I think 16 books it too much...
I feel I'm going to make some people mad. That's not my intention. Truly. This is just an observation regarding the new ACOTAR books. No offense to everyone reading all three series to prepare for ACOTAR 6, but it would be really funny if no one from other two series showed up in either ACOTAR 6 or 7. Or if they did, it would only be for a brief moment. We are talking about 16 books here, in total sum, including ACOTAR. The amount of information people will get from reading other two series is way too much to be fully addressed in the new ACOTAR books, when they come out. Despite the cameos and some new infos, here and there, CC3 was still Bryce's story, and I feel the same will happen with new ACOTAR books. Obviously, you can do whatever you like. Not saying, what you do is wrong. I wish you all to enjoy every bit of your reads. Truly. And, it's a different thing altogether if you're reading all these books for pleasure of emerging yourself in Maas' characters and understanding the potential connections. But making it a monthly task, you must accomplish before the release, especially of the first book, seems a bit too much.
