Impressive lost. I read and loved Turtles All the Way Down but those others I haven’t. Sarah J Maas is kind of on my radar though.

Thank you! Yes, that was a really good book. Ooo yeah, Sarah J Maas is a wonderful author! Her books are super addictive- although a lot of them have very similar characters/ concepts. The one I read this month was really well developed though!

I really enjoyed Turtles all the way down when I first read it. It’s been so long I think it’s about time for a reread.
