this is fun, but let's dial it down on the storm metaphors, ok?

the 'big twist' is also kind of obvious tbh, but we'll see.

20-year-old me would absolutely have been a Will Herondale supremacist.

If only the audiobook narrator didn't put me to sleep with her voice, ugh.

i hate it here

zero clue what is happening, but it's still fun!

... Miles looks like Benny Blanco in my MIND, HELP

close to being done and I honestly do not understand the concept of this radio show?? she's not finding dates there, not getting romance advice, supposedly all of Baltimore is in love with her, yet only jerks and idiots keep calling in? just *what* are they talking about 3 nights a week? the whole thing honestly sounds like a total failure?

... meh. this started out so well and then it like there was an essential chunk of the emotional journey missing and we suddenly arrived at "oh yeah, they're sitting in that booth vibing and shit"??? how?

Referring to online-dating as the 'gamification of the heart'; oh, I'm loving this

Ridoc is the only character speaking sense here.

having your panties "liquified" is a metaphor for being horny I sure as hell didn't need in my life. pretty sure she also said sth about them turning "molten" because she made eye contact with Xaden, oh my. at this point, it's just the dragons that keep me going, honestly.

idk, i'm not feeling this

... they are in SPACE omfg i'm wheezing, this is hilarious
sjm was on some shit when she wrote this

... ok i actually cried

... 40 chapters to go. why am i doing this to myself

how are there 60 more chapters? this book is longer than the month of january

... using a good portion of this book to expand on the worldbuilding and 'lore' (🤭) of ACOTAR certainly is A Choice.
also: i previously rather liked bryce in comparison to sjm's other fmcs, but am sorry to say she has fallen victim to the "ridiculously overpowered female lead who makes unbelievably stupid choices" syndrome.

... oh, this hurts!

"... PSYCH! you thought there were actual stakes in this story???"

how is only half of this book over 😭

every time Feyre says or does some ~groundbreaking magic shit because she is the most powerful being everrrr, internally i'm still like: "yeah, go girl, give us nothing!"

.... manic pixie dream girl mit alkoholkranker mutter geht mit 10 kilo trauma im gepäck auf sinnsuche und wird von nem mysteriösen pseudo bad boy vor sich selbst gerettet
hatten wir das nicht schon im ersten buch?
naja, mag's trotzdem irgendwie

still my favorite

will SJM ever write a cast of main characters who *aren't* the single most special, powerful, unique bunch of people everrrrrr?

..... oh my God, they are mates???? plot twist of the century 🙄

Feyre and Rhys practically dry-humping in front of the entire Court of Nightmares just so Azriel can go steal some magic orb thingy makes complete sense to me /s

i refuse to start caring about any of these fictional people

.... i am bored out of my mind.
