🌌 Elide Lochan from Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas fanart
My queen, Manon Blackbeak of the Ironteeth Witches, by me--Basqueezy!
I finished empire of storms last night... SPOILERS !!
this one is so long im so sorry i could rant forever about this one probs
then proceeded to go to three different book stores to find kingdom of ash because apparently everyone and their damn mom wants to read it RN
barnes + noble never lets me down
i talked to the ladies working behind the counter about the EXISTENTIAL DREAD that i feel with the last book in my clutch
not ready
not okay
NOT PREPARED
honestly honestly honestly
i sighed in relief when i saw that KoA is almost 1,000pgs (at least my version is 😙)
like okay good it'll last me a while but honestly seriously legitimately wtf do you do afterwards
OKAY LET'S DO A QUICK - IF POSSIBLE - RUN DOWN ->
★★★★
Rowan + Aelin 💖💖💖
i dont wanna say it but also,
i may be in love with them even a little more than feyre + rhys
I DONT WANNA SAY IT BUT
but
god. no words. these 2 have swallowed me entirely
and thank gods they finally fucked!!!!!!!!!!! i felt the heavens singing during all those steamy scenese
SIDE NOTE: so many steamy scenes in EoS !!!! worth the slow build !!!!
they love each other so deeply, so viscerally
god it makes me nauseous 😭
AND SO MANY parallels between tog and acotar !!! especially with mates! i see your patterns sjm
i love them; i love rowan and his undying, obsessive need to be with aelin and protect and love and claim
favorite, favorite, favorite part of the book (i think...) at least one of my favorite scenes:
pg 240 - when aelin surprises everyone by showing up in Rolfe's office and rowan is shook asfffffff and the teasing, flirtatious, extremely FUN AND EXCITING exchange between the two 😏 basically this whole page gods i love them
THEY ARE SO CRAZY
AND
they are into some of that exhibitionist kinky bs 😏 and i am happily *eating up the content*
here's my one critique of the entire book: i find it really really really hard to believe that sex on the beach - full ass in the sand AND salt water - i'm sorry idc WHO you are, that is not comfy
pls
like you definitely have some type of rash now, guaranteed! sand-flea bites on places that sand fleas should never bite....
😃
okay whatever aelin
i respect it
get your freak on ig...
BUT
how they bite each other
ahhhh how he fucking put salt in the scratches she left on his back... the bite marks on her neck so they'd stay
physical + obvious claims to one another
gods
that is so sexy to me and i think that reveals a lot about my current mental status !! 😃😃😃😃
ALSO !!!!! OFFICIALLY DECLARED MATES!!! LETS GOOOOOO!! SOUND THE ALARMS!!!
OH OH OHH-
and they're MARRIED!!!!
letttssss fuccckkiinnngg ggooooooo
knew it
but i think it was pretty obvious
my prediction in QoS when he could feel dorian stabbing her stands true - (context: i assumed they were mates bc of acotar + rhys and feyre under the mountain and amarantha...)
amazing storytelling on SJM's part - i thank her 100000000x over
BUT FUCK maeve and her evil valg ass!!!!!!!! she is so miserable i want to rip my own hair out!!!!!!!!!!!!
★★★★
maeve 🔪🔪🔪🔪
FUCK HERRRRRRRR
not even just with aelin + rowan - but yes, believe me i am enraged by her taking aelin. enraged. BROKEN.
but with fenrys. no no no noooon no no noooo. no.
i actually am so heartbroken for him. SHE KEPT HIS BLOOD OATH INTENTIONALLY. as his greatest punishment would be enslavement to her forevermore
NO
she is the worst mf ik
gods.
and the way she dropped lorcan + gavriel
which i fully believe will end up biting her in the ass eventually
but she did it so ruthlessly
i hate her forever for it
i hate her forever for all that she's done
LYRIA and rowan )))): you have to be another level of demon to do what she did to all of them
she doesn't get a single additional bullet point - i hope she BURNS
★★★★
lysandra + aedion 🐉
ugh gals, gays, and theys - these two play with my heart strings! 🤧
LYSANDRA in this book!
wow she was on fireeee without having the power of fire LOL
she is so unbelievably powerful
i was so nervous for the entirety of EoS that something seriously damaging would happen to her
still worried that it'll be her that sjm takes
or aedion
equally worried about aedion
BUT
i feel like he is unjustly taking it out on lysandra - i think his anger is actually more directed at aelin for forming all these plans without him
i think he blames himself for her being taken
and not being able to do anything
and because aelin isn't there and because they have to maintain a specific image for their allies, his frustration is wrongfully put on lysandra
"if lysandra had told me then i would've known to watch out for her/would've been there..." blah blah blah
bUT i have hope for the two
that they'll rekindle
that aedion's "hunt" will actually be over
and tbh that he'll get over the ego
that lysandra and evangeline will find a home in him (": i hope i hope i hope
tbh i'm gonna go out on a limb here and dare say there are mates
aedion pretty much his entire life has breathed every breath for the sake of aelin; to protect, serve, etc. we know this. she was perfect... until lysandra had to fight the sea wyverns
in which case aedion "...for the first time, [he] hated his cousin" (Maas, 334) - lol hello mla format.
he is unbelievably attached and i am here for it 👏🏽
★★★★
manon + dorian 💋
this book did them so much justice
and thank god for that
i feel like it's wildly appropriate for their relationship that the physical intimacy is as fire-y and passionate and intense as it is
i think they will both find a balance in one another
AHHHHHHHH i could scream forever i love them
pg 426 for some good manorian cheeky goodness
dylan o brien fans 👀 i hear u i recognize u i see you
but gods MANON yes!!!! yes!! i was so scared for asterin after the attack on rifthold and i felt myself get angry at manon in fear that she wasn't gonna do anything to stop it!!!
but of course she did!!!
and of course the bestest boy, abraxos saved her life and found her 13
i could cry cry cry cry (i am a cancer moon all these tears are normal)
also, okay slay crochan queen
sorry u killed ur sister... /:
lol
but glad you tried to kill ur gma! maybe one day manon girl
no joke, i would fall to my knees for manon she is the fucking coolest
and dorian too
he is hot asF in this book. and for me, he was kinda flying under my radar until this book and i was like holy fuck he is hottttt!!!! sexy!!!! being possessed does things to a man LOL
they r mates too, guaranteed
no way they're not
★★★★
elide + lorcan 🎡
elide and aelin's reunion made me sob
i cried so hard
i love them both, im grateful to elide for her love and determination towards aelin
and i so respect aelin for being so real and humble, her gratitude towards elide and her true grief for marion
elide, lady of perranth
HELL YES GIRLFRIEND
SLAYYYY ALL DAAAYYYYY
aint no man gonna lay a hand on you because u r a badass bitch
sigh and lorcan
such a wish-washy male
i am still SO angry at him for calling maeve
i am curious about them (cadre - rowan, gavriel, lorcan, and fenrys) all gravitating towards aelin and her power
(because aeline really is that GIRL - IMMORTAL !!!)
but he is definitely bonded with elide
100%
and you know, maybe some people are bored of SJM's mating usage
and the build up: enemies to lovers, change of heart, blah blah blah
let me stop you right there - I EAT IT UP.
each time it is exciting and exhilarating
sigh this is getting to be too long
my summary on elide and lorcan: elide is a definite YAY... lorcan has potential
we shall see
★★★★
HONORABLE MENTIONS!!!
YAYAYAYAY ansel!!!! she's backkkkkk hip hip hooray. and she is lighter (: less grief, less anger. so happy to see it. and her armadas HAH
also the silent assassins
god all of the allies showing up had me covered in goosebumps
...
aelin is so fucking powerful its unreal
i love asterin still!!!! she is so fun and empowering
...
wtf is up with aelin or dorian having to die because of stupid stupid elena
i feel like they'll figure a way out of it, a different way to stop erawan
OR
...well like rowan, i wont allow myself to consider that LOL
and omg lysandra knowing
how did she swallow that pill, i wonder
i bet it broke her heart just as much as everyone else's - and the burden of carrying it amongst her family
ugh she would have carried it all for aelin
sigh
so sad
...
i feel like there is SO much more i need to say but this is unbelievably long
if you are still reading...
wow i love you
thank you for being so curious into my brainwaves
it's a crazy ride in this noggin
thanks for joining!!!!
ONE MORE BOOK. 986 pages. and then my life will be a big fat ???????
ugh
i shall keep you posted
ps: the sticky notes really took over for this one. love it. scratches that itch so good!
★ Which book in the Throne of Glass series is your favorite? I know it tends to be Heir of Fire or Kingdom of Ash for most people, but my favorite is Tower of Dawn. In fact, my unpopular opinion is that Chaol is one of my favorite characters in the series and I am so glad Tower of Dawn became a full length novel, rather than a novella! I love all of the other books in the series though, they’re each fantastic in their own ways. My next favorites would be Empire of Storms, Kingdom of Ash, and Heir of Fire … I can’t narrow it down!

Wanted to share this illustration as soon as I could. This is a commission I did for @shanialockwood and I’m so so proud with how the final piece came out. I’m in love with the end result. This character is Aelin Galathynius from the Throne of Glass series by @therealsjmaas. Hope you like this illustration of her as much as me, since so many of you asked me if I was going to do a ToG fanart. Enjoy it!💛🔥
I love how both Feysand and Rowaelin went from enemies to friends to lovers and prioritise their partners’ mental health. QOTD: Who are some of your favourite ships/couples? . .

He peered into her eyes, scanning them. "Do not make the mistake of believing me to be a romantic fool. I do not hold any shred of hope for her."
"Then that does not seem like love at all."
"And what do you know of love?" He was so close--had neared without her realizing it.
"I think love should make you happy," Elide said... "It should make you into the best possible version of yourself."
"Are you implying I am neither of those things?"
"I don't think you even know what happiness is."
His face grew grave-thoughtful. "I do not mind... being around you."
"Is that a compliment?"
A half smile cut across his granite-hewn face.
“You could rattle the stars," she whispered. "You could do anything, if only you dared.” - Throne of Glass . . 🌟QOTD: what’s the longest series you’ve read? . . Hello friends and happy #stacksaturday well I mean kind of…lol more like a sideways stack but I still love it! Throne of Glass was definitely the longest page count series I think I’ve read although a few others definitely come close!! I struggled a bit to push through but I am so so glad I did because I absolutely loved this series!! I had no idea when I read the first book what this series would turn into and looking back on it I’m still so amazed that I thought it was this simple book about a competition…hahaha boy was I wrong!!!
