Hm currently remembering reading throne of glass way back when and god I really just don't vibe with Aelin. She just feels sort of like she's too good at everything you know? And even when something is clearly a result of her mistake--her not telling anyone the plan despite them begging her to in EoS and Lorcan reasonably assuming the army that showed up was there to kill them, thus summoning Maeve and resulting in Aelin being taken--is framed as someone else's fault despite Aelin's choices being the ultimate root of the problem. I think that wouldn't bother me so much except she's lauded as the best female fantasy character ever written, when frankly she's not written as being flawed enough for me to root for her and actually enjoy her successes.

Kidnapper: We have your kids.
Aelin: ...I don't have any kids?
Kidnapper: We have something. They call themselves the cadre.
Aelin: Oh, okay. Can you keep them for a bit? I haven't slept in, like, five months.
Kidnapper: Sure. Just pick them up by six. The blond one won't stop talking.
Fenrys, faintly in the background: I AM A FORCE OF NATURE! *crashing noises*
