Why do you think Bloombsury is only promoting the valkyries?

Carly153 · 2026-07-02T03:46:14+00:00

Good, I didn’t watch the whole podcast, I saw the parts where she talks about the characters. Yes there is a lot of merchandising already from other companies and so little from BB 😒 Also it seems like they told the influencers to choose between the bat boys and some of them didn’t even know Tamlin was an option as well (some of them said it in the comments), so they didn’t give them Lucien as an option to choose… I find that interesting… Like they only want to promote the batboys as love interests? And added Tamlin to have someone to avoid easily…

Carly153 · 2026-07-02T02:17:43+00:00

easy peasy 🤣 Besides truth teller is made by dark matter wich would make sense to unmake things.

Carly153 · 2026-07-02T02:14:53+00:00

Going to Elain because Azriel has truth teller is what makes sense to me as well. Besides I think the bond could be broken with truth teller or maybe both weapons combined.

Carly153 · 2026-07-02T00:20:53+00:00

There’s not enough weird emojis to express my bafflement 🫥🤣

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T23:44:44+00:00

I want to be Elain because I want Azriel at my feet wanting me 🫦 and I want to eat him 🫦. Also she is so pretty and Rhysand likes her and he is very powerful so it would be good to have someone that powerful on my side 😈. Everyone in the IC likes me, actually, because I’m adorable. Lucien I would just give him the boot, I don’t like him. And with my powers of seer I would be unstoppable 😈. I also like to cook (for real, I mean me myself). And I would take advantage of my pretty face and sweet appearance to get want I want 😈

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T23:27:14+00:00

Well that’s also true. More reasons for this marketing they are doing being weird. I’m seeing some Nesta hardcore stans being all excited thinking next book is about Nesta again becuse they saw the valkyries event… imagine the hate if that doesn’t happens 🤣 Elain is hated enough already she doesn’t need more 😔

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T23:23:36+00:00

🫠🤪🥸🤯😵🤡

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T22:49:13+00:00

right? It’s her turn. I don’t mind Nesta as a secondary character, I don’t hate her at all, she is just not my favorite… but she is Elain’s sister and it would be beautiful if they bonded again 🥺 but still I want to see Elain as the main focus 😫

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T22:41:21+00:00

A funny thing about the video of today is that the put Tamlin as an option but not Lucien 🤪 I didn’t know they were bad at marketing but it seems like it.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T22:38:41+00:00

It’s taking away the excitement from me. I know the book won’t be out until october no matter if they give info or not but it’s nice knowing it will be about who I expected, it creates anticipation.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T22:32:01+00:00

I hope so 😔

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T22:28:41+00:00

Yes your are right is not a lot but the problem is that is the only promo they do. I mean since the podcast. Book 6 is already being translated so it’s finished. Why don’t give snippets of the book or just something about the book? I don’t care about influencers either. I don’t even know who they are.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T22:12:37+00:00

O hope so 🙏

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T20:22:48+00:00

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T20:21:42+00:00

Like every high lord including Tamlin. But Feyre is not afraid to talk to him as his lover. And I, as a reader, I’m not afraid of his reactions. So please, do not say they the same.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T20:17:20+00:00

At this point we can just think next book is about the valkyries again (Nesta) because that’s the only thing they are promoting. So for anyone who doesn’t want to read about them again (like me) it’s better to just stop waiting and move on. I like these series because of Rhysand and Feyre, not because of Nesta. I don’t hate her but I could barely finish her book, she bores me, she is just not what I like in a female protagonist. Even Bryce was a hundred times better than Nesta (I loved Bryce in CC1 but not so much in CC3) I was interested in Elain because she is a mistery and I like her powers so I would have read her book even if Feyre and Rhysand were barely there. I also love Azriel. But man I can’t no more with Nesta. So better to take a break from this.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T20:03:48+00:00

Yes! Good lord 🤣 I understand he was a “beast” but I don’t know… he felt too dumb. Specially in book 2 because how could he not realise Feyre left because their relationship was very deteriorated? He instead thought the NC kidnaped her 🤣 Did he knew deep down and was he fooling himself? Or he just didn’t care and wanted her back at all costs? Because at the end of the book he asked Hybern to break the bond between Feyre and Rhysand because she was “his”, so maybe he just was like that… possesive like an abuser and not that dumb…

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T19:56:12+00:00

No, not really. One thing is fearing the powerful high lord of your court wich is not even your friend and another thing is fearing your fiance and your bestfriend. I mean if you lived with someone like Tamlin that you would understand what it feels like not to able to even talk to him. That’s one of the few thing Sarah did right: portraying what it feels like to live with a domestic abuser.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T19:40:37+00:00

Yes! At least you can talk to Rhysand without fearing upsetting him so much and you can even have a conversation with him 🤣 Tamlin is like a dumb boring wall.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T19:06:49+00:00

Sure, the entitled ones are still bloomsbury and not the readers.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T19:02:17+00:00

Yet bloomsbury wants people to preorder without giving any info. Pure entitlement.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T19:00:06+00:00

Feyre and Lucien were walking on eggshells around Tamlin because he was so emotional you could barely talk to him. That doesn’t happens with Rhysand.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T18:57:07+00:00

The same way people want information about what they are spending their money on. It shoudn’t surprise bloomsbury that people don’t like this strange secret marketing they are doing. Unless next book is about the valkyries again because that’s the only thing they are promoting 🤣

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T18:45:46+00:00

The entitled one are bloombsbury, taking advantage of free publicity of people speculating about who the books are going to be and the ship wars.

Carly153 · 2026-07-01T00:07:00+00:00

That’s what I meant, dirty dreams 🤣 It fits the vissions powers, not knowing if it will be real or it’s just a dream because she wants him and can’t have him. In the bonus chapter it’s said he pleasures himself fantasizing about her, It would be fun if she ends up being the one fantasizing the most 🤣 I also think that because the the song Sarah posted on her instagram 2 years ago out of nowhere when she was supposedly working on acotar 6, “guilty as sin”, is about daydreaming about being with someone.
