Specifically for fans of A Court of Frost and Starlight, So This is Ever After explores the aftermath of the big battle between our main characters and their antagonist. What do our characters do with their lives now? What is the next challenge they must face?

Learning to control magic can be a difficult thing, but learning without a willing teacher can be even harder. Like Feyre’s own magical journey in A Court of Mist and Fury, Rowenna Winthrop’s magic tutelage hasn’t been without major obstacles. With a mother who hides a monstrous nature and refuses to help nurture her power, Rowenna must take her fate into her own hands and unlock the power she knows is inside her.

A world filled with wonder and magic that is darkly whimsical and engrossing. Is it Prythian or the Wilding Home? The world inhabited by the Fae Courts of A Court of Thorns and Roses, feels as mysterious and magical as the home that Delta and her sister Bee live in with their eccentric father. Perfect for fans of magical houses and dangerous romances, Starling by Isabel Strychacz is the next great read for anyone who loved A Court of Silver Flames.
Amarantha, self-proclaimed High Queen of Prythian, would find a kinship with The Sorceress Who Eats Girls from Tessa Gratton’s Night Shine. Two sides of the same coin these powerful women plagued their lands for decades and held people against their will, only to be challenged by a young protagonist who turns out to be stronger than they thought. If you liked the power dynamic between Amarantha and her court, you’ll love the dark dynamic between a girl named Nothing and The Sorceress Who Eats Girls.
Fragile alliances made by the Fae Courts hold the peace in the A Court of Thorns and Roses Series and in A Dark and Hollow Star.

If you were a fan of the Fae Courts of ACOTAR and want to delve deeper into the world of Fae, A Dark and Hollow Star should find its way to the top of your TBR pile.
