Im sorry if this isn't the right subreddit perhaps, but the dedicated one won't let me post bc I didn't interact enough ~~which has never happened to me lol~~. But regarding ACOTAR series:

If any of y'all read it, I'd love to hear what your thoughts are.

I finished the first 3 books recently. When I tell you I DEVOURED them, I was done within maybe 5 days? Procrastinated tf out of other things and for the life of me couldn't put it down. I know it's a very polarizing series but idk I just haven't felt this compelled by world building and characters in a while. I have a hard time getting hooked on the descriptions necessary for the fantasy genre and found that her writing style in this particular series was a good middle ground between info dumping and thorough description. However, I wasn't aware that from the 5 published books, the latest 2 take a turn and are apparently very criticized by the fandom? As in, some of the characters go from adorable found family to straight up assholes to each other, there's some problematic elements poorly handled and such. So my dilemma is: do I absolutely need to read the last 2 ? I've mostly spoiled myself for the bigger plot points lol which I don't mind, but I'm not sure considering how much I loved the first 3 if I could take going into two installments that are borderline character assassination, from the opinions I've found.

So, I'm not dying to read those, but maybe I'm missing so much, some people LOVED it, and I'm just letting myself be swayed by netizens who are unnecessarily harsh.
