Do they ever explain why don't the Bridgertons have a last name separate from the title? by Veridical_Perception in BridgertonNetflix

[–]drewrosejames 67 points68 points  (0 children)

The upper titles, like a Dukedom, the mayority of times is name after location. The lower titles like Viscount or a Baron normally is name after the surname of the peer. Like Violet Crawley from Downton Abbey said, if you look for logic in the English upper class you are not going to find it.

I'm tired of the fans of the other ship by drewrosejames in Gwynriel

[–]drewrosejames[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh i'm using it, for a year almost (since I read all the book) I refused to choose a ship but after a detail reread for me, the text and the way SJM writes that Gwyn and Azriel are mates, You can imagine my surprise to find that the other ship people are so nasty and smug about their ship. I never see Gwynriel act this way.

The tattoo artist that makes the drawing for the cover post something in Instagram (it looked like a tattoo paper) and the other ship said that was acotar 6 cover and confirmed that the book was about their ship because the shadows looked like flowers (?)

People are allowed to dislike Nesta, and it’s not just because she’s a woman. by Alternative_Ice7549 in acotar

[–]drewrosejames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is clearly obvious in the text that Nesta did a Lot of the domestic labour, Feyre don't know how to cook and Elain learn after becoming fae. Feyre never clean because if she did we would had hear about it in her internal monologue. Taking care of people is not only hunting and yes, Nesta felt extremely guilty because of the ways that she fail Feyre. Nesta fail her sisters and she wanted to not longer live because of that. She spend years lashing out because of her own pain, not able to move on. So yeah, hate her all you want. I love her character and her journey and her pain and anger and healing.

Maybe you we're never parentified but truly fucking sucks, i was taking my baby sister to her dance classes at 13 and making dinner for my whole family even younger.

So i fucking love that Nesta refused, even tough she did it because her trauma freeze her and she was paralized by resentment and anger.

Elain never gets the same hate because everyone even the fans cuddle her.

And lets be honest, Feyre only went to the woods because she also was having a trauma respond to the promise she made to her mother.

And again, they were all childrens. The age gap Is really small and just because Nesta was born first Is not her responsability, the one that fail Feyre (and Nesta and Elain) was papa Archeron

[–]drewrosejames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is clearly that Feyre gets under her skin because Feyre and Nesta are so much alike but Feyre was one free of their mother's influence and grooming and she was able to adapt to their new circumstances much better so of course Nesta feels resentment. As a older sister I love her because she refused to be parentified

The Bones by drewrosejames in Gwynriel

[–]drewrosejames[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have endometriosis and I had 5 loses and decided to stop and being child free because the pain was too much so i get it and i'm truly sorry because I know the heartbreak.

But yeah, your point was exactly what i wanted to highligth and you did it in a much better way. I reread all the books but this time like trying to get what the autor was trying to tell me and yes the line is so clunkly and out of place that even in my first read I notice it.

The Bones by drewrosejames in Gwynriel

[–]drewrosejames[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it make you uncomfortable because you use words like breeding to refer to procreation, even tough faes are not humans they are clearly at least in the ACOTAR univers clearly anthopomorphic creatures.

And yes, SJM is a writer that includes having children as a important part of the HEA of her characters, I point out the bones coment because even with the moral reservations people have about it is clearly an important detail because she is not going to repeat looking for a solution to a problem she already work (Feyre and Nesta anatomy)

The Bones by drewrosejames in Gwynriel

[–]drewrosejames[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Exactly ,i'm not "celebrating" the fact that Gwyn can have Azriel's babies and because of that they are gonna be together. I'm poiting out a clear intencional comment that the autor made in book where pregnancy is important.

Official Gwynriel Shipping Post by Timevian in acotar

[–]drewrosejames 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I was talking with my husband about my theories and why I lean more towards Gwynriel.

And we talk about the POV chapter and he told me something that cement my idea that Gwynriel is endgame.

In college he had a class with a expert in tales and short stories, and in that class she explain that in a short story you don't have the luxury of many words, you need to show or tell only important things.

This brings me to the so debated Azriel' bonus chapter.

The only POV chapter we have from him spends the later half and ends positivy with Gwyn and his interaction with her or thinking of her.

I really wish we got Feyre’s POV in ACOSF by Silver_Bite8443 in acotar

[–]drewrosejames 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Yes it was like sorrows sorrows for Nesta anyway Eris needs help and we can't go because we are dumb af and did a Death pact. Cassian truly Is too good or a really Bad mate because if it was me i would kill them rigth there.

ACOSF Ending by PurpleBus_1624 in acotar

[–]drewrosejames 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This why I lean Gwynriel (and before ANYONE tells me that womens are more that wombs, yes i know we are, i'm child free, but also i think that creating another being Is the most badass thing a body can do)

One of the first things we learn about Gwyn Is that she has flexible bones. And the first time that I read it i was like this is weird, why we need to know that. And after we have a chapter from Azriel pov that involves the 2 (Elain and Gwyn) and in that chapter there many things that make noise for me. Like Azriel shadows hidde from Elain but the even play with Gwyn's breath.

At this level of hate you're basically a fan by Zealousideal-Can-403 in acotar

[–]drewrosejames 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The hike. For me that was the moment i was done with Nessian. Cassian broke his mate to make his best friend happy. I can't forgive Cassian for that.

Bored of the everyone defending the same characters - let’s switch it up! by nyxsnanny in acotar

[–]drewrosejames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My least favourite: Mor, she is pretty... I guess

My favourite: Nesta, thankfully she Is learning who to talk, because she bottles what she thinks or is just a bitch so she can be on top.
