    Feels good to finally be able to watch the spoiler sections. I just finished CC2 an hour ago and I cannot get over that ending! Now I finally know why everyone finds it crazy omg

  • @BookDrifter
    @BookDrifter Před 5 měsíci

    Woman.
    Your reactions are...Everything. 😆🤌🏼
    Your facial expressions! Felt them in my literal soul.
    I just found this video of yours today, even though I now see that you posted it a while back. (I'm a newb to the SJM world ...AND to the BookTube World tbh).
    So here I was, looking for review/recap distraction vids until CC3 dropped tonight...
    And I somehow stumbled upon your insanely relatable, in-real-time reaction review of the first two Crescent City novels.
    Gold. 🥇👏🏼 Absolute gold.
    "So like, if I have heart issues, I'm.. suing Sarah J Mass".
    😆 Same girl. Same.
    Honestly though, my fav reaction at the end was you ecstatically looking up, eyes wide, jaw dropped, only to say "PAINT."
    😂💀
    Iykyk.
    I need more of these in my life.

    I had bought this book last year and couldn't really get into it. recently I started listening to The Reading Hag Returns here on CZcams and started listening to Crescent City and just fell in love with the book and finally finished it. I think Bryce is my absolute favorite S.J. Maas character.

  • @taryndancer29

    I couldn’t agree MORE about the short summary on the back. I read it and then totally forgot it, and read the book a few months later. When *that event* happened I was like omg wow, and then I reread the summary and was like wow that’s stupid 😂

    Seriously I used to thought it was 300 pages book until I saw it in your intro. Now I'm questioning my decision to read it...

  • @min1705
    @min1705 Před rokem +3

    Oh my god I had the exact same thoughts as you did about both books. Both were 5 star reads for me but I definitely loved the first book more. But these books were the first and only Sarah J Maas books I have ever read so I didn't really feel the same about the ending of the second book that most people did. I think I was just mostly confused and intrigued and I feel like I'm missing out on a lot. But one of my reading plans for this year is to read TOG and ACOTAR, after which I plan on rereading both books in the Crescent City series. I've already bought a boxed set of TOG and can't wait to dive in to it.

    Do you listen to the book your reading as you read? Why the headphones?

    • @sarahlind24
      @sarahlind24 Před 11 měsíci +1

      They might just be noise-cancelling headphones

  • @rhayes8596
    @rhayes8596 Před rokem

    I really want to read these books but I haven't read the ACOTAR series yet :( Could anyone let me know if that's important or can I go straight into Cresent City? I have read the Throne of Glass series if that changes anything

    • @sangitas580
      @sangitas580 Před rokem

      Heyy I have a similar question. I have never read any of Sarah's books before. How is the TOG series?

    • @sarahlind24
      @sarahlind24 Před 11 měsíci

      I’ve never read the Acotar series but I’ve read TOG. I personally enjoyed Crescent City, even though it’s gotten a lot of hate. I just finished the first book about to read the second, but I’ve heard not great things about it. People are comparing a lot to ACOTAR but I’ve hear they’re really boring so I don’t have an interest in reading them. I did really enjoy the journey of TOG series but the end kind of felt rushed and disappointing for how long the last book was.

    • @Iamyogimom
      @Iamyogimom Před 4 měsíci

      You can not read crescent city before ACOTAR. This is super important
