Diving Into ‘A Court of Thorns and Roses’ World

I’ve been hearing a lot about the A Court of Thorns and Roses series lately. People are obsessed! I’m thinking about starting it but wanted to know—what makes it so special? Is it more romance, fantasy, or a mix? Also, are the characters and world-building really as good as everyone says? Would love some honest opinions before diving in!

If you’re curious about A Court of Thorns and Roses, you’re in for a treat! The blog here does a great job summarizing why the series is so popular: https://booksrun.com/blog/a-court-of-thorns-and-roses-series/ It’s a perfect mix of romance and fantasy, with richly developed characters and an immersive world. The first book starts slow, but by the second one (A Court of Mist and Fury), the story becomes absolutely gripping. The relationships, especially Feyre and Rhysand’s dynamic, are full of depth and growth. Plus, the series explores themes like resilience and self-discovery, which makes it relatable despite the fantastical setting. If you enjoy intricate world-building with a touch of drama and danger, you won’t be disappointed. What other fantasy series have you read?
