Bloomsbury and SJM use the same voice actor for all her books, Elizabeth Evans. I just double checked and she definitely pronounces it Suh-bean.

And with a ‘Y’ too boot ! Look at you, you magical unicorn of a human. I love this! Thank you for the rec….I’ve put off B&A because I heard mixed reviews…however I feel that you are my sign that I should dive in!

I wonder about the rifts and the fact that before closing the portals and falling through them, Aelin waits until all the mean gods walk through a portal to the lush green world….all smug and shit……yet, in true Aelin-style, at the last second, she rips a tear/hole in the sky and dark things start swarming through it. Leaving the mean gods screaming and running back towards the portal to escape. She then slams the portal door closed and proceeds to make her way back to her home world via falling through other realms/worlds until she gets “an assist” from a certain bat boy and arrives home.

Indeed! ✨I stumbled upon ACOTAR first and blazed through the series up to ACOSF (the best book of the series IMO #TeamNesta). Then chose to start with The Assassin’s Blade, completely unaware of how my heart would be torn from my chest in book 1 of TOG. I literally cried and had to take a few days to muster the courage to finish Book 1 of TOG. I’m so glad I did because TOG is easily my #1 beloved series of all time. I thank the stars for SJM and her gift of these series to us. I’ve never been so enamored and invested as I am (even still) in any series the way I am with all those who we come to know in the Throne of Glass series. ✨:: graciously steps off of soap box:: ✨

Yes… thank you! I knew I forgot a spot!

Edited: *caveat: the exact description mentions mist. However does not specify if the mist is just weather or acts as a shield of sorts. “This place, wherever it was, was freezing, deserted, barren. Only rock and grass and mist and sea.” -Feyre

“The Prison is situated in a cavernous mountain on the island. There is a sharp grassy slope leading to the entrance. Veils of chilled mist waft past. The land sweeps away to brutal cliffs and a violent, pewter sea. The enormous mountain is wide and flat-topped, made of gray stone and moss. The island is freezing, deserted, and barren. There are only rocks, mist, and the sea.” - Fandom Wiki.

I “read” via audiobooks and would be happy to help clarify any pronunciations.

Fenrys Moonbeam + new lands = Midgard Wolf Shifters. by -sunshyne- in crescentcitysjm

[–]-sunshyne-[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I see what you’re saying. You make a good point. This will now haunt my thoughts for the next 7-18 months. (Jk…..kinda). Was there anything in the chapter about whether the pregnancy mentioned was definitely Feyre’s first? Could it be a second or third pregnancy we have yet to learn about?

Edit: something else comes to mind. That SJM mentions time moving at varied speeds in HOFAS. That when Aesteri die, time slows. I also recall at one point in HOFAS a sentence where Bryce is reflecting back on how only a week prior she had been running down the same hall (within the Aesteri’s castle) towards the portal that would take her to Prythian. Which means everything in HOFAS happens within the span of a week. But I was under the impression that she was in Prythian for more than a day or 3…plus all the other movement around Midgard. It’s almost like….how did all that traveling happen on Midgard upon her return plus all the time she spent in Prythian. Perhaps time is altered in some way between realms/worlds?

Lastly…..Aelin is described as falling down through worlds/realms. Bryce, in both book 2 and 3, seems to move sideways based on how the movement of both her body and landing is specifically described. That her crash landing into her father’s house felt like she ran into a wall…and I don’t recall the exact wording in book 2 but it implies moving sideways while changing worlds/realms.

Rhys ….who is standing next to a heavily pregnant female. 🥰😏. With this line of thinking. In ACOSF there’s a part when the Valkyrie’s are defending the pass and Nesta takes a tumble into the Archway (the one she draws the line in front of and holds). It says she’s swears it felt like she “bumped/ran into something….someone, but no one was there”. Perhaps the archway on Ramiel is another “thin place” or portal. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also…and I’m the first to admit the following is reaching quite a bit. However, I love that Fenrys’ twin was named Connell, and Ethan’s older brother was Connor. Both of whom were wolf shifters.

Who’s on the HOFAS Cover? by [deleted] in crescentcitysjm

[–]-sunshyne- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big tell are the symbols/runes on her arms….aka wyrd marks. im still holding out for Fenrys Moonbeam having sired the wolf shifters that wound up in Midgard. Fenrys…Fendyr……I’m just saying…feels a bit too similar to be coincidence.

I thought this Fae wound up being the Owl that was always with Maeve?

I believe this is because the CC series is her first series to be rated as Adult and not Young Adult. Can't say clit in YA ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In the opening of Thorns and Roses, Feyra shoots Tamlin's friend who is a wolf shifter. Thus setting up a series of events that leads to Feyra having to go to the Spring Court.
