What’s a book you picked up expecting just a fun read but ended up falling way harder than you expected? Oh my god(RIP Saint of Steel), I did not expect to fall in love with Paladin’s Grace the way I did.

💬 What’s a myth or legend you’d love to see turned into a fantasy novel? So I finished Daughter of Chaos last week and I’ve been sitting with it because… chaos, literally. it’s fast, fierce, full of monsters + prophecies + golden apples that sparkle with trouble. I didn’t expect to care so much but danae pulled me in like a tide. not always likable, not always right, but so real. Danae (yes, the one from the myths, kinda) is just out here minding her business, being a fisherman's…
