Every ACOTAR book in order, plus the two Valkyrie Cycle books due in 2026 and 2027, my rating for each, the novella you can skip, and what to read next.

The best romantasy books ranked by an author who reads 80-plus a year: ACOTAR, Phantasma, Fourth Wing, Quicksilver and more, with spice levels and ratings.

My Slaying the Vampire Conqueror review: fast pace, good worldbuilding, and an emotional handbrake. My honest rating of the Nyaxia standalone.

My Traitor Queen review: a decent Bridge Kingdom sequel that plays it safe. What holds up, what ambles, and my honest rating.

My Born of Blood and Ash review: a 700-page finale I read in days. How the prequel ties back to Blood and Ash, where the prose runs light, my rating.

My A Fire in the Flesh review: book three of Flesh and Fire is brisk, worthwhile, and a tad predictable. My honest rating and who should read it.

My A Light in the Flame review: a fast, fun Flesh and Fire sequel with zero reinvention. What works, what repeats, and my honest rating.

My A Shadow in the Ember review: the Blood and Ash prequel I was sure I would skip. The lore that works, the déjà vu that doesn’t, and my rating.

My War of Two Queens review: the comeback installment of Blood and Ash. Clever twists, real stakes at last, and the two gripes that cost it a star.

My Crown of Gilded Bones review: where Blood and Ash loses a little steam. The overpowered-heroine problem, what still works, and my honest rating.

My A Kingdom of Flesh and Fire review: 40% exposition, read in two days anyway. Why the romance carries book two of Blood and Ash, and my honest rating.
