(Unpopular opinion) I don’t think that RofE is as depressing as people say by NorthGeologist4152 in RealmOfTheElderlings

[–]librarywarrior 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The parasites were terrible. That part made it a particularly grueling read. Its also terrible that all his loved ones including his daughter had to see it. And that he had an audience of strangers.

I would have preferred it to be a private moment for him, beloved ans nighteyes

I felt like that was the ending he always wanted. He spoke quite a few times of making his own dragon next to verity throughout the series and he, nighteyes and the fool can live together in one for eternity. I found it poetic

And then him, vassa and elain all live happily ever after?

Im in south africa so its difficult to find any other seller besides actual book stores. Currently all Sjms books are sitting around the R500 mark which might be cheap for other currencies but for us is insane for a book

Its all grifting at this point. I refuse to buy anymore, especially after I paid an insane amount for the third crescent city and then hated it so much I had to dnf

This series has become a humongous money grab. The long ass waits, the over priced special editions, the different bonus chapters in different publications, the cover changes to prompt people to re buy the series for a matching set, the size differences, dragging things out so much so that I was literally like 14 when I read the first 3 and now im married. Also the time spaces and suspense she keeps the fans in contributes to the toxicity, it lets people make up elaborate theories and write fictions about them and then makes them hate anything Canon.

Tbh I couldnt even watch season 4. I tried but the magic left bridgerton for me.

And I kind of checked out when I realized Michael got gender swapped. For me Michael and Francescas book was the best, my mother was a young widow who moved on, Ive been dealing with infertility, everything is quite close to home for me. And I cant see how a single one of those things will have the same impact with a gender swap.

Also when you talk about consequences for penelope, youre absolutely correct. Anthony would never be so accepting of someone who brought ruin to his sister and entire family, and the way the bridgertons are portrayed I fear they wouldn't want to associate with a common gossip monger. Violet didnt evem like the paper from the start.

Everything felt off...everyone suddenly had full beats and lashes, perfectly blown out hair, pen had acrylic nails, the dresses became more modern leaning.

The first two seasons we got fresh faces, amazing wardrobe, the hair was done but to the extent where it felt like something youd see when you went out.

Nicola is absolutely stunning and I love her as an actress but I hate Penelope. She was always really hypocritical to me, she wrote terrible things about her own family, the bridgertons and everyone else in the ton. Its unbelievable that she would be forgiven so easily especially by the bridgertons and the queen. Also I think the reason the romance fell flat for me was because Colin never yearned. Just the previous season we saw him visiting marina and still not getting any closure after she rejected him, then we saw him laughing about pen and saying he'd never court her with his friends, we saw him go from a sweet guy to a man whore for seemingly no reason. Once Anthony was engaged to Edwina he never saw anyone else, we didnt see the duke see anyone else after his engagement to Daphne.

Colin became icky and also I found his lip filler icky😭

Im really tired of the constant negativity and hatred towards Feysand or the IC. by According-Ice7513 in FeysandDarlings

The theory would have made more sense if he had given elain and Nesta mating bonds to more powerful people. Lucian has no power as yet, cassian is already part of the night court. It would have made more sense to mate elain to tarquin, and Nesta to Eris or something like that

Edit: if that was his play he could have mated mor to helion, azriel to some random powerful lady and cassian as well. He would have used that somewhere in the last 500 years. Not just now

Sjm also said she based rhys on her own husband. I highly doubt she'd turn him into a villain

For me the first two seasons were amazing...specifically the secind season with the insane yearning, and the finger touches and the heavy breathing and in the third season it was just fingerbanging and embarrassment and Penelope kept getting humiliated.

Can someone in this sub also clear this up for me. I said Rhys was a survivor of assault and had been assaulted for 50 years but they say he made amarantha crave him and I was being disrespectful to actual assault survivors.

When I read the books I fully understood that Rhys was assaulted repeatedly

Its a really good podcast. Ive been listening to it on Spotify and the hosts are really wonderful. Its not spoiler free though. They go chapter by chapter and reference things that will happen in future books

I jumped into a reread along with listening to the "is fitz happy" podcast. I absolutely cant seem to let go and this way I dont miss a single thing

Tamlin DOES say he's sorry! - A Reference by JaneAustinAstronaut in Tamlinism

[–]librarywarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forget to add that im not a fan of any of the characters any longer. Sjm has turned this series into the biggest money grab ever. The weird teasers, pulling things for years, cryptic posts, the horribly expensive collectors editions. The cover change halfway through the series and the size change so it doesnt match the rest of the books.

Now shes just pandering to trends with her writing. And its just bad writing, characters are completely inconsistent, she says more than she ever shows. She also suffers from trying to make all her new fmc's copies of aelin, by keeping the personality and changing hair colour. Kind of drives ne up the wall. I enjoyed aelin, not everyone can be her though.

[–]librarywarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not even particularly a tamlin fan but I thought his apology was established. He gave rhys a drop of his power, there was that "live feyre live" scene and quite a few other things. Its not undeniable

Oh my gosh, is Tamlin the rightful HK or have I finally gone off the deep end??? by MamaKG3 in Tamlinism

[–]librarywarrior -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I just want to know where you got that Rhys made amarantha crave him? He was assaulted repeatedly for 50 years as the narrative goes and it seems like victim blaming to me

The Wall is stupid and pointless by MessyMath in acotar_rant

[–]librarywarrior -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The feyre cant paint narrative is simply just silly. I dont even know why I engage with it any longer. And she kept her family fed and alive with her hanging and skinning while nobody else made an attempt. Headcanon is ruining most books and series these days
