In the ACOTAR void, many people are recommending turning to Sarah J. Maas&#39; other series, &quot;Throne of Glass.&quot; But it may be a really abrupt switch for people expecting more of the same who end up reading YA. So, the Busy Girls tackle the first book and the namesake of the series.

The stakes are high and the food is good in &quot;Six Crimson Cranes&quot; by Elizabeth Lim.
