ACOTAR book 6 (and 7)

It’s official: Sarah J. Maas has confirmed the next ACOTAR instalment is coming this year. On Call Her Daddy, she revealed that the first part drops on October 27, 2026, and that the story is massive. “I mean, like, it’s long. It’s long,” she said.

Even bigger news? Two months later, on January 12, 2027, a second part will follow. Sarah explained the series will be released in multiple volumes, but is meant to be experienced as one massive story.

“It’s basically going to be like three physical volumes, but it’s like one thing altogether… I could not live with the idea of publishing part one and then making everyone wait a year,” she said.

Is there going to be a 6th book in the Acotar series?

Yes! After years of waiting, Sarah J. Maas confirmed on Call Her Daddy that the beloved A Court of Thorns and Roses series will continue with a sixth (and seventh) instalment.

Fans can finally stop refreshing their feeds and start counting down the days until the next chapter in Prythian.

Is the 6th ACOTAR book about Elain?

It’s the theory fans have been buzzing about for years: Elain Archeron could finally get her own POV story.

She’s the only Archeron sister who hasn’t led a book yet (Feyre got the first three, Nesta had book five) so it makes sense that Maas might give Elain the spotlight next.
