Why tf is she so hot headedly stupid, goddamn

Solar plexus, solar plexus, solar plexus. Enough already 😅
A thought occurred to me. Maybe Stella Bloom's narration is actually the reason I've been so irritated by Saeris. Or maybe it's a combination of both this and her actions. But gods, there's a not so fine line between a strong character and a whiney petulant one. And I can't exactly pinpoint what makes Saeris' into the 2nd

Holy crap she pisses me off at every turn 😠 help.

This chapter pissed me the f off.. Saeris' quickly losing ranks in my fave FMC book. Rapidly joining Feyre with her dumbass decisions. Thank God Edina foresaw she'd be a dimwit.

This chapter also proved something I've dreaded too : when given a task, Saeris does NOT proactively work towards it. Instead she waits until it's been given directly in her hands like a hot loaf straight out of the oven. Infuriating

Chapter 20 made me think of that one spicy chapter in The Was of Two Queens from FBAA lol

Am I insensitive for thinking loudly that Saeris completely forgot about Hayden and made her peace about not being to see him again ? 😂 In book 1 i could understand because of the oath bound, but now it seems her objective took another turn 😂

Continues almost right where we left off in the previous book 👍🏻

Btw why does Saeris keep saying "frisson"? It's way too out of place to be using french words in a fantasy world that speaks 'commonly' common Fae. One, because it has no place in it, and two, because it gives off a bougie, haughty vibe, which not only clashes with Saeris' personality, but also with her background 🤨
