House of Sky and Breath

While the series in general took me a minute and a few tries to get sucked in, I got totally sucked in about 1/2 way though Book 1, jumped right into Book 2, though my interest waned a tiny bit at the very beginning, but then I got sucked right back in and finished Book 2 within a couple of days. Maas just has a way with making the characters so relatable and even though I have to roll my eyes at times at some of the ACOTAR “smut” and inability to name the parts. Crescent City does not hold back and is refreshing in that sense. (If you know, you know - just say “the words” already...)

The fantasy portion is so well done, and I cannot say much more for fear of giving things away, but damn I am so in awe of the twists, turns and the world created by Maas, once again!
