenes both in terms of violence and sex. Because it was so long, I was actually mentally exhausted after reading it though, so I've resolved myself to leaving a year between each book.
I know lots of people like more the previous covers for Vampire academy, but the series are just amazing (just love it). However the Bloodline series I enjoyed but did not love it because a certain character (Read the VA first). Also read the Infernal Devices , you will love it ( I stooped reading TMI after the 2nd book and read the devices and just loved it, and had to read after the TMI because I wanted to see more about some characters from the Infernal ). Also is a good idea to read TMI and Infernal Devices in the order that have been published. Have the same problem with a series that I love but it connects with another series and in total there will be 40 books , it really intimidating (they are 4-60 pages books); and about the Throne of Glass (read only first book) I got spoiled and do not really want to continue anymore. Shatter Me I just love it, only read the trilogy not the novel, people have said I do not miss much.
I am on the third book of the Throne of Glass series and I absolutely love it! I'm at the point in the series where I can see how some people would drop off and not care to finish, but I still think it's worth checking out! I wouldn't say Vampire Academy is a light fluffy series as I cried too many times, but it is a good one to check out! I find the series as a whole to be one of my favorites. I started Bloodlines (the spin-off) but I didn't get past the second book. It just wasn't as good as the original.
for Outlander, I'm among those who thought the beginning was too slow paced and gave up but I'll try again soon. I live in Scotland's Highlands this year so I kind of have to read them haha
YOU HAVE TO READ VAMPIRE ACADEMY !! I had the exact same thoughts and eventually gave it a shot very hesitantly but ended up loving it and reading the spin off series bloodlines !
THRONE OF GLASS is my life!! and if you fall in love with the series you will be introduised to the magnificent fandom that this series and A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES have both !!!
Vampire Academy is so worth it, seriously! It is very addictive :) Regarding the Mortal Instruments series, it gets better with the third book, that's for sure. I really recommend you give that one a try to get more into it! The Remnant Chronicles is so good, I have read the first two books in the trilogy and I am looking forward to the third!
I haven't read a lot of these either, but out of the ones I have read, I would say definitely read TID (waaaaay better than TMI), at least the first book of outlander (I loved the first one but I read book 2 and 3 and lost interest), the Remnant Chronicles, the Throne of Glass series, and the Raven Cycle. They're all so good!!
First off start off with Throne of Glass!!! That was the first YA series for me and I LOVE IT! And then you have to read Cassandra Clare the series will make you feel like a Shadow Hunter and then last I say Misborn bc I heard awesome reviews and I'm about to order it right now. lol
I just finished Mistborn. That book. IT IS AMAZING. The world building, the characters, the plot... everything. I'm now starting on The Wells of Ascension. Brandon Sanderson's writing is so enjoyable!!! Once you start the trilogy you HAVE to finish it. I advise you just finish the mistborn trilogy before the other books you have. ;)
omg,PLEASE READ THRONE OF GLASS SERIES! they go really fast and there is a prequel too(its 3 novellas in one book). I understand why people are not happy with the last one,but they are still a wonderful world that I enjoyed being part of.
I havent read the vampire academy series yet too, and I plan to marathon the series this fall before this year ends! Because so many people said it is so good and it's popular too.
I read the Name of the Wind and a bit of the second book in my mother language (Portuguese) and I freaking fell in love. Now I really want to re-read in english but I too have been putting it off because the third book is taking forever to come out, and I hate it because I loved the first book. I'm currently reading City of Glass and I'll be reading Clockwork Angel next and the rest in the publishing order. I'm not exactly new to reading but I'm new to reading in english so I haven't read basically any of the books you talked about too (except Name of the Wind, but since I want to re-read it in english I'm counting it xD)
The only books I have read that you mentioned are The Infernal Devices (and yes, I would absolutely recommend them) and the first two books in The Remnant Chronicles (also would definitely recommend). This video made me feel bad for all the books I haven't read yet lol. We're in this together!
You should read Throne of Glass, it's amazing, and even though is a long series is soo good, and you never know what to expect from them.. And Shatter me, is a good one.. If you read the novelas, it helps you to better understand the characters.
I love Throne of Glass and most of the series! I feel like everyone who has read them they all have one that is there least favorite and mine is the third one Heir of Fire but I have yet to really read the most current one. I read Shatter Me and Unravel Me (books one and two) last month and loved them! Definitely check them out soon!!
Bloodlines was a good spin off, and totally think it's worth it! And I think the Infernal Devices much more than the Mortal Instruments. It's very very much worth the read! As for Throne of Glass I'm one of the people who started off loving the series and still loves it. It does change a lot from the first book to the most recent, which I think is one of the reason some people are turned off from it. Personally think it's worth a go to see for yourself. Can't really comment on Shatter Me. I tried to sit down and read it either late last year or early this year and just couldn't get into it no matter how hard I tried to.
The Infernal Devices is AMAZING! Much better than the Mortal Instruments. You have to read them. Also definitely read Throne of Glass, it's AMAZING as well. Throne of Glass and The Infernal Devices are 2 of my all time favorite series, I would definitely suggest starting with those. Vampire Academy gets better as the series goes on, I didn't love the first book but it gets much better. I need to read Mistborn, The Name of The Wind, Shatter Me trilogy, and Outlander. I really liked Kiss of Deception but I haven't continued with the series yet.
I haven't finished Wheel of Time yet, but I've loved what I've read so far! Eye of the World was such a sloooow start for me, but once you get through the first 5 chapters it picks up and it is so good! I think I made it to book 10 before I lost steam. I really need to finish it. I've been working on it for, like, 10 years. 😳 I think it's a series that you can read other books between. So if you're loving it but it's just too much, pick up another book and come back to WoT later.
The Raven Cycle is sooo good, one of my favourites of all time. And The Infernal Devices is definitely better then TMI, I recommend it to people who couldn't get into TMI it's just better imo.
Have you heard of the Sword of Truth series? It's a rough one (~12 books) however the first book is really really good. You can basically read it as a one shot out of the series. I really recommend it!
I love Outlander but I really like the audio book. Davina Portor does an amazing job. The series does get slow at points and I think it was about the third book that I got really annoyed with one of the characters but that was just a part of it. It's a good series to take your time with and just savor it
You should really read Vampire Academy (and Bloodlines). I like the Mortal Instruments more than the Infernal Devices but they're both really good. You should read TID before reading book 4, 5 and 6 of TMI. Then you should read all the other books by Cassandra Clare that are set in the Shadowhunters universe. You'll love it! No other author finishes their series as awesome as Clare does it.
Congrats on your(s) channel(s)! It would be nice to create a kind of a book club. For example, you introduce a book that you would like to read and a month later you do a video with your thoughts about it after having read it. "The book of the month serie" Your subscribers can read it too and see if we share the same opinion. It might be fun, I think... Just an idea ☺️

Does anyone else think that the girl on the cover of the vampire academy looks like Angelina Jolie!
I always think that whenever I see that cover XD. Look so same that I almost believed she was Angelina Jolie when I first saw it...
It actually remind me of the actress that plays Laurel Lance on Arrow.
NikitaSolaya Yes! I thought it was Angelina Jolie years ago when I first saw it, haha.
NikitaSolaya that what I think every time I see those covers! I really like the newer editions better.
Throne of glass is amazing. I only read the first one cause, here in Argentina, the second book is sold out both in spanish and english - at least until next month when they import some more.
I'm currently reading the second book of the Shatter me trilogy and, so far, I'm loving it.
I think you'll really enjoy them.
I honestly have to say that Vampire Academy (and Bloodlines) is one of my all time favourite series. I read it throughout high school/cegep so its one of those comfort reads whenever I pick it back up. Also, don't let anyone spoil it for you, obviously.
OUTLANDER IS AMAZING!!!
Read the book first.
So so good.
I'm currently reading The Name of the Wind and I'm loving it, it's so worth diving into despite the whole series not being out yet. I'm finding that just reading it and savouring it is really enjoyable. It's a keeper! Also, whatever is on your lips looks beautiful 💄
Definitely read Name of the Wind - Patrick Rothfuss
Vampire Academy, The Infernal Devices, and The Raven Boys are absolutely worth it. Especially the last two.
Outlander is so amazing it is so worth any time spent on it. I love how big they are because then I get to be with the characters more it is the best I am obsessed have read through the series three times you will love it! And the wheel of time is also so damn good I am reading the series through for the second time it is just so well written and the story is so good you wont regret reading it! It has fourteen books total in it
I just love how honest your book recommendations are!! I feel like everyone's raving about books that aren't 'that' good. So I really appreciate your channel!
Vampire Academy definitely worth the read the series gets better as you go
The Wheel of Time is maybe my favorite book series of all time! The second book was the slowest for me, but the rest of them are amazing! I'm currently reading the Stormlight Archives series by Brandon Sanderson. Mistborn is next on my to read list. Can't wait for you to read them!
WoT is by far the best!
You should definitely read the Infernal Devices series because it is soooo good and you will cry in the end.
THRONE OF GLASS. It's just SO amazing!!!
The Throne of Glass series is amazing. So is The Infernal Devices, however personally I prefer The Mortal Instruments more than The Infernal Devices.
I hated TID so I'm with you about TMI being the better series, hands down!
I just finished Throne of Glass and thought it was pretty good! 😍 Shatter Me and Vampire Academy are both sooo good 💕 definitely read the two novellas in the Shatter Me series , the one novella after the firsts book will make you understand a certain character better! 😊
The Outlander series is SO fantastic. You have to read it. The author Diana Gabaldon is absolutely brilliant. Watch some of her interviews online.
Oh girl, you need to get on to reading the Infernal Devices stat! I am not kidding when I say that it is one of the most well put together and satisfying trilogies out there right now in the YA genre. It will make you laugh, cry, want to throw your book across the room, and that ending was something else!
I have the unpopular opinion of hating the shatter me series. I felt like it was cheesy and unpredictable, I didn't like any of the male characters and the main female character was particularly likeable. To top that off I didn't like the plot either haha.
Throne of Glass is worth reading, but along with most people I think the most recent book was disappointing.
Zakiya Taylor i absolutely agree, i liked Shatter me, but Unite me was horrible😪
Infernal devices is way to good
It may take you about 200 pages to get into the first book but you'll fall in love with the characters and story after that, the second and third book does make you cry. Definitely a must read👌🏻
Vampire Academy was my favorite book series as a teen! I made all my friends read the series and they became obsessed too. The characters in it are amazing! I cried when I finished the last book because I was so attached.
The Raven Boys is MY favourite serie of all time!! It's just beautifully written and you fall in love with the characters. It stayed with me a long time after reading it. I actually read it thrice! SO good!!
I'm in the middle of reading The Remnant Chronicle series, just started the second one actually and I love it! The guessing game in the first one keeps you addicted.

Vampire Academy is super good!!! I read it when I was younger and I actually thought the covers weren't that bad lol
The shatter me series is my all time favorite ❤️ I hope you enjoy them!
Read TOG! EoS did silently kill me (and make me cry for 10 minutes) but it was so amazing!
I can so relate to not reading a book that you know you'll love and just postponing it. I ALWAYS do that! I keep such books on my table, look at them and feel happy. it's like I am keeping a happy time stored in a book and no matter what happens in the future that happy time will always be there for me t go to. I know I dont make much sense but yup I do save books that I know I'll love.
the raven circle is a must! totally worth the read
Mistborn is awsome!! I listened to it on audible & I'm OBSESSED.
You should finish the Cassandra Clare books, they're amazing, i swear you'd love it. Read the third of the TMI, then the TID and then the final three books of the TMI series. The final book of each it so worth it! Please don't give up on them☺️
I'll give them another try! :)
Omg Throne of Glass is such an amazing series. Sarah J Maas has such beautiful writing that you'll love. It's a series that I think gets better with each book
Em, when you read the infernal devices, you should read them in the order they were published (to avoid spoilers). Before the very last TMI book, read the infernal devices trilogy
You have to read the name of the wind. It's sooooo good, tho I understand the struggle of waiting for the third book so you should probably wait and when you want to feel totally overwhelmed by a book, read it. It's my ultimate favorite book, it's really good!!! And you need to read outlander too , it's also one of my favorite series. The series is huge but while you're reading it, the books will feel small because once you start, you just can't stop and you just want more and more.
The Eye of the World was really interesting! I haven't finished the series, but definitely plan to eventually. There are some other similar books that were also fantastic
I'm glad to see I'm not the only booktuber that hasn't read some the more popular series! I'll be starting Throne if Glass soon. As far as Outlander goes... you can definitely read those slowly. They're fantastic books, but they take a lot out of you. It's a.nice Fall time read I think. Good luck choosing where to begin, there are so many that seem so good!
I loved Vampire Academy and The Mortal Instruments! I have the Infernal Devices but I haven't read them yet.
I push back reading books that I'm super excited about, too! It's like I'm too caught up in the excitement about the book that I don't want to read it in case it's not as exciting as I made it out to be in my head. Guess I better get over that because that means I have quite a few books that I need to read! ❤️❤️
I feel the same way about books you're excited for! Sometimes I just keep pushing them off but I don't know why I do it. The first Outlander book, in my opinion, was really good and I don't remember it being slow. Another historical fiction series I think you might enjoy is the Veronica Speedwell mysteries by Deanna Raybourn. The second one comes out in January, the first is quite short (300 pages) but I really loved it and can't wait for the next one!!
WAAAT. Not just the best beauty and swatch queen, she's a bookworm, too!!!
I would definitely recommend the Infernal Devices. The trilogy is always amazing no matter how many times you read it. Also the Raven Cycle and the Throne of Glass series are great too.
Vampire Academy and Bloodlines are both excellent series! I don't know what they were thinking when they did the covers for the Vampire Academy series. Even Richelle Mead has said on her website that she has no idea who some of the people on the covers are supposed to be (she had no say in the design). I just got the 10th anniversary edition of the first Vampire Academy book in the mail today and I'm so stoked to read the new mini stories that come with it!
i'm currently reading throne of glass and i am absolutely loving it!! i refused to read it for so long because i didn't think i would, but omg it's definitely worth it
I LOVED the infernal devices. I read the TMI series first and then started on TID. It is my fav trilogy. And I need to re-read it soon. It has the most perfect ending you cannot imagine how satisfieing it was. ♥
I've been meaning to read The Wheel of Time series forever, but the length really is intimidating. My brother loves it and highly recommends it. He also has almost all of them signed. I hope to get around to it at some point... I definitely became more interested once Brandon Sanderson took over writing after Robert Jordan passed away. I love Brandon Sanderson, and his hand being in it at all makes me feel like it will be worth the time.
The Infernal Devices was sooo good!! The ending is really heartbreaking. And you really need to read Throne of Glass!! It gets better as you go on, like the 5th book is sooo good! You also HAVE to read to A court of Thorn and Roses, the second book is probably the best books i've read this year!! And please tell me where you got your sweater from?! Its so pretty!!
I love vampire academy, I read it in high school and I was not a reader like I am now. I didn't even know about the spin off of Bloodlines until this video! Definitely going to look into that! I just finished Outlander and I loved it! I can understand how some people think the beginning is slow, but I enjoyed it all the way through
Oh man you're in for a ride, my friend. You should absolutely read The Throne of Glass series, I personally loved the 5th book. Also Mistborn, TID and The Kiss of Deception (I'm currently reading the last book in that series, soo good) are a must read!
Please please please read The Infernal Devices it's so much better than TMI It's totally worth it
and yes you will cry. a lot
I'll power through the 3rd TMI and then try it!! :)
I'm looking forward to hear what you think of it :)
Read Outlander! I have read the first one, working my way through the second book and omg i love it and I haven't seen the show yet
I found the first book of The Infernal Devices for 1$ in a tiny bookshop near my university! So excited to start it! :) Do I really need to read TMI first?
I feel the same way about name of the wind!!! It just sits there staring at me
I really liked TMI but Cassandra Clare writes continually in that world, and her other books in the Shadowhunter world are my favorites. It helps to know the characters and plotlines of TMI because they're referenced along the way.
for the infernal devices, you HAVE to read it! it is by far my favorite book series of all time, and yes, it does give you the feels😂 it is much more well written than tmi, because it was written later in her writing career. But keep reading tmi as well, because it gets sooo much better at City of Glass!!!
I have read Wheel of Time twice, at least all the pre-Sanderson books. It’s very good and there is no need to be intimidated. The first 3-5 books all work as standalone novels as well as part of a series. So you can read Eye of the World and not have to commit to the whole thing. The middle of the series becomes a very long middle, and as the books were coming out, it felt to many of us like Jordan had lost control of his world, and was mired in pointless detail. Then he seemed to find his way again with his last book or two, and then he died. Sanderson took over and I think he did a great job wrapping things up, and staying true to the series while at the same time winking at some of Jordan’s quirks. And, as only he does, Sanderson really thought through the implications of some of the magic that had been used before, and does really coo, things with it that Jordan never had though of (most obvious example is Jordan’s use of opening a portal to travel from one place to another. Sanderson has a field day with the implications of that.). Another plus, as a new reader and a lover of Sanderson, is that he kept a blog about the books as he re-read them in preparation for his writing. I think you would like.
THRONE OF GLASS IS SO AMAZING YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! i just finished empire of storms a few weeks ago after having picked up the other 4, i put off reading this series because i, like you, didn't wanna read it because it wasn't going to live up to the hype and the whole 'assassin' thing didn't really interest me but after the second book I WAS OBSESSED so please read this series soon so we can all discuss the masterpiece that is Sarah J. Maas' throne of glass!
looove Mistborn to the ends of the earth, hope you enjoy your time with Sanderson! and I would suggest pushing back the reading of the Name of the Wind because I absolutely love the series and the wait for the last book is killing me! You should start it when there's a confirmed publishing date ;)
I read the infernal devices before I read the mortal instruments and I loved it, It's one of the first series where I went on big rollercoaster of emotions but it was great! 👍🏻
name of the wind was amazing. it sucks that the third book hasn't come out yet but it's still worth reading the first two books just because they're that good.
infernal devices series is sooo much better than the mortal instruments! would def recommend TID over TMI. throne of glass is also amazing, but some people hate the series after the first three books or so - personally, i care too much about the characters to not continue to read the series.
I'll probably end up reading it before the third book comes out... I'll probably wait a bit longer though! :P
Okay how did I not know you had a booktube channel ?? This is amazing ! Also Mistborn is my favorite series of all time, so excited for you to read it haha
Throne of glass is fantastic
I really liked The Infernal Devices, even though I didn't like the Mortal Instruments. I think the only time I read something that could be seen as a spoiler for The Mortal Instruments in TID is at the epilogue of the third book. Although maybe TMI will spoil you for TID? I don't know, I've only read the first 4 books of the Mortal Instruments. Happy reading!
you definitely should read VA!! I was a bit skeptical about it but I marathoned the whole thing last year in less than a week and I ended up completely obsessed!!
THE INFERNAL DEVICES IS THE BEST THING EVER. IT'S MY ALL TIME FAVORITE TRILOGY. WILL HERONDALE IS EVERYTHING
Will is life goals xD
its a great series, and i adore will
Yuck, I hated TID! Nothing good whatsoever from my POV! TMI is SOO much better.
The Throne of Glass is one of those series that gets better with each book, yes there are some things about the series that are a bit "controversial" but it's still worth the read. I also haven't read the Shatter Me series it's on my tbr pile for next year (:
I just actually got Mistborn as well, heard great things about it and can't wait to start it! Furthermore I am a big fan of the Throne of glass series, there are some very interesting characters that I fell in love with. It's true that the 5th book wasnt my favourite but the 6th was great again imo:)
I would definitely recommend Court Of Thrones and Roses also by Sarah J Maas! It is AMAZING, the first book in the trilogy is okay but the second book is fantastic!! Character development is incredible and the plot has so many twists and is definitely a page turner! The third and last book comes in May and I cannot wait! :) happy reading ❤️
I prefer the outlander book to the tv series but the tv series is good. I've only read the first book and I'm fine with not continuing. I much preferred infernal devices to the mortal instruments. I still haven't finished the mortal instruments.
The Throne of Glass series is an amazing series to me. The world is fantastic and I love the character development. Just an amazing story overall. I definitely see why it is not for everyone but it is at least worth it to give it a chance.
Vampire Academy is really amazing, it's not as fluffy and light as it seems. The second book was my favorite. I agree the covers are horrible but the romance doesn't have a big place and the universe and plot are pretty dark. I've read the first three books of Bloodlines and I really like it too because it follows characters I love. So I really recommend it :)
Definitely read the Divergent series and the Delirium series!!! Easy reads, but sooooooo good as well!
Kendal Bailey I love the delirium series!
Kendal Bailey I loved the first Divergent book and I hated the third book. I always tell my friends that the first one is totally worth the read and just to skip the other two
Move the infernal devices and throne of glass to the top of your list!! I actually LOVED empire of storms! The book transitions from YA to new adult and some people were not happy about that but I found it pretty natural since our characters are getting older.
For Outlander, I read about half way through the book and then started watching a few episodes of the series. it definitely helped me get through the book because i wanted to know what happens next.
You actually don't have to read the Mortal Instruments series to read the Infernal Devices. Cassandra Clare just wrote them in that order you mentioned. But the last book in the TMI series includes spoilers for the TID series. The TID series is one of my absolute favourites! The TMI series gets better with each book in my opinion.
I read Outlander, and I really loved it, but I get what you mean about it being a commitment. It is pretty slow paced and descriptive, but that's something I enjoy. The writing is really beautiful! And I felt like the book had great plot twists, kickass characters, romance, and action scenes. It's definitely not a YA though. There are graphic scenes both in terms of violence and sex. Because it was so long, I was actually mentally exhausted after reading it though, so I've resolved myself to leaving a year between each book.
I know lots of people like more the previous covers for Vampire academy, but the series are just amazing (just love it). However the Bloodline series I enjoyed but did not love it because a certain character (Read the VA first). Also read the Infernal Devices , you will love it ( I stooped reading TMI after the 2nd book and read the devices and just loved it, and had to read after the TMI because I wanted to see more about some characters from the Infernal ). Also is a good idea to read TMI and Infernal Devices in the order that have been published. Have the same problem with a series that I love but it connects with another series and in total there will be 40 books , it really intimidating (they are 4-60 pages books); and about the Throne of Glass (read only first book) I got spoiled and do not really want to continue anymore. Shatter Me I just love it, only read the trilogy not the novel, people have said I do not miss much.
I am on the third book of the Throne of Glass series and I absolutely love it! I'm at the point in the series where I can see how some people would drop off and not care to finish, but I still think it's worth checking out!
I wouldn't say Vampire Academy is a light fluffy series as I cried too many times, but it is a good one to check out! I find the series as a whole to be one of my favorites. I started Bloodlines (the spin-off) but I didn't get past the second book. It just wasn't as good as the original.
for Outlander, I'm among those who thought the beginning was too slow paced and gave up but I'll try again soon. I live in Scotland's Highlands this year so I kind of have to read them haha
YOU HAVE TO READ VAMPIRE ACADEMY !! I had the exact same thoughts and eventually gave it a shot very hesitantly but ended up loving it and reading the spin off series bloodlines !
THRONE OF GLASS is my life!! and if you fall in love with the series you will be introduised to the magnificent fandom that this series and A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSES have both !!!
Vampire Academy is so worth it, seriously! It is very addictive :) Regarding the Mortal Instruments series, it gets better with the third book, that's for sure. I really recommend you give that one a try to get more into it! The Remnant Chronicles is so good, I have read the first two books in the trilogy and I am looking forward to the third!
I haven't read a lot of these either, but out of the ones I have read, I would say definitely read TID (waaaaay better than TMI), at least the first book of outlander (I loved the first one but I read book 2 and 3 and lost interest), the Remnant Chronicles, the Throne of Glass series, and the Raven Cycle. They're all so good!!
First off start off with Throne of Glass!!! That was the first YA series for me and I LOVE IT! And then you have to read Cassandra Clare the series will make you feel like a Shadow Hunter and then last I say Misborn bc I heard awesome reviews and I'm about to order it right now. lol
I just finished Mistborn. That book. IT IS AMAZING. The world building, the characters, the plot... everything. I'm now starting on The Wells of Ascension. Brandon Sanderson's writing is so enjoyable!!! Once you start the trilogy you HAVE to finish it. I advise you just finish the mistborn trilogy before the other books you have. ;)
omg,PLEASE READ THRONE OF GLASS SERIES! they go really fast and there is a prequel too(its 3 novellas in one book). I understand why people are not happy with the last one,but they are still a wonderful world that I enjoyed being part of.
I havent read the vampire academy series yet too, and I plan to marathon the series this fall before this year ends! Because so many people said it is so good and it's popular too.
I read the Name of the Wind and a bit of the second book in my mother language (Portuguese) and I freaking fell in love. Now I really want to re-read in english but I too have been putting it off because the third book is taking forever to come out, and I hate it because I loved the first book.
I'm currently reading City of Glass and I'll be reading Clockwork Angel next and the rest in the publishing order.
I'm not exactly new to reading but I'm new to reading in english so I haven't read basically any of the books you talked about too (except Name of the Wind, but since I want to re-read it in english I'm counting it xD)
If I knew the book was coming out in a year or two it would be one thing... but not know makes me nervous haha
The only books I have read that you mentioned are The Infernal Devices (and yes, I would absolutely recommend them) and the first two books in The Remnant Chronicles (also would definitely recommend). This video made me feel bad for all the books I haven't read yet lol. We're in this together!
You should read Throne of Glass, it's amazing, and even though is a long series is soo good, and you never know what to expect from them.. And Shatter me, is a good one.. If you read the novelas, it helps you to better understand the characters.
Looove Wheel of Time!
I love Throne of Glass and most of the series! I feel like everyone who has read them they all have one that is there least favorite and mine is the third one Heir of Fire but I have yet to really read the most current one. I read Shatter Me and Unravel Me (books one and two) last month and loved them! Definitely check them out soon!!
Bloodlines was a good spin off, and totally think it's worth it! And I think the Infernal Devices much more than the Mortal Instruments. It's very very much worth the read!
As for Throne of Glass I'm one of the people who started off loving the series and still loves it. It does change a lot from the first book to the most recent, which I think is one of the reason some people are turned off from it. Personally think it's worth a go to see for yourself. Can't really comment on Shatter Me. I tried to sit down and read it either late last year or early this year and just couldn't get into it no matter how hard I tried to.
The Infernal Devices is AMAZING! Much better than the Mortal Instruments. You have to read them. Also definitely read Throne of Glass, it's AMAZING as well. Throne of Glass and The Infernal Devices are 2 of my all time favorite series, I would definitely suggest starting with those. Vampire Academy gets better as the series goes on, I didn't love the first book but it gets much better. I need to read Mistborn, The Name of The Wind, Shatter Me trilogy, and Outlander. I really liked Kiss of Deception but I haven't continued with the series yet.
The remnant chronicles is quite good too!
I haven't finished Wheel of Time yet, but I've loved what I've read so far! Eye of the World was such a sloooow start for me, but once you get through the first 5 chapters it picks up and it is so good! I think I made it to book 10 before I lost steam. I really need to finish it. I've been working on it for, like, 10 years. 😳 I think it's a series that you can read other books between. So if you're loving it but it's just too much, pick up another book and come back to WoT later.
Wheeling of Time is really good. Its just a lot to take in.
The Raven Cycle is sooo good, one of my favourites of all time. And The Infernal Devices is definitely better then TMI, I recommend it to people who couldn't get into TMI it's just better imo.
Have you heard of the Sword of Truth series? It's a rough one (~12 books) however the first book is really really good. You can basically read it as a one shot out of the series. I really recommend it!
I love Outlander but I really like the audio book. Davina Portor does an amazing job. The series does get slow at points and I think it was about the third book that I got really annoyed with one of the characters but that was just a part of it. It's a good series to take your time with and just savor it
You should really read Vampire Academy (and Bloodlines).
I like the Mortal Instruments more than the Infernal Devices but they're both really good. You should read TID before reading book 4, 5 and 6 of TMI. Then you should read all the other books by Cassandra Clare that are set in the Shadowhunters universe. You'll love it! No other author finishes their series as awesome as Clare does it.
Congrats on your(s) channel(s)! It would be nice to create a kind of a book club. For example, you introduce a book that you would like to read and a month later you do a video with your thoughts about it after having read it. "The book of the month serie" Your subscribers can read it too and see if we share the same opinion. It might be fun, I think... Just an idea ☺️
i haven't read any of these books either, but i have read the first book in three of the series you mentioned.
A court of thorns and roses trilogy is great! I'm trying to finish a court of mist and fury in time for the next one which is due out May next year
