I think I forgot to mention this at the beginning of the video, but this reading vlog is spoiler-free!!
Ahhh it would've been so cool if you did a spoiler section at the end of the vid so we could hear your thoughts on specific couples and characters!! 🥺
Begging you to please please please read Binding 13! You expressed interest in the book a few times before and based on your tastes I think you would LOVE it! It’s a sports romance (he’s a rugby player) and they meet on her first day at Tommen College when he kicks a ball and accidentally hits her in the back of the head and knocks her out which I like so cute and I SWEAR the romance will have you kicking and squealing in bed at 4AM in the morning. The characters are definitely the most lovable people on earth- honestly don’t think there’s a possibility that anyone could not root for Shannon (and all her brothers) and Johnny (and Gibsie). While it’s technically a YA book, me and most people wouldn’t really agree with that because the book does come with some pretty hefty trigger warnings (Shannon grows up in a very toxic and abusive household) and Johnny definitely has a lot of his own struggles too that I can’t say without spoiling but I swear despite all that they are the most amazing characters to read about.
Love you always,
Byeeee! ❤
It’s SO much more than just a fluffy sports romance though, so while there are some ridiculously funny scenes (aka. Gibsie and his cat’s explosive diarrhoea and higher-than-a-kite Johnny) please don’t go into it expecting it to be a sweet cute surface level thing because if you’re anything like me I promise you will be SOBBING.
throne of glass is my favorite series ever!! dorian and chaol are some of the biggest comfort characters to me, they've helped me so much and i couldn't even descibe how much i love dorian, he is the loml
I want to read it but I’m more of a murder mystery girl I am new reader so I’m have read missing Clarissa, agggtm series and now I’m in the middle of pretty dead queens but should I buy this series??
@@graciewannop4871 yess definitely! if you love fantasy you'll love it
i want to read this series sooo bad, im glad you flimed this videoo❤❤❤
Go go go!!!!!!!!!
I just finished Kingdom Of Ash, so this is perfect! I miss this series so much. It’s like I lost my friends, lol. 😭
Manon is definitely one of my favorite sjm characters EVER. As soon as she was introduced i was so invested in her storyline and I absolutely bawled during one moment of hers in particular (IYKYK). As the series progressed I sadly didn’t feel as invested as I did in the beginning, but manon really kept me from giving up on finishing it. I agree that assassins blade and throne of glass are very nostalgic to look back on. I think those two will always be my favorites in the series!!
Hi Ali! I'm reading the Throne of Glass series, too. I decided to read in release order and do the tandem read Empire of Storms and Tower of Down. Now I'm reading Crown of Midnight and I'm loving it so much! ❤
Isn’t that confusing because you’re reading the 5 and 6th book then reading the second book.
@@Thebookreader2 i think they're saying they WILL BE doing the tandem read, not that they've done it :)
@kirtiprajapati4000 Thanks, Yes... that's what I meant. Sorry, English is not my first language 🙈
@@birdyreader oh girl dw you didn't mess it up 🫶🏽
You are amazing for reading this series in a week! I am currently on Kingdom of Ash and I have been reading the series since late January!
SAME 😭😭😭😭
Ugh to be able to read this series for the first time again 😩💕 I didn’t do the tandem when I read this series and I feel like I had a bigger appreciation for each
You are such a ray of sunshine! I am in the middle of this series and you made me super excited to finish it 🥰
This is probably one of my fav series and I’m so glad you made this video 💕
so off topic but i love the way her cat is always with her when shes reading❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m planning to read this series soon and seeing your reactions makes me so excited to read it!
I was waiting for this vlog omg
Since watching your videos, I have been a really active and real reader, love you❤❤❤
I absolutely love your videos!! I need to read this series very soon 💞
this vlog was sm fun!
Im only a 12 year old but I LOVE READING and read really ahead of my age. So far I’ve read 55 books this year and I love watching your channel for motivation and recs! ❤
Me too! I turned 13 a few days ago and I’ve read 40 books this year 😊
Omg me too I just turned 13 love reading but I've am a slow reader so I've only read 23 books so far but my goal is 65 for the year so hopefully I get to it
@@AustinPotter-fk9of sameeeeee
55 books this year? It’s only April!! I wish I could read this quickly
tbh all I do is school and read 😅 I have a trash sleep schedule
I love you channel and videos so much including you book videos
I agree with you on Heir of Fire. There is one POV I didn’t care too much about and speed through most of the time lol
Amazing video. I love this series and I'm going to reread it at some point.
I LOVE THIS!!
I am so excited to get back to that series now! I had to take a break after Queen of Shadows!
I just finished Queen of Shadows this past week and it was my favorite!!! I'm trying to read a couple of different books before I start tandem reading
The QUEEN has posted! She has been spoiling us lately!
Loved this video so much!!🐥🐥
Currently in the middle of my tandem read and this video really made me happy :)
I love your videos. Currently reading acosf after that i am going to start assassins blade i am so excited ❤❤❤
the way i’m also reading the ToG series and i completely forgot what you were talking about for the first couple books 😂
I love that you're wearing Alexa Raye's merch!!!😁❤️
Can't wait to read just for the summer
i’m reading throne of glass atm too! i literally just put down the assassins blade (i’m reading it 4th) to watch this 💗💗
One of my favorite series by far! But Tower of Dawn made me want to DNF the series 😂 so glad i tandem read it and pushed through
This series is amazing. I loved so much. ❤
Your cat is literally soo cute, I wish mine would join me when I’m reading
Doing a buddy read of heir of fire this month can’t wait!

3. tower of dawn⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
4. empire of storms⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
5. the assassins blade⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

who will ALWAYS support Ali? 👋⬇️
Me!
Me! Always and forever ❤❤😊😊
Me (:
Nort west Ali best
Meeeeee❤
This was soo fun to watch!! I'm kinda afraid of this series and how many and how long they are. However... the tandem read looks so fun and unique I might have to give it a try!!
Omg I always wanted to read the series
I agree about Chaol!! Everyone got on the hating train for him, but he truly did always come from a good place in HIS OWN heart/mind
i honestly loved tower of dawn… i sometimes found myself enjoying it a bit more. unpopular opinion for sure 😂😂 i love the TOG series so much
I loved Throne of Glass so much! I read the first 3 books so fast. First long series that I loved in a while. :)
I might start the series later this month
I read assassins blade after crown of midnight, loved it!
The bookmarks you used in the tandem read are so cute! Where are they from?
I read this series in February, and I loved it!! It is so much fun to watch others read it :D
This is making me want to reread TOG even though I haven’t even read a kingdom of ash! 🙃
I'm so confused as to why nobody ever seems to read The Assassin's Blade third, after Crown of Midnight but before Heir of Fire. That's the order SJM herself recommends on her website, so I don't get why it's so unpopular (to the point that this video doesn't even mention it as an option)! I always find it funny when a fandom collectively decides an author is incorrect about their own work like that, and it sort of happened twice with this series (the reading order and then the popularity of the tandem read for Tower of Dawn and Empire of Storms)
I read Assassin’s Blade third and to this day I still consider it the best way 🤔 and I agree SJM recommended it herself so 🤷♀️
I hear more people recommend reading 1st or 3rd. I rarely hear 4th. I’ve been debating whether to read it 1st or 3rd.
Oooh interesting! I actually didn't know that. I just watched several tiktoks on the best reading order and heard 1st or 4th. I didn't realize SJM had given a recommendation. I should've googled that!
@@faithi717 If you really want to understand all the references to her past in the first 2 books and not be spoiled on what happens in the prequel read it first, but if you want to get to know Celeana, the world and you want to know what you are embarking on before reading the prequel I advise you to read it third 🤔 I just think starting with throne of glass is the better introduction to this series and this world but that’s my opinion 🙌
@@JustAli But I agree that everything is a little confusing ! 😅
I really want to pick up her books at some point but my TBR is still long even though im partly almost done with a book and its book 2 its so cute and just like yea sad that its almost over, but at the same time i can move on to other things now.
this video made me get out of a tog slump! im currently on queen of shadows and its always pretty slow for me in the beginning but ive read a good 40 pages so far and now im on page 160 :)
I finished queen of shadows 2 weeks ago I decided to take a few weeks of just reading romance books books because I know that the tandem read is going to take a lot of mental preparation
ahhh. unpopular opinion but i actually enjoyed tower of dawn a lot more than i thought i would. idk if it was because i went in w low expectations or it was because i listened to a lot of it on audiobook or maybe it was cause i really really likes yrene. like you said , she is one of the non warrior type characters and i really loved her pov. especially on audio.
I completely agree! I almost liked Tower of Dawn more than Empire of Storms, I was just so attached to Yrene and had been from Assassin's blade. The world building was also gorgeous
I agree with this so much!
I’m sending you all the love❤❤
You have so many crocheted clothes and they’re all so cute! Do you make them?
Just a random thought: I don't remember if you already did that, but I think it would be fun to film a "read with me" type of video (or a live maybe??) to keep as a background while reading. I really enjoy your content, expecially your challenges, but really you could post random things and it would be a hit for me !!
i read the series in november and i'm wondering if it's too soon for a reread... i just loved the series sm!!!
For the people who want to read this series as well, the writer herself has said on her site that she preferred reading the assassin's blade as third in the series
Unpopular opinion: I actually really loved Tower of Dawn. I did the tandem read, and I found that the slower pace was actually really nice. I don’t think I would have enjoyed it as much if I did them individually
I really want to read these!!!!
Ahhh I love throne of glass so much ❤❤❤
Love this ❤❤❤❤❤
Ali, honey, I love you. But I am a FIRM believer that reading assassins blade first is a mistake. I’m currently reading the series for the first time myself, I’m at the beginning of Kingdom of Ash. But I think the emotional impact of assassins blade is intended for you to have after already knowing her. I felt perfectly connected to Celaena reading Throne of Glass first, and then seeing all of the backstory later just made the emotions overwhelming. If you aren’t an emotional reader, I get it, but if this helps anyone decide to read assassins blade after heir or fire, I’ll be happy.
I'm currently reading queen of shadows and i kinda lost my motivation. I feel like this series is putting me in a slump because it's so long🥲
That's how I felt a bit with the last 3 books. The books are still so good but I started to loose a bit of steam with the length of the series & the individual books
❤❤❤умничка,столько терпения и красоты!!!
Finally got this video, my life is complete 🥺💘
I read the Throne of Glass series as it came out and its been years since the last book was released and it is still a god tier series for me. Nothing has surpassed it as of yet but Fourth Wing is a very close second.
Love yours video ❤️😍
Another order is reading the prequel third idk what difference it makes but that’s the one I’ve seen ppl do the most
the title omg
I still need to start heir of fire 🫠
I'M READING IT TOOO
It took me a month to finish Heir of Fire.
I’m so #TeamChaol ❤❤❤
Yesss we need a spoilers video ❤
I read it fourth and I will die saying that’s they best way 😂
I also have a very unpopular opinion and people have tried to fight me in the comments, but AB, ToG, CoM, and ToD are the best in the series and KoA is the worst 😂
As someone who read AB after book 5... I have so much regret. I wish I would've read it first, and I will never understand why people say to read it later in the series. I feel like I missed so much because of it. It was hard to like Celaena in the beginning, and I didn't care about Sam at all 😅😅. Once I read it, and things came together, I was that much more obsessed!!
Also, hesitant plug, I will be posting a spoiler reaction vlog for Kingdom of Ash very soon. It'll be my first video, so if anyone is interested in hearing a random girls thoughts on the last book, subscribe?? 😬😬
Bro I love how you have only the first three books of the twisted series and I only have the last one😂
Best series ever
I need to read the tog series don’t I ?
Read these in four months. ❤
what was the frickin song when you started heir of fire !!!
No way would I attempt this I would just separate videos for each book separately and then when I was done just combine all of them at the end. I will eventually try to read this series.
Rushing the first 5 books defo makes the final 3 less impactful 😂
Read Powerlles by lauren robberts
Im so sad I finished it 😭 I wish I could go back. I miss the world.
I’m definitely Elide in so many ways:
I’m adopted
I’m 24 but look like a kid (so really everyone underestimates me)
Etccc
damn thick books
I haven’t read this series yet 😭 so I’m very glad it’s spoiler free 🤩
Major spoilerr warning!
Soo, this is my favorite series of all time and it is what got me into reading a few years ago, i went back and forth eith the first 2 books like not exactly caring than restarting and so on, but in the thrid boook the series made it on a 6 star graph.i loved aelin a little more than i loved celaena so the last 6 books were my faves, but i read the prequel last wich was bad cuz i didnt undestand anything in the 4 book and i reccommand reading the prequel second ( unpopular opinion) also i realy didnt like chaol and i loved rowan from the first page anyway my fav book is QOS and my least favTOD❤
7:59 the potato has spawned
Book girlies, assemble. Ali has posted.
When I saw that she posted I literally yelped I was so excited or is it just me ???
I think it’s so fun how books are so different for everyone. Heir of Fire was my least favorite. 😂 it’s also funny that I rated just a couple books 5 stars but the overall series was 5. You just get so nostalgic thinking back to the beginning
same, it was my second least favorite because there was one part that ruined the whole thing for me 😭
@@throneofcastlescrumblingit was my least fav too, i felt like literally nothing happened the entire time until the end and i was not a fan of rowan at ALL 😅 what was the part that ruined it for you, im so curious??
@@jillianv154 the part i didn't like was dorian's pov, and dorian is my favorite character but i REALLY didn't like the girl 😭
@@throneofcastlescrumbling lol that’s so fair, i didn’t like that pov either and the romance felt awkward between them 😭
@@jillianv154 omg yesss i love him with manon way more
Where did you get the book hoddie from?😂
Kinda spoilers! ( it's just names but if you don't want to know anything don't read ahead!)
I'm currently reading Tower of Dawn ( not doing the tandem read though) and it's also moving wayyy too slow for me. Nesryn is also just kinda there for me, but Chaol and Yrene are sooo sweet, and the main reason I'm reading the book. Heir of Fire is my favourite so far, just because of Manon and Rowan probably. Also unpopular opinion, but Queen of Shadows wasn't that good for me just because it took me a while to get into it and I thought the beginning had too much stuff going on.
Do you have a Heart of Stone? HOW DID YOU NOT CRY
Hi people!!! i just finished the acotar series and i see a lot of people recommending reading throne of glass before crescent city but then i see other people saying that it's the other way around so idk which one to read first 😬😬😬😬
As someone that's read all of SJM's series multiple times I highly suggest reading the TOG series before reading at least the 3rd Crescent City book. As you can pick up on a few easter eggs in the 3rd Crescent City book if you've already read the TOG series
@@trinidy7844oh thank you so much!! I didn't know that 🫶
13:39 🥲🥲🥲
When you have too much free time ❤😂
literally me haha
