    I know, I know, another slow burn romance rec post. I’ve scoured quite a few but here’s the kicker, I want something that is not only beautifully written in plot but also in language. Like the author has to be good. I do not think, in any sense of the word, Maas is a good author. She can tell a story, sure, but the way she writes is not artistic to me. I want a slow, slow slow burn romance that literally punches you in the gut and you think about it long after you’ve finished reading for what happened bUT ALSO THE WAY IT WAS WRITTEN. A good example of this that I recently read was The Night Circus; I also quite enjoyed The Birthmarked series by Caragh O’Brien. I’m partial to fantasy but if it’s truly beautifully done I’m good with that. Also also, I do love a good MMC who is in love with the FMC but thinks he isn’t good enough/she deserves better so he sabotages or doesn’t pursue right away
