Jenna Bush Hager sits down with bestselling author Sarah J. Maas, the powerhouse behind Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses, and Crescent City. As ACOTAR celebrates its tenth anniversary, Sarah reflects on her early writing days, the manuscript she scrapped, and the debut that changed everything. She opens up about the impact of BookTok, balancing motherhood with deadlines, and why fantasy and romance offer more than just escapism — they offer hope.
