Not only are the faeries strange and mysterious, but there's a great mystery Feyre must defeat: a darkness that's threatening to take over Tamlin's world forever. If you're a fantasy book lover, then you have to try your hand at this viral title from Sarah J. Maas.

Book Lovers by Emily Henry

Nora knows everything about books inside and out, just like she knows that she's more like the snobby ex-girlfriend than the heroine. But when she joins her sister Libby in Sunshine Falls, North Carolina (where she keeps running into standoffish New York editor Charlie) Nora learns that she might surprise herself and everyone around her.

Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo

Anything can be bought for the right price in Ketterdam, and Kaz knows that better than anyone. When he's offered a deadly heist for an unbelievable reward, Kaz gathers a crew of thieves and spies to embark on the impossible journey.

A Game of Fate by Scarlett St. Clair

The first installment in the Hades saga, A Game of Fate explores the age-old story of Hades and Persephone from Hades' point of view. In St. Clair's tale, Hades is happy enjoying his life in the underworld when he discovers that the fates have plans for him that are outside of his control: He is to wed the journalism student Persephone, who has little interest in having any kind of relationship with him. Now, he has to prove himself to Persephone, and convince her that he isn't as horrible as he seems.

We Were Liars by E. Lockhart

The wealthy Sinclair family spends every summer on their private island. Cadence, Johnny, Gat, and Mirren (the four "Liars" in question) are thick as thieves, but when Cadence wakes up in the hospital after her fifteenth summer, she must spend the next summer figuring out what went wrong.

People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

Poppy and Alex have been best friends for years, and every summer, they take a vacation together to celebrate their friendship and enjoy the summer sunshine. But one year, all of this comes to a halt — and everything falls apart. Two years after the big event, Poppy reaches out to Alex to reconnect and set things straight. They agree to go on one final vacation together… and the rest, they say, is the stuff of novels.

The Crown of Gilded Bones by Jennifer L. Armentrout

The Crown of Gilded Bones is book three in Jennifer L. Armentrrout's Blood and Ash fantasy series. Fans of the series are *obsessed* with its mix of fantasy, romance, and adventure, and we can't blame them. In this third installment, Poppy (yes, the main character of this book is also named Poppy) and her love Prince Casteel set out to find her brother and free his, undertaking a dangerous mission that will undoubtedly lead them through a maze of twists and turns.

Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid

In a story that explores friendship, race, and privilege, Such a Fun Age is both enlightened and entertaining. When Emira Tucker is accused of kidnapping a white child that she's babysitting, her employer wants to make things right. What ensues is a story about how we connect, and how we don't, and what it means to be an adult in today's society.

Honey Girl by Morgan Rogers

Grace Porter has just completed her PhD when she takes one wild trip to Vegas with her friends. Despite being the straight-laced, buttoned-up type, she decides to allow herself to completely let go… So much so that she ends up marrying a woman she barely even knows. This escapade helps Grace admit just how dissatisfied she's become with her life, and she and her new wife run away to New York to get to know each other. What ensues is a story about self-love, growing into adulthood, and healing old wounds — and it's an emotional experience on every page.

Atomic Habits by James Clear

Now in its third year as a bestseller, Atomic Habits is a non-fiction primer on how to build the kinds of habits that add up to a successful life. The key to building habits, Clear argues, lies not in willpower, but in lifestyle design. And this uber-popular book walks you through how to do just that.

Circe by Madeline Miller

Centered on Circle, the much-maligned witch from Homer's The Odyssey, this book is a reframing of some of mankind's most beloved and well-known myths from the perspective of a female antagonist-turned-protagonist. Retelling the story from Circe's point of view clues us in on the abuse, neglect, and disrespect of this force to be reckoned with, and deeply humanizes her character while telling the story of an epic adventure.

It Starts With Us by Colleen Hoover

This sequel to It Ends With Us picks up right after the first left off, and Lily and Ryle are in a civil coparenting rhythm when she runs into her first love Atlas and agrees to a date. It's been two years since they've seen each other and even though Lily is excited, she knows that Atlas is the last person Ryle will want in their daughter's life. This title is available on October 18, 2022.

When the Stars Go Dark by Paula McLain

Part thriller and part emotional drama, When the Stars Go Dark combines a fictional setting with real-life missing persons cases. When missing persons detective Anna Hart suffers a huge personal tragedy, she flees to her childhood hometown to recover. But when she arrives, a girl goes missing in the community, and she can't help but realize how closely this new case mirrors one that occurred when she was a child. What ensues is a novel about things that go missing, and the emotional pain of learning to let others into our own innermost spaces.

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig

The Midnight Library entertains the age-old idea that somewhere at the edge of the universe, there's a library of an infinite number of different stories about our lives… stories of alternate universes in which we made different choices, and took different paths. In this heartwarming and uplifting story, Nora Seed has to make the choice: What if she could alter her life, going back to make different choices about life, love, and career? Would she do anything differently after all?

These Violent Delights by Chloe Gong

1926 Shanghai is run by two gangs who have a blood feud between them. Juliette Cai is the heir of the Scarlet Gang, while her first love — and first betrayal — Roma Montagov is the son of her greatest rivals, the White Flowers. When gangsters on both sides begin falling to a mysterious and deadly force, the duo must put their guns aside to figure it out together.

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab

In 1714, a woman made a bargain: She would live forever, but would be cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets. Then, after 300 years of trying to leave some kind of mark on the world, she meets a man in a bookstore — and he remembers her name. In a story that spans centuries and defies genre, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue is a story you won't soon forget.

The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Avery is just trying to make it through high school when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and leaves her almost his entire fortune. The only thing is that Avery has no idea who Tobias even is, or why he would leave her so much money.

Beach Read by Emily Henry

Augustus and January are complete opposites. He's an acclaimed author of literary fiction, her romance novels are bestsellers. She loves a happily ever after, he does not.

You, Again by Kate Goldbeck

This book has been compared to Meg Ryan's When Harry Met Sally on more than one occasion! When Ari and Josh meet, they immediately hate each other. However, despite all the ways their personalities clash, they do have one thing in common: they're sleeping with the same woman. Over time, and after a few painful breakups, the two become friends — and before long, they're left wondering whether there's something more between them.

The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood

Third-year Ph.D. candidate Olive doesn't believe in lasting romance, but convincing her best friend requires scientific proof. Olive panics and kisses Adam, Stanford's hotshot and tyrant professor.

Just when she thinks Adam is going to bail, he does just the opposite...

But as she writes, Monique realizes that her own life relates to Evelyn's in unexpected ways.

The thing is, the longer they're in paradise, the more Olive doesn't mind pretending.

A Good Girl's Guide To Murder by Holly Jackson

According to Deadline, she's one of the executive producers of Zurawski v Texas, a documentary that sheds light on the "restrictive abortion laws" that put women's lives in danger in Texas. Alongside producers Hilary and Chelsea Clinton, Jennifer's involvement in the documentary as a pregnant woman makes a pivotal statement during a time where mothers' mortalities aren't always considered during their pregnancies.

The actress later explored her feeling about becoming a mom in another Vogueinterview. "It’s so scary to talk about motherhood. Only because it’s so different for everybody. If I say, It was amazing from the start, some people will think, 'It wasn’t amazing for me at first,' and feel bad. Fortunately I have so many girlfriends who were honest. Who were like, It’s scary," she said.

What has Jennifer Lawrence said about being a mom?

It seems like Jennifer found her stride because she's apparently embraced being a mom. She hasn't said anything recently, but she did speak with Entertainment Tonight last year during the promotion of No Hard Feelings about her parenting habits. "Of course, the urge to stop anything from ever hurting or negatively affecting your baby..." she said.

However, co-star Andrew Barth Feldman had nothing but positive words to share about Jennifer as a mom. "Jen is an amazing mother, for real. That was kind of one of the incredible things about doing this with you is seeing just how much of a priority being a mother is for you and how deeply you care about that over everything," he said.

Ever since Good American Family premiered on March 19, there has been renewed interest in the real-life adoption case of Natalia Grace.

The latest Hulu series stars Ellen Pompeo as Kristine Barnett, who adopted an orphan from Ukraine with her husband, Michael Barnett. However, after taking in Natalia, who had a rare form of dwarfism, Kristine began to suspect that she was an adult pretending to be a child.

New episodes of Good American Family are being released on Wednesdays, but as we wait to see what happens next in the TV dramatization, many fans are wondering whether Natalia's adoptive parents ever faced jail time. Here's everything we know.

Scroll to find out what happened to Natalia Grace's adoptive parents, Kristine and Michael Barnett...

Who is Natalia Grace Barnett?

Max

For those unfamiliar with the infamous case, Natalia was born in Ukraine in 2003 and was first adopted by a different couple, Dyan and Gary Ciccone, back in 2008. She only lived with the Ciccone family for two years before they claimed her behavior was disruptive and relinquished their parental rights.

This led Natalia to be placed up for adoption again, and in 2010, the Barnett family welcomed her into their Indiana home. She was thought to be 6 or 7 years old at the time, but soon afterward, the Barnetts claimed Natalia had adult traits, such as adult teeth and body hair, and believed she wasn't actually a little girl.

Additionally, they alleged Natalia was a "sociopath" and had tried to harm them and their biological children, Jacob, Wesley, and Ethan.

What happened to Natalia Grace and the Barnetts?

Max

The Barnetts ultimately petitioned an Indiana court in 2012 in order to change her birth year from 2003 to 1989. Legally, this made Natalia 22 years old, and she was placed in a Lafayette, Indiana, apartment by herself; meanwhile, the Barnetts relocated to Canada with their three sons, Jacob, Wesley, and Ethan.

Afterward, the Barnett family reportedly cut contact with Natalia, who moved in with another couple, Cynthia and Antwon Mans, about one month later. The Mans family petitioned to become her legal guardians in 2016, and by 2023, they were able to legally adopt Natalia.

What happened with Natalia Grace and the Mans?

Max

Nonetheless, Natalia wound up leaving Cynthia and Antwon's home by the end of 2023 after alleging they were controlling. She currently lives in upstate New York with the DePaul family and appeared in the docuseries The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks. There, she called the Barnetts abusive and alleged Kristine had hit her with a belt and pepper-sprayed her.

What happened to Kristine and Michael Barnett?

Max

Following their move to Canada, Michael and Kristine eventually got divorced but maintained that Natalia had exhibited violent behavior. Some allegations include that she'd appeared at the foot of their bed with a knife in her hand and attempted to poison Kristine's coffee.

Despite the fact that they filed the petition to change Natalia's age in 2012, Michael and Kristine weren't charged until 2019. They faced multiple counts of neglect, but Michael was found not guilty in 2022, and the charges against Kristine were subsequently dropped in 2023 after Michael testified in her pretrial.

Kristine Barnett reportedly wrote in a since-deleted Facebook post, "If there had been any abuse of Natalia or evidence of it, I would have been found guilty of it, and I would be in jail. I believe Natalia takes advantage of that sympathy to manipulate people."

Michael filed for divorce in 2014 and later appeared on The Curious Case of Natalia Grace: Natalia Speaks. As for Kristine, she has mostly flown under the public radar.

Still, following the finale of the docuseries, Kristine shared a long post on Facebook, responding to allegations against her.

"Natalia was a very much loved and cared for member of my family. She was not abused by anyone in my family. Let's get straight to these allegations. Nobody ever took a belt to Natalia, and the allegations that she was 'beaten' are just plain false. Any discipline of Natalia was very minimal and not out of the bounds of normal parenting," she wrote.

Natalia went on to call the docuseries "highly sensationalized," adding, "Michael Barnett and Natalia Barnett may have the same monster, but that monster is not me. That monster, whether it's mental illness, sociopathy, or whatever it actually is, may be different for each of them. But it's within their own psyche."

Who plays Natalia Grace Barnett today?

Disney/Ser Baffo

In Good American Family, Imogen Faith Reid plays Natalia Grace, and Mark Duplass depicts Michael Barnett. Ellen Pompeo has said the latest series intends to show both sides of the adoption story in an "intentional and thoughtful" way.

While I love seeing BookTok-viral novels get turned into movies (hello It Ends With Us!), it's just as fun to see them get turned into TV shows, like Fourth Wing — which is why I had such high hopes for A Court of Thorns and Roses at Hulu...before it got canceled. But believe it or not, the fantasy series cancellation could actually a good thing.

Here's the latest update on the A Court of Thorns and Roses show.

Is the ACOTAR TV show still happening?

KoolShooters/Pexels

A Court of Thorns and Roses TV show has officially be scrapped at Disney’s 20th Television, according to Variety. But ACOTAR fans, don't give up hope! Sarah J. Maas was working with Outlander creator Ronald D. Moore, but now Variety's sources say that after the rights expire at Disney, SJM will be shopping the rights to an ACOTAR show to a different studio and platform.

Honestly, I'm totally here for this because a platform like Prime or Max would provide a different kind of edge and aesthetic to the series that would serve it in a different way. And if we have to wait a little longer for a platform SJM feels most aligned with, I'm willing to stick it out!

On February 27, 2024, Sarah J. Maas reportedly went out to coffee with Margot Robbie. Margot's production company (LuckyChap) has backed projects like I, Tonya, Promising Young Woman, Saltburn. Everything Margot touches turns to gold so I really hope she eventually ends up on the creative team for A Court of Thorns and Roses!

Who plays Rhysand in ACOTAR?

Jared Subia/Unsplash

We never got an official cast announcement, but there are plenty of ACOTAR fancasts.

Hannah Dodd, who plays Francesca in Netflix's hit series Bridgerton, would be the PERFECT addition to the cast, whether she plays Elain or Feyre. And now, I honestly don't know if I'll be satisfied with anyone else ;). "She is ELAIN," one TikTok user comments. "Literally copy paste from my brain Elain."

Deuxmoi (via Marie Claire Australia) revealed some potential actors who could be in the running, like Thomas Doherty, Theo James, and Katherine Langford. Actress Brec Bassigner expressed that she'd love to be considered for a role. "I emailed my team, and I was like, ‘Listen, I don’t care if I have one line. I have to be a part of this,'" she says in an interview with TV Line.

Is ACOTAR getting a 6th book?

Amazon

Yes, ACOTAR book 6 is on the way! We don't know who the new book will focus on, but Sarah J. Maas did say she's excited to bring it to us.

"The next book in that series, I have the ideas and general, vague thoughts. But the nitty gritty of writing and the emotional journeys with the characters — I usually love to go on those journeys with them," she said during an appearance on TODAY.

What is A Court of Thorns and Roses about?

Amazon

A Court of Thorns and Roses follows Feyre, a huntress who's forced to live with the immortal faeries after killing a wolf in the woods. The longer she stays in the Fae's world, the more she begins to love it — and the passionate, alluring faerie Tamlin. But as a dark shadow grows, both their world and Tamlin are put in danger, and it's up to Feyre to save them all.

When did the Court of Thorns and Roses series come out?

Amazon

A Court of Thorns and Roses is the first novel in the series of the same name, and was published in 2015. Sarah J. Maas continued the series with A Court of Mist and Fury in 2016, A Court of Wings and Ruin in 2017, A Court of Frost and Starlight in 2018, and A Court of Silver Flames in 2021.

Are you excited for the A Court of Thorns and Roses TV show? Let us know your dream cast in the comments and on TikTok! And read up on The Only ACOTAR Character Breakdown You Need Before Book 6 Comes Out.

After selling out last fall, the "highly-requested" Dunkalatte returned to the Dunkin' spring menu!

No films today can quite measure up to old school Western movies, which transport audiences back to a time of dusty plains, rugged landscapes, and larger-than-life heroes.

These timeless classics, which were often set in the wild frontier of the American West, have helped shape much of modern filmmaking and continue to influence storytelling today.

That's why old school Western movies are more than just a genre; they're a piece of Hollywood history. Here are eight of the most iconic films that still deserve to be rewatched today.

Scroll to see all the old school Western movies you should definitely watch!

Stanley Cramer Productions

1. High Noon (1952)

High Noon, which came out in 1952, depicted themes of duty, loneliness, and moral courage. It followed lawman Will Kane, played by Gary Cooper, who intends to retire and start a new life after tying the knot with his wife, Amy.

However, his plans are derailed when he learns that a dangerous outlaw named Frank Miller is returning to town to get revenge. Will has to decide whether to flee or face Frank himself.

The movie builds a sense of urgency and isolation, as well as provides commentary on the nature of heroism, showing how even people who claim they stand for justice can fold when confronted with personal risk.

Warner Brothers Entertainment

2. The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948)

In 1948, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre followed two down-on-their-luck oil workers, Dobbs and Curtin, who team up with a miner named Howard to search for gold in the Sierra Madre mountains. Yet, after they literally strike gold, paranoia creeps in, and the group's bond starts to unravel.

While this film is a classic Western, it also doubles as a psychological thriller and features a lot of unexpected twists that will capture the attention of even modern viewers.

20th Century Studios

3. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)

Paul Newman plays Butch Cassidy in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, the leader of a group of bank robbers. Meanwhile, the Sundance Kid, portrayed by Robert Redford, is Butch's loyal partner, and together, their lives get tougher as banks become increasingly harder to rob.

So, they turn to train heists, but even though the new scheme is successful at first, it soon leads to deadly consequences. They become the most wanted men in the West and get caught up in thrilling escapes and shootouts.

20th Century Fox

4. The Gunfighter (1950)

Released in 1950, The Gunfighter provided a fresh take on the classic Western hero. Gregory Peck starred as Jimmy Ringo, a notorious gunfighter who returned to the town of Cayenne to reconnect with his estranged wife and son.

But since his reputation precedes him, Ringo finds himself facing some people who want revenge and others who wish to make a name for themselves by killing him.

The plotline offers a more somber view of the consequences of being a gunfighter, which challenges the glorified image of the Western hero.

United Artists

5. Stagecoach (1939)

Stagecoach follows a group of passengers aboard a stagecoach, one of whom is Ringo Kid, played by John Wayne. Ringo is an escaped convict who wants revenge for the murders of his family members.

It's true that the movie's portrayal of Native Americans is outdated today. Nonetheless, Stagecoach marked a significant moment in John Wayne's career and remains a popular favorite among Western enthusiasts.

Paramount Pictures

6. Shane (1953)

Shane tells the story of a mysterious drifter named Shane, played by Alan Ladd, who gets involved with two homesteaders, Joe and Marian, as they face harassment from a land developer. After the developer's intimidation tactics get more violent, Shane decides to stay with Joe and Marian's family to protect them.

Unfolding against the backdrop of the American Civil War, The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly follows three men who get tied up in a race to discover $200,000 buried in gold.
