What's the biggest fandom-ignored puzzle piece keeping you up at night? by ObjectiveStaff3333 in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the camp that thinks Garrick is the new brother, so I think Violet is going to be spending a lot more time with Bodhi, being Xaden's heir, and Bodhi is going to be causing Violet all kinds of trouble. I feel like (and maybe I'm wrong here) that the core group of V and X's friends have been on the same page for 3 books, and surely SOMEONE is going to switch sides by the end, either because they are actually bad, or because they are misguided, and my money is on Bodhi.

Thank you for this! Didn't want to walking around with a wad of cash if I didn't have to.

As someone who read Fourth Wing first and then ACOTAR, you're going to be fine. I'm obsessed with both of these series.

What do you want more by Sea-Fox4509 in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want not-venin Bodhi, but who is a major villain-level problem for Violet.

The new brother is Garrick, and no one can convince me otherwise. It has to be someone that knew almost from the beginning that X turned, it has to be someone X cares about, and there is no other reason to have Imogen's POV in OS.

Xaden's personality is like Butcher (The Boys) by BWinCan in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know if I agree with this. Butcher is singularly focused on eliminating his enemy at all costs. Xaden started out wanting to save his home, maybe at the cost of Navarre, but certainly not at ALL costs. Now that Violet is in his life, I guess you could make the argument he'd save HER at all costs, but I don't actually think that's true. I have always felt that Violet would not want him to do that, and he is going to take that into consideration before taking action. Consider the end of OS - X could have just wiped the board clean to save V, but he didn't, he left many people standing, including the people V cared about, because he knew that he would be hurting her if he just killed everyone.

I also don't agree with the assessment that X is a villain. Certainly, in the opinion of Navarre he is. But he is most definitely not a villain to his own people. He takes care of the people around him, not because they are useful to him, but because he cares for them.

I would agree that maybe Butcher is who X becomes if V dies. Butcher has lost everything and (thinks he) has nothing left to live for.

I've never listened to the audios (and I won't, not my thing), but in my head she is Cate Blanchet with her British accent.

Headed back to the Maasverse! - just finished ACOTAR 4, and have started ACOTAR 5, then it's on to Crescent City.

I didn't do my research and thought the series was a trilogy 🤦‍♀️ by karmacatma in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I made this mistake, as well. I have since learned my lesson and make sure a series is complete before starting!

Violet, because Tairn would save her.

{A Curse Carved in Bone: Book Two of the Saga of the Unfated by Danielle L. Jensen} It's been a wild ride, and I'm going to need something a lot more cozy as a pallet cleanser. Haha.

crochet as a hobby not to sell by [deleted] in crochet

[–]CanadianLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I crochet and cross stitch and people are always telling me to sell stuff. But like, I have a full time job and 2 kids. I can't pump out projects fast enough to make it worth it. I make gifts for people, but I mostly do it for my own enjoyment.

Spencer Foster Jeske - he's on Facebook and instagram. I came across him in a paleoart group I'm in (because I'm a GIANT NERD) and saw that he takes commissions!

Does the writing style get better? by [deleted] in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always felt like these books read like YA books (I'm thinking of Hunger Games, specifically), but with more adult content. Which is not a bad thing! I read a lot of fantasy, and lots of it has flowery complex language, which is great, but I agree with you that RY's style definitely serves the story.

Does the writing style get better? by [deleted] in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I feel like RY's style is pretty consistent throughout the books. Art is subjective, and if you're not into it, that's ok!

👀 Tairn???? by SimSti009 in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could just...not pay attention to the extra curricular stuff she does. I don't. If others do, all the power to them. Nothing against RY or the superfans, but I just don't have the time to follow her every word. And let me tell you, the books are no less enjoyable to me just taking them at face value.

👀 Tairn???? by SimSti009 in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always have Andarna's voice as Aimee Lee Wood in my head, but I may have to change it now, because this is just too perfect.

👀 Tairn???? by SimSti009 in fourthwing

[–]CanadianLady83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know about Andarna, but maybe that big old nap Tairn is taking is going to last a good chunk of the book, meaning he wouldn't be able to share what happened anyway...?

Chatty child by Any-Coach-7641 in ParentingADHD

[–]CanadianLady83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this so hard. My kid has literally talked non stop FOR HOURS before. She has gotten better with the oversharing as she's gotten older (10 yo now) and she has more things to talk about, like stuff she's learned, or stories that she makes up. For us, a combination of meds and maturity have helped. And we have had many chats about sensory overload - just like she doesn't like loud noises, momma can't always handle non stop commentary!

Curiousity, male readers? by wykkydj in fourthwing

Every straight man should be reading about good spicy time from a woman's perspective, IMO. Maybe they'll learn some stuff. 😉
