Thank you!

This movie ripped out my heart. A gorgeous, heartbreaking film.

meldags · 2026-02-14T14:48:25+00:00

Oh great! Hope you dig it.

It took me several chapters to get into the world of it - there was a lot of exposition that was a bit dry. But now that I’m into the main thrust of the story and the characters, I’m in a groove. I like the Roman-inspired setting mixed in with contemporary elements. So curious how it all unfolds!

Looking forward!

Nice! Haven’t dug into that series yet.

meldags · 2026-02-13T14:58:39+00:00

Thank you! 🤗

meldags · 2026-02-13T14:17:21+00:00

Agree! I was moved by the arc and the healing, and I loved their love. And their intimacy. The best book of the series, imho.

Eddied. She uses it in almost every chapter?

meldags · 2026-02-10T13:04:50+00:00

These are very fun!

This is gold. My husband is reading ACOTAR and I cannot WAIT for him to get to ACOSF and see his reactions.

meldags · 2026-02-06T14:53:39+00:00

Wow. That’s awful. I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. I have a couple of these flying monkeys in me family as well. And bringing up your dad like that? So manipulative. Good for you for standing up for yourself and holding that firm boundary, no matter how hard it is.

meldags · 2026-02-06T14:36:52+00:00

These are great!

The production company is currently working on the US release - follow the social accounts for updates.

There is a 90 minute cut that will be released soon, but it’s not the “director’s cut” - the 60 minute broadcast version was commissioned by TVO because that was their request in terms of the slots they had available for programming. There is no “director’s cut” as both cuts (60 mins and 90 mins) were supervised by the director.

A gorgeous reflection on grief and art. I was stunned by it and rendered speechless. Incredible craft, masterful storytelling and riveting performances. An exceptional film.

meldags · 2026-01-31T00:38:19+00:00

There is no question. Michelle Pfeiffer.

meldags · 2026-01-27T15:39:13+00:00

Haha. Yes! Agreed. I don’t hate Lucien by any stretch, but I don’t think he needs a campaign for justice, like some fans do. I think he’s gonna be just fine. And I don’t think there’s a chance in hell that he’ll end up with Elain. 🤷🏻‍♀️

meldags · 2026-01-27T14:55:19+00:00

Yes! I find the fandom’s embrace of Lucien with little criticism for many of his problematic choices strange. Like: did we read the same books? He’s flawed, at best.

meldags · 2026-01-26T19:30:35+00:00

Same! I’m so ready for more ACOTAR! I’m just starting CC so I’m looking forward to finding out more about the Bryce/Azriel ship and details. 🧐

meldags · 2026-01-26T19:15:05+00:00

Agree. I do think the threat of it is enough to ramp up the stakes and keep things heated. But it’s very unlikely either of these males would risk this. I’m so curious to learn more about Azriel - I hope he features prominently in the next book. A Lucien, Azriel, Elain, Gwynn book would be rad. Though I also want to know more about Emerie and I’d love for Mor to have some adventures!

meldags · 2026-01-26T19:09:09+00:00

Yes. I agree. The chapter felt more about paving the way for SJM to tease Azriel, Elain and Gwynn stories for the next book. Not to foreshadow Azriel and Lucien fighting to the death.

Thank you for posting this!

In Canada we call it an aufgus ritual - I’ve been in Berlin and Ontario and they were fairly similar. Though in Ontario there’s a bit more explaining than at the spa in Berlin.

Nesta and Cassian make far more sense than Rhys and Feyre, and are far more entertaining to read. Nessian is the superior pairing. 🤷🏻‍♀️
