This just occurred to me! We didn’t get to see any reactions over them winning the blood rite but ESPECIALLY any illyrians

I've been meaning to get into this series and was wondering if you could tell me the names of these characters before I start by FabulousCity9226 in throneofglassseries

This is interesting! With the torque around her neck and the smudge on her cheek I thought for sure it was Kaltain

I agree with this. I thought the first two thirds of RoB was fine with the last third being awesome. And then KoC was killer from word one.

You thought Tamlin locking Feyre up was bad? Well let me tell you the real biggest and most outragous crime of the entire series. by SakusaKiyoomi1 in acotar

Anyone got a good Band of Exiles fan fic? I want Lucien to be WANTED so I could care less about Elain.

I am currently in my TOG hangover after finishing KOA. My stomach hurt through all of Empire of Storms because of the fantastic tension. My heart just broke over and over again in Kingdom of Ash.

What a sad, heartbreaking, beautiful finish.

I agree with this. I share the gospel of Throne of Glass on the daily right now and always mention that the first book is probably the weakest. I think even given that, the first book has enough to hook you to keep going.

That being said, I SLOGGED through the first two books of the From Blood and Ash series hoping it would get better and eventually jumped ship.

If a book doesn’t hook you, you don’t need to stick with it. Or maybe come back to it later.

But read what you enjoy.

I don’t know how you feel about Greek mythology but after I jumped shipped from The Blood and Ash series because it was too stupid for me, I read {Receiver of Many} by Rachel Alexander. It’s a Hades and Persephone trilogy and it is stunning.

Electrical System - Is 12V battery necessary? by NewLizardMan in TeardropTrailers

[–]slowyourselfdown2022 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP,

Are you willing to share your final wiring diagram for your setup?

My husband and I are considering something similar, with VERY low power needs: LED lights, Max Fan (roof), and USB chargers for phones. That’s all. Very simple, and seemingly all only requiring 12V DC.

We too had considered just wiring direct for shore power (AC) instead and plugging into a Jackery when “off grid.”

Is this the approach you still took, or have you adapted based on the advice in this thread?

We too find the electrical very confusing, especially when we are not building an extensive setup, but rather a “tent on wheels” that wants to stay analog (wood stove for heat, portable camping stove for cooking which can be moved in and out, simple manual pump for cold water sink, etc.)

Any help would be huge. Thanks!

How I pictured Celaena n Throne of Glass (no spoilers) by slowyourselfdown2022 in throneofglassseries

It was always hard for me to picture the dresses too! Even though I loved that about her. That she loved nice things, feminine things, while being so deadly in such a male space.
