Many people have posted images of the bonus chapters from Sarah J. Maas's books, and I thank you for giving us access to content we would have missed out on otherwise. However, no one has posted all of them, so I figure that I can collate the links in one place.
There are minor spoilers below the cut in the chapter descriptions, so be wary of looking too far ahead, if you have not read all the books.

The Assassin and the Princess - Before the start of COM, once Celaena has been the King's Champion for a month, she and Nehemia do a little shopping in Rifthold
Untitled - Mistward is visited by nobles—including one of Rowan's exes—during Celaena's time there in HOF

It’s about time we have a fictional princess who actually enjoys being a princess.
She enjoys the politics. She enjoys the diplomacy. And she enjoys the balls and banquets and attention and pretty dresses and that doesn’t make her a dumb shallow bimbo or some regressive anti feminist handmaid or whatever the kids say these days about women who don’t fall in line with their Strong Female Character power fantasies.
All the princesses urging for ‘something more’ that’s all fine and good but I’m ready to see a princess who appreciates that being a princess is already a lot!
Honestly I’m also down with a princess who understands that not getting to, like, freely pick your husband is part of the deal. You get to eat essentially as much as you like, are filthy rich, and, even if you live in a male-line-only type of monarchy, you have the ear of the ruler of the country, who’s either your father or your husband. Your literally one of the top five most powerful people in the nation in any constellation. The only people who officially outrank you are your parents - who will die eventually - your husband, and possibly the equivalent of the pope. Have some bloody gratitude, you know?
Also your proposal would make for a dope story because doing politics and diplomacy was what being a noble lady was all about, and the “ugh I have to dress up pretty for the male nobles who are slobbering all over my hand when greeting me and no one takes me seriously because I’m a woman” was, like, never true in at the very least European monarchies. Not sure about other countries. I know the Chinese Empress and Mother of the Emperor were a huge deal, at least, but that might have just been those two, not noble women in general.
Exactly. Like surely there were some princesses under very oppressive circumstances but the vast majority had access to some of the best education available at the time, weren’t dying of starvation or cold, wearing the best crafted garments available, and yeah had a lot more influence than people today give them credit for.
