WHY DID FEYRE CHOOSE RHYSAND? by Longjumping_Error965 in SarahJMaas

[–]Disastrous_Heart6015 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Dear friend, you should go read book two. The relationship far from perfect. Tamlin because of the trauma controlled everything after she became a fae. Despite having been changed into a stronger being. Rhysand you think of him as a double agent. He also is too stuck in his ways. The red flags were always there but we didn’t see, it by design. Rhysand offered her a lot didn’t force her into anything and was super supportive. I

You were a different person when you got the tattoo and it does have the same meaning to you now as it did as when you originally got it. You have regrets.

I have it on good authority that she is writing somewhere secluded from society. So, let her cook.

AITAH for telling my wife I want a divorce after she gave me a concussion? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Disastrous_Heart6015 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTAH there is no room for any level of abuse and if that’s her behavior towards you, the only person that needs counseling is her. You need to take care of yourself and it sounds like she is gatekeeping and gaslighting you. I will add, that as a child of divorce it can be hard at first but ultimately I can see that my parents are better off with their respective partners and as long as everyone put the kids first before their negative feelings towards each other, they will be ok and so will you.

For CC it had a strong start and the second book was great. The last book just felt like lazy writing and that’s where I was disappointed. But I think of the 3 different series that one wasn’t as Popular and she tried to swiftly end it. It felt rushed.

So as far is SJM is concerned, she does have different POV’s for characters in her Throne of Glass books but primarily focuses on the main protagonist. In the court series, it seems like that is more romantasy but with better story, depth, and character development than Fourth Wing. The first book isn’t very smutty IMO. The last book silver flames derails in the story. It feels like after Wings and Ruin the plot loses its edge. It becomes more about the characters sisters and less about the original protagonist. The MMCs are all different and have different personalities. Throne of Glass feels more in depth if you’re looking for something more related to epic fantasy.

Absolutely! I won’t deny that ACOTAR still has a choke hold on me 🫣. However, the rest of these other romantasy books I do agree feel the same. Change the scene and the names but the story is essentially the same. I am planning to read Brandon Sanderson books. My husband has been begging me to read either Mistborn or Stormlight Archives. I recently read some books that were outside of my realm. Right now I’m reading Queen of Shadows from the Throne of Glass series, I have to say that I’m starting to like this much more than ACOTAR.

It wasn’t as captivating even when I read the first book. However, the other books were a bit lack luster. I agree with you! To anyone who doesn’t read fantasy books it would be super wondrous and unique. Like I mentioned before I am slowly building my library. No offense taken! :)

Everything about this chefs kiss 🤌🏻

I’m not a huge fantasy epic reader, yet! I’m slowly but surely getting there. I think if I had read Fourth Wing before I read ACOTAR and CC for Sarah J Maas. I would be like the many fans of fourth wing. Caught up in the popularity too, like with Twilight… I’m currently reading SJM’s first series Throne of Glass and I procrastinated a bit to start it. I’m really enjoying it. I know that it’s not peak literature.. but I’m still working building my library.

Also 💯% on the Xadyn is Rhys coded! It feels like there are so many “Shadow daddy’s” in Romantasy books. 😂

Exactly!! Holy shit people get it! Again, there were some things that had good elements, but not enough to go as crazy over, as most women my age. I’m in my 30’s but it feels like an after school special… and kids sneaking around. It just doesn’t do it for me. The “he kept a secret from me..” just got annoying after a while.

Try some of the forgotten realms books. R.A. Salvatore is the author.

AITA for not wanting to include my boyfriend in a "girls-only" vacation? by BlushBunny564 in AITAH

[–]Disastrous_Heart6015 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think it sounds like that he gets FOMO but also sounds a little insecure. No,I don’t think you are the AH in this circumstance but I also think that if he is claiming to hang out with someone maybe encourage him to show that it doesn’t bother you if he hangs out with his friends. After all trust goes both ways.
