…slay?

16 hours into the audiobook and one of them finally acknowledged they’re in love with the other
Talk about a slowburn

Fellas is it gay to marry your royal guard in a dank cellar in order to save him after you lied about his standing in the royal hierarchy?

Useless gays (they kissed to avoid getting caught sneaking around in an alley and they’re both too into each other and stupid to process it)

Evemer really said everything BUT “do you need a hug and can I give you one”

Hawke is a slut and ‘pEnElLoPhE’ is still an annoying virgin

Is the thing that radicalizes the mc really going to be a random couple that has to give their son to the priesthood? Not the murders or the weird way “lords and ladies” suddenly become immortal for no reason or even the magic must outside the city?? Just a random couple who want to keep their kid and the duke says no?

Shit sucks (gonna finish it tho bc maja said I wouldn’t like it and I’m stubborn)
Plot: barely there
Character Names: literally just key smashes or regular names with extra letters
Main Character: in need of a personality transplant

Ngl this is kinda boring and I hate that the POV shifts mid chapter and they both sound the same narritively

Being that this is book FOUR there’s only still only two likeable characters: Gabriel Nox (he’s just like me fr) and Pansexual Qween Gereldine Grus (get it gorl!)

BOOK FOUR LETS GO
(Thank you Madz)

Insanity simulator 3000

The Gideon vs Cytherea fight is a Lesbian on Lesbian crime

I JUST want to know what their ORDERS ARE istg one is a Hydra and the other is a Phoenix or something Uber-Powerful bc that’s the kind of characters they are!!! No Subtlety!! Main Character Syndrome ONLY!!

Wait why is this genuinely funny

Take a shot every time they say “pacific northwest”

“One flesh, one end- bitch” Gideon ily

It’s finally getting good (the punctuation issues are getting worse but at least the ‘love interests’ are finally getting their asses beat)

If the punctuation and spelling errors are getting more frequent with each book I can’t wait for book 3 where it’ll read like a 5th grader’s first essay 🥰

Not to hate on self published authors but can yall at least do a proof read? There’s a typo on page 21 and several missing punctuation marks 💀

Def didn’t mean to spend all day reading this 🫣

Bruh this world is the DEFINITION of “everything but the kitchen sink” like I think it’s got everything but spaceships- want vampires? Werewolves and other shifters? The fae? Magic schools? Cringe social media posts written by people over 40? British slang and culture references even tho the characters are from Chicago? Well you’ve got all that and more in this!

Who edited and formatted this?? Fire them???

“Danny why are you reading this” MIND YOUR BUSINESS

Re-reading the best book I’ve ever read <3

ngl this is what I wanted ACOTAR to be 💀
Casual LGBT representation (they’re magical beings, why only have two genders and only m/f relationships), casual displays of magic, proper world building and culture differences that have bearing on the plot and character motivations

There’s more casual LGBT rep in the first 40 pages than there was in the four (4) Sarah J Maas books I’ve read 🫣

Why does this have better world building than a good 40% of booktok favorites????
