RAISE YOUR HAND IF
you would rather read about Mor accepting herself entirely and unconditionally and growing comfortable in her sexuality; Nesta finding her way towards healing and self love and getting her revenge on the queens; Elain focusing on her personal growth and learning to healthily cope with being Fae and slowly getting used to her new found abilities.........instead of yet another uninspired, drab, unnecessary smut scene between Feyre and Rhysand

"acofas but every time sjm tries to portray rhysand as some sort of godlike male feminist and instead only succeeds in making him sound super creepy and unnecessarily involved, it gets faster"

If you're gonna hate read this I expect it to be a BR
(it's really not THAT special of a dress tho)
Okay, my own opinions about her books aside, SJM at this point is one of those famous/popular YA authors... so why the heck do her bookcovers keep being so underwhelming? I mean, this is one of the prettier ones if you only look to the left, but once you get a glimpse of the hand it's just "Yikes!". Just look at Cassie Clare's covers for comparison. HOW?
(Also side eyeing everyone who has already rated it. Jfc people.)

I've zoomed in now that you've mentioned it and yea i see what u mean, also the tattoes are showing from under the sleeves?? um what
the best and most unsurprising thing that can happen in this sequel is Feyre finding yet another love interest and comparing him to Rhys

I didn't get past book 1 but I agree ✋�
*raises hands* ✋🏼✋🏼and then *raises extra 2 hands* ✋🏼✋🏼 for good measure.
omg u forgot azriel !!!! XD yepp me dis is whyy i was disappointed by acowar...
I only want to hear about Azriel tbh.
At least the original trilogy were quick enjoyable reads (if not very substantial or too thoroughly thought out), but they had the benefit of novelty. I really hope this novella won't just be more fan service and the synopsis hinting at the shadows of those around Feyre would actually deal with some of the more complex issues Elain and Nesta and Mor etc. are still struggling with. :/
lmao I don't even want her to try to write queer characters anymore.....considering how acowar went that would be a fucking trainwreck
Emma wrote: "lmao I don't even want her to try to write queer characters anymore.....considering how acowar went that would be a fucking trainwreck"I don’t know whether to be like oh at least she tried (after that embarrassing lack of diversity in all senses of the word in ACOTAR) or just stuck in a perpetual eye roll at the... was it the Dawn High Lord?

omg FUCKING PREACH IT
and finally telling the peeps that Rhys ain't no "feminist icon" because just no. I hope Sarah ups her game real fast.
@Christy tbh I've blocked most of my memories of that book, but making the fact that one of your characters is biracial and another is bisexual both plot twists to add diversity at the end of a series? not a good look
Emma wrote: "lmao I don't even want her to try to write queer characters anymore.....considering how acowar went that would be a fucking trainwreck"I mean... you write what you know. I imagine it's difficult if you can't really speak from experience but people are also demanding diversity from you...
@Elizabeth framing the discussion on diversity in a way that portrays it as something being "demanded" is actually inaccurate and sort of vilifies marginalized people who just wish they could see themselves represented in more books. There were a lot of glaring issues with queer rep in ACOWAR specifically that could have easily been resolved by hiring sensitivity readers
As long as Lucien finds happiness! I'm� good
I don't expect her to write these characters perfectly, but I don't see how her massive advances couldn't allow for paying a handful of queer people to advise her on how to represent them respectfully
Emma wrote: "@Elizabeth framing the discussion on diversity in a way that portrays it as something being "demanded" is actually inaccurate and sort of vilifies marginalized people who just wish they could see t..."Oh gosh. Sorry, that was the wrong word. You're right! I suppose sensitivity readers would have done the trick. I just saw a lot of pretty nasty reviews, though I totally agree that it seemed very hastily thrown together and forced. Just a bit clumsy on her part. Hopefully she'll use the criticism constructively in the future.
Nesta is literally my favorite character and I enjoy overall character more than I enjoy Feyres. *insert cry face* I am PATIENTLY waiting for a book strictly with Nesta and her story and her thoughts and feelings.
Oh nooooo, not again. As much as I love Rhysand, I wanted to read about Mor or Azriel
I want Azriel to find his happiness.
Yes! Yes. I’m already cringing at the future sex scenes dammit
The sex scenes in ACOWAR just made me cringe??ACOTAR & ACOMAF were beyond amazing but ACOWAR was a huge disappointment.
My exact feelings @Tinja. I was hugely disappointed with ACOWAR. And I'd been so excited after the amazeballs ACOMAF =/ So I'll read this novella, but I'm certainly not getting my hopes up for anything spectacular
Then don't read it, there's a million books out there to read.

I stopped after reading the shitfest that was the first book but your reviews give me life 😂💖💖 I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks SJM is so overrated and also how the fuck do they win the goodreads choice awards every fucking year how??????
