Just a mum geek in a romantasy world

My space for my ramblings over books, my love for the Maas universe, marvel, Bucky and lord of the rings.

Bryce: Look at my face

Hunt: okay?

Bryce: no no, keep looking

Hunt: I am looking!

Bryce: No you're not. Look Harder

Hunt: Is there a point to this?

Bryce: Yes. So look as hard as you can. Focus on every part of my face

Hunt: Al-fucking-right! I am!

Bryce: Now...Does is it look like I give a fuck?

The new series of Criminal minds evolution has officially jumped the shark.

I don't know if there's an audience out there for this but man I'm so disappointed.

I love criminal minds. Emily, hotch and Spencer and my absolute favs.

This new series is such a wet bag of fish

Garcia is like a dulled down muted version of herself

Voit needs to fuck off. Honestly his storylines needs to go away. Never before has an unsub been in it this much, for a good reason!! They ended it amazingly last season just let him gooooooo. Him being interviewed for a podcast?? Give me a break

They're not even profiling anymore!!!

Emily is honestly the only good thing in it. She is keeping me watching it

"we didn't approve the sign". What a legend

Through all our differences we unite on one thing

i love how everyone in the ACOTAR fandom agrees there's more to the Mor/Eris storyline and that there's more to Eris.

I've not seen one bit of true hate towards him. I find this both amusing and eager to find out more about him

"Why do Eluciens/Gwynriels keep making us explain that [blah blah blah]?"

Baby, no one is making you do shit. This is a completely voluntary situation.

In fact, I wish you wouldn't. Free yourself ✨

[oldernotwiser26]

I wish the book would come out already to stop this "we're right and you're wrong" rhetoric

At this point, I want Sarah to make Elaine happy and single to shut everyone up.

Get off your high horses, it's a book series

There's plenty of excellent fan fiction for anyone left disappointed

Let's be grateful she kept writing after ACOWAR and didn't just make it a trilogy

Honestly I'm considering quitting tumblr over the ridiculous playground "oooh They're going to be so embarrassed", "it's so obvious"

Enjoy it and stop raging and bullying people

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, you are allowed to like more than one character from a series. If two characters sometimes have disagreements with each other doesn't mean you need to pledge your loyalty to one of them and swear on your blood to forever hate the other. Also, if half your personality is hating on a fictional character maybe you need to..... log off for a bit.

I'm sorry but I don't trust your theories about next books if you hate all the main characters.

House of Flame and Shadow bonus chapters....

So I've just finished HOFAS and I fucking loved it. Soooo good. Annoying plots were left open (cough Tharion cough) but I guess that's to lead to more books.

I googled bonus chapters and found 3 for HOFAS. One with Ember and Randall in Velaris and Ruhn and Lidia's wedding.

I looovveeeddd Ruhn and Lidia's wedding. Tragedy that wasn't left in.

The one in Velaris though, was a bit uncomfortable. First of all, I am pro Rhys and he was a dick but I get his rage. His world, his mate and his sons safety were threatened with the worry of the Asteri killing Bryce and coming to him . He doesn't know Bryce like we do so I get his anger.

I also get nestas decision. She trusted Bryce, saw her devastation and desperation, she also saw what Bryce could do.

Cassian however, ummm everything good? I am such a pro Cassian, but this chapter, to learn he was more cross at her than Rhys??!! Ummm what? Was it just an error from Sarah we will never hear from again? Cos I hope so. Man needs to grow a pair and defend his mate. And that's coming from a pro Cassian!

Also, we didn't hear from feyre but hearing she is a great mum and standing up for Nesta still, that's my girl

I personally think everyone who hates on Bryce in HOFAS doesn't understand it/her fully

im gonna go out there and say that Bryce in HOFAS is not as bad as everyone made out.

Hear me out

Ive just read the series so have read all the people saying how awful she is and how her and Hunt are the worst etc etc.

I read it differently

I read it as a woman who didn't plan to do anything major in her life, she was happy in her job and partying with her best friends. She was content hating her dad and the Fae and loved her human family.

Then her world got turned upside down and she was suddenly thrust into a leadership role, forced into a position where she is the only one who can end the Asteri.

Of course she isn't going to have a long plan on how it can work, of course she isn't going to have thought of long term consequences, and of course, most importantly, she isn't going to handle things well in the moment.

Don't get me wrong, she is a dick in the caves with Hunt. And she is very narrow minded when it comes to the Fae and ruling hierarchies. But who can blame her?! We all know her upbringing, we all know how the Fae treated her, what did we expect her to do?

Her and Hunt do argue badly in this. But in my opinion, of course they do. They're a fairly new couple, suddenly facing all these horrendous situations. Hunt was tortured, she was off world, they clearly need to learn how to communicate through these situations. That efficient communication sometimes comes through years of practicing and hard work in relationships, years which they haven't had.

Does Bryce make wrong decisions in his book? Absolutely. Does she treat her partner a bit badly, yes she does.

This might an unpopular opinon but it makes her more relatable. I get a bit fed up of perfect FMC who handle everything with grace and decorum. Bryce isn't like that, it's screamed at us from the very beginning that shes not like that

I actually love that Sarah gave us an imperfect FMC whose mate challenges her, encourages her to do better but STILL loves her unconditionally.

She listens to her friends, she takes things on.

Thanks for listening to my rant

Basically, I love Bryce and I think everyone is too harsh and has far too high standards and expectations of her. (She wound me up at times but I got the context and why she acted like that. I would have handled things much worse if I were her!)

I also think this is one big reason why everyone unfairly hates on Nesta but some of you aren't ready to hear that rant yet 🤣

you so not falter. you do not fear. you do not yield. ⚔️❤️‍🔥

Something about Rhun calling Rhysand “that Night Court dude” is extremely hilarious to me.

[oldernotwiser26]

I was reminded today that the internet is an insane place and it really can't be trusted.

I'm reading House of Sky and Breath ATM.

I love Bryce and Hunt, love that she's so strong in nearly every way. Love that she's plus sized. Love the complicated nature of them both as they seem more normal.

I had read a few things where people think the first time they have sex, Bryce takes advantage of him and it could be seen as a sexual assault.

Well I've just read the scene and those opinions are utter bullshit. Are people even reading the same books?!

Such hate for the content of these and Acotar online. If you don't like it, stop reading them!

Their scene was definitely not assault at all. They were desperate to have sex for so long but everything kept them apart. He got all supercharged and over protective because of the mate thing and Bryce being threatened.

Calming him down it was the perfect way for them both and he definitely wanted it, as did she

I can't with some people. Granted this book doesn't flow as well as the others so far, but people need to calm down 😆

[oldernotwiser26]

Did I start watching Sandokan because someone said he looks like a real life Cassian?

Yes, yes I did

Do I agree with the person that said that?

Yes, yes I do

Do I have any regrets?

None 😆
