Hi! I read and vent about books and would love to chat with you guys about them

[litteraslegit]

Throne of Glass was my first fav fae fiction YA series and will always have a special place in my heart. I have hate posts on ACOTAR but I do not hate Sarah J Maas. I think she is a wonderful author has plans and explanations ahead, and definitely knows what her fans think about the acotar series and will answer all our questions.

in no way is this a hate blog to sjm.

in ACOFAS rhysand reveals to feyre that every dress she has worn every single one has been made by his mother - who was a seamstress

okay firstly, how did mama night knew the exact measurements ?

secondly your telling me that the napkin for a dress she wore UTM and in Hewn city were made by rhysand’s mom??? she made that thinking -“yes my daughter in law would like to wear extremely revealing clothes” - i mean yeah feyre does seem to enjoy them but how did she know?ORRRRR is it part of another dress and rhysand just took it off and gave it to her ?

and did she not care to make dresses for her other two adopted son’s mates? OR she did but rhysand doesn’t wasn’t to give it to nesta because he hates her ? same goes for the rings - she left one for feyre.

there is a scene in the book quicksilver *spoiler* where the MMC reveals that he knew she(FMC) is his mate because his mother was a witch/psychic or something like that and had left a drawing oh her and i wonder if RHYSAND’S mom did the same thing ???? (maybe she is a witch)

like we know bone carver knew everything and the weaver is his sister so maybe she possesses the same ability and rhysand’s mother knew her sons mate is a human and would want to test her (because feyre was a human) wether - she is deserving or worth being rhysand’s mate - and that’s why left the ring with the weaver

okay imagine if the illyrians could actually shapeshift into bats !

that would actually be so cool !!!

(what if it’s like a suppressed magic and they just need to figure out how to activate it (CC3 vibes the one with the wolves having ice powers) )

[litteraslegit]

What if the Attor was Tamlin the entire time in Under the Mountain?

the ending of book one got to me where it is revealed that the attor shapeshifter as tamlin in the last trial. we get to know that attor can shape shift - so what other time throughout the book one did he shape-shift while amarantha had tamlin locked away somewhere?

- possible theory why tamlin never brought anything up from their time UTM post book 1

i think it’s a good thing that we don’t have any ACOTAR 6 crumbs yet because believe it or not this fandom is very opinionated and will go insane if the next book isn’t about the character they want it to be about

everyone should lose their minds on release day collectively and yes a book title or a cover reveal would be nice- but we would figure out a lot by that too

Holy Fucking Shit

This comment on reddit has blown my mind a little bit, seriously.

Feyre, Elain, Nesta (golden child/scapegoat) : r/acotar

Basically, it points out that when Nesta was dealing with her trauma, everyone's solution was basically to do to her what was done to them.

Morrigan said to throw her out and leave her vulnerable to attack and abuse, just like Morrigan was.

Amren suggested locking Nesta in a dungeon, just as Amren was.

Cassian belittled her and made her feel small, just like Cassian was for being a bastard.

Rhys dangled her as a bait and pimped her out to Eris, just he like had to do to himself UTM with Amarantha.

Elain supported locking Nesta up in the House of Wind, just as Elain was after being Made.

Feyre was also locked up by Tamlin and did the same thing to Nesta.

It's like they've identified a "problem" in their little court, one in need of a "solution", and took advantage of that to get pay back for what they went through by doing it all to Nesta, who ugly and visible in her trauma, and is refusing to play happy families with the rest of them.

(I could theorise why Azriel isn't actively involved in doing this to Nesta, more passively allowing it, seeing as he went through extreme physical abuse from his family, and while I would like to assign benign motives, the fact is that as the court of torturer, if he wanted to take his trauma out on others, then he has plenty of opportunities to do so.)

Rhysand could've worked if we acknowledged his ATROCIOUS amount of flaws, and gave him fucking consequences, like dying. Instead, we get a performative feminist who only cares about the women he's attracted to or needs to use as weapons. Making him the 'correct' love interest after the shit he pulled UtM was by far, the lesser fucking choice, considering we brush off his SA like it didn't happen. Go feminist, go strip a drugged woman of her autonomy and parade her around almost naked before making her grind on another man. In my version, Rhysand is the villain who wants Tamlin so bad, it makes him look pathetic. I wanted hannigram level toxicity, but worse. Keep the idea that Rhysand is this benevolent/righteous HL only to find out that he mind controls all of Velaris. It would've made him terrifying! The city looks filled with happy people, but they are scarlet witch level controlled by the man who leads them. Give me an obsessed Rhysand who looses his mind after the loss of his whole FUCKING FAMILY. Obsessed with the Spring HL, because its the closest relation he had until the incident. I'm literally just throwing ideas but the thought of a charismatic and charming Rhysand who helped people from the IC because he simply needed their powers in the long term. Who offered a helping hand to Morrigan, only for her to realise that she's traded one cage for another. You step out of bounds or waver your loyalty for him? Prepare to feel your mind split in half and suddenly the words that come out of your mouth aren't yours. I want a tired Mor, who fell for it in a moment of vulnerability, because that's exactly what he does. Prey on the vulnerable, pretend to be their guardian angel when he's nothing but the devil.

Watch Rhysand go through the seven stages of grief when Nyx falls in love with Tamlin‘s kid

[eldritchguava]

People saying Rhysand was the only one who taught Feyre to read and write and that Tamlin wanted to keep Feyre illiterate...

Tamlin shows her his library, literally offers to teach her, to help her write her letters. And she says no.

He then writes her a series of limericks using words that he knows she struggles with (!) to help her understand their meaning through context.

Hello?? He tried writing love poems at first and then turned to filthy limericks instead. My heart.

That's so sweet! It's funny, it's witty. He's helping her while being careful to not embarrass her. He cares. He notices her struggle. He teaches her without patronizing her. Makes her laugh. Sharing something about himself in the process.

And he does it without having her write lines about him being the most handsome, most powerful and bestest man in the entire world. Funny how that's possible.

Do you guys think about how the moment Percy was casted as blond, blue eyed boy his poverty wasn't mentioned, his abuser became a comic relief, the media calling him a delinquent and a terrorist was removed and camp never excluded him? Because I do, a lot

[silver-flames-of-dusk]

Fun Fact: Nesta, Tamlin, and Lucien aren't nearly as problematic as Feyre and the IC.

[tamlinmybeloved]

rip tamlin you deserve an author who would be interested in your complexities and more than willing to tell your story instead of coasting on vibes and having her precious fav do all the things that you did but sweep it under the rug instead of having him face consequences

[spacerockfloater]

When Rhysand’s mother decided his future wife must be able to escape the clutches of a death god in order to prove her love for her son, Rhysand straight up surrendered Feyre to the Weaver. He sent his mate to a trap no other fae ever survived solely to satisfy his dead mother and his own ego.

When Tamlin had to make a woman profess her love for him in order to save all of Prythian at the risk of her getting harmed, he sent Feyre home.

Don’t ever get it twisted.

dw james aaron and juliette messed up our romantic expectations and standards for everyone

sigh

love them both so much though

“I’ve had many lovers,” he admitted. “Females of noble birth, warriors, princesses…But they never understood. What it was like, what it is like, for me to care for my lands, my people. What scars are still there, what the bad days feel like.”

Friendly reminder that when Tamlin was telling Feyre about his past lovers, "warriors" is gender neutral meaning a certain half-Illyrian warrior who gifted him fighting knives and hadn't become High Lord yet would perfectly fit the bill.
