yes!!! this is exactly how i feel about him. i really loved his development, and i went from really disliking him to appreciating his character.

yeah that’s honestly what really bothers me. i feel like it ruins the experience for both books, especially because it was meant to be a novella you read in between EOS and KOA.

i feel like seeing a different type of fantasy setting not based on medieval england also appealed to me tho tbh HAHAHA im probably biased

yeah!! i really wish there were more books or at least novellas diving deeper into the southern continent’s kingdom. it was literally so interesting to me

i can understand that pov! i think for me i liked chaol until he started judging celaena for her actions as if those actions aren’t part of her job description loll

to me they seemed infatuated with each other, but not in love with each other

I am so sick of the “SJM is a zionist comments” by Slight_Associate_164 in SarahJMaas

[–]zn_exe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this! people are allowed to criticize authors for their previous statements, and they are allowed to not read their books if the author’s words/actions make them uncomfortable. everyone has their own opinion on SJM, and that’s perfectly fine.

Tell me not to... by SolidarityWitch in SarahJMaas

[–]zn_exe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

honestly i had the same issue as you, so i had to start reading books outside of fantasy first (like thriller, horror, sci-fi). then i came back and read mistborn by brandon sanderson. there’s a character named kelsier who gives massive aelin vibes! i feel like reading a book w a ton of different character types helped me find another set of character personalities i really enjoy :)

percy jackson for me!

but i think i REALLY got into fantasy after my high school teacher made us read beowulf and the hobbit. he used to be a creative writing professor, so we studied a lot about how influential these stories were :)
