Bookish Kingdom discussion

haha, nope! I'm currently on ACOMAF and I'm loving it so far. Planning on getting ACOWAR signed :)

also, do you mind if i (or you) change the overall topic to cover the whole series? it would just kinda be weird (and bother me and my ocd) to have a thread for each book haha

I'm almost 200 pages in. Last thing I remember reading about is (view spoiler)[Feyre having a nightmare right after having dinner with Rhysand and his circle. (hide spoiler)] (not a huge spoiler, but just in case :) )

yesss I already ordered the bookbox with ACOWAR! I can't wait!!!

OMG YES I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

I preordered it as soon as it was available on Amazon. All things will stop once that book arrives. Of course, I'll have to reread the first two...

Now I'm at the part where (view spoiler)[Feyre sent the letter to the Spring Court (after watching Rhys and Azriel question the Attor) (hide spoiler)] :)

Oh wow, you finished it already? I still have 100 or so pages left in ACOMAF. (please don't spoil anything!) :)

I read the first two, the first ...uhh, the only reason I read the second was because of Rhysand so you know my feels about the second.

I'm waiting to read the third, one because I'll be reading it alone and won't have anyone to fan girl with...and two I know I will devour it and then what? It'll be gone! Lol

I actually didn't like Rhysand in the first book, but somehow he had a change of character in the second, and I really like him now. That being said, I actually like the newer characters more than him. My favorite is either Amren or Mor.

I liked him for the part he played in the first, to me he was better than Amarantha as far as an antagonist/villain went. You knew there was more to it, you knew there was something... by the second book I was blown away as far as characters and world went. I detested Feyre in the first book and it was remedied by the second..

Sooooo I'm making myself wait and finish up some ARCs before I tackle this personal read lol

Me too! One thing I don't really like about SJM's writing is how she manages to turn a good person into someone that you end up hating. Maybe that was how it was supposed to be all along, but it just seemed really... I'm not even sure how to describe it. Disappointing? I guess?

I really liked Tamlin and I loved him with Feyre, but now... I guess I like Feyre with Rhysand, but I'm still disappointed with the fact that I hate Tamlin now.

Okay can I just say that I don't like Tamlin but I feel like people handle extreme stress different ways and SJM does a fantastic job of showing that! The way he handled his stress was unhealthy and scary and he bottled things up instead of talking about them which led to (view spoiler)[the Blow Up™ between him and Feyre. I don't think he was a bad person, he just hardcore needed some counseling or something.

MAN I wish we would have gotten some solid closure on Tamlin. In a perfect world, I would've gotten closure on Tamlin, Lucien, and Azriel.

Do you guys feel like maybe the book was rushed? (hide spoiler)]

I thought I wouldn't like the series, especially since everyone said it was better than the Throne of Glass series. I even read the book cover and I didn't seem too into it. However, I started reading the series, and I loved it! I loved Rhysand since the beginning and I really feel that the character development was really good.

I'm almost done with the book and I'm in love with it so far.

From someone who doesn't like the Throne of Glass series (I'm sorry I just never got into it) I wasn't expecting to like this but I loved it! :D

Do not read before you have finished the last book!
(view spoiler)[Am I the only one who was disappointed that NOBODY dies? I mean come on, it is just not realistic, even people who were supposed to die just magically came back again. How Rhysand got resurrected was just a repetition of book 1. In a good battle people need to die in my opinion. Is that weird?Or does anyone else agree? (hide spoiler)]

In a response to the Minx and Cordelianne. Do not read until you have finished the series!

Also, does anyone else struggle with the pronunciation in this series, because for me unless its laid out in the beginning of the series like Fey-ruh, I am hopeless as far as changing a word from what it sounds like in my head? :)

I have a question; how does one have a spoiler-y comment and have it show if you click the show spoiler link? I attempted that, and it did not work.

Click on add (some html is ok) at the right of this typing box. Look for the one that says spoiler, copy the format they use there and fill in what you want to say on the dots. It can be that the spoilers does not work on the mobile phone app, but they should work on the real website. Also you can only see the spoiler in the original and not in the onces they link back to that spoiler. I hope this helps :)

Thank you!
