![]() ![]() There's a whole microgenre of tiktoks that are people telling you books you may already have read that have a longer wordcount than it. ![]() If you watch the tiktoks, you will notice a pattern in a lot of them - praise for the worldbuilding, the sapphic relationship, and also a number of people urgently wanting to reassure you that while it looks like a heckin' chonker of a book, it's really not that bad, honestly, truly it isn't. And, riding off the back of this surge in popularity, comes the new prequel - A Day of Fallen Night. Especially in the wake of the success of the sapphic trifecta ( The Jasmine Throne, The Unbroken and She Who Became the Sun), and the sudden resurge of popularity of The Priory of the Orange Tree on tiktok. Whether that's true or not is by the by, but the sentiment exists. I have heard Samantha Shannon referred to as the "sapphic daddy" for The Priory of the Orange Tree, and credited to an extent with kickstarting the current trend of lesbian high fantasy. ![]()
