So like... interesting take. (Or maybe not, whatever). I’m an older sister right? So most of my distaste for Elain comes with experience- not because I have a sister like Elain, but because I understand what it’s like to be the older one.

Imagine holding your siblings hand through the worst of times, having their back always, protecting them in every way possible and sheltering them as best you could even if it might’ve been *too* much. Imagine fighting like hell to make sure they don’t get caught in the crossfires and even when you’re breaking you prioritize them.

And then one day, they’re suddenly fine. They’ve found some semblance of peace, even if they’re not completely healed you know you did good supporting them.

But then you’re breaking, and you don’t know how to cope because emotionally you’re the one ready to take on everyone else’s burden, but the second it’s yours you panic. You don’t know how to cope, you don’t know how to react, you’ve never been taught to love yourself and fight because you’ve been raised to sell yourself off like cattle.

You’ve lost the body that survived so much, and you don’t have a scrap of your old life to hold on to. This manifests into bitter heart wrenching grief. And all you want is your sister to hold your hand like you did hers. But instead, she rips apart your place of solitude like everyone else.

This is completely text based- I often critique Maas on how she writes the sisters but THIS- THIS she hit the nail on the head. Any sibling WOULD feel that cutting betrayal (if that’s what you’d call it).

I’m like Nesta in which I would give ANYTHING to protect my little sister, we fight, we laugh, we have a HUGE age gap. She is my number one girl and I take so much pride in her, if she ever did anything like Elain did to Nesta? Yeah, I would feel betrayed.

So many people have come to the conclusion that if you don’t like Elain you don’t like soft characters. Nah, I don’t like Elain (at the moment) because no matter how far I, or my sister, fell I would NEVER do what she did.

To all the people who question and wonder as to why whenever Nesta stans bring up Rhys everytime we go to “defend” her (it’s called critical thinking but whatever) it’s because of one simple fact: Far too often people who hate Nesta praise Rhys- and they excuse his actions because he’s hOt or sO swEeT to fEyrE or a fEminIst!

No, he is not.

He sexually assaulted her Under the Mountain, he never apologized for this.

He has murdered people in cold blood for no reason other than to prove a point (where the validity in this?)

He has ostracized and belittled HIS people in HIS court with the exception of 1/3 because they’re “special”

He gives the bare minimum to his wife and lets her make decisions (she should have this in the first place) and people kiss the ground he walks on because of it.

I’ll be honest when I say I LOVED Rhys, I thought he was absolutely perfect! I have grown from that and realized I should not romanticize a man who claims he works for the greater good and then is classist, assaults his future wife, and manipulates others then wonders why he doesn’t have their trust?

Nesta is bad too, and unlike some people who go to defend Rhys (or Nesta) I can admit that with no hesitation. She is rude, has failed to be a good older sister at times, and has done some unspeakable things.

She has also done good,

After ACOTAR she sat and painted with Feyre trying to make amends,

she broke off an engagement with Thomas because he wouldn’t help Nesta go find Feyre,

She opened up her home to people she did not know because her SISTER asked her.

This is not to say Rhys hasn’t done good either.... but it’s kinda hard to see what good he’s done at this point for me.

If you claim that ACOSF is a redemption arc for Nesta, please reread and consider the redemption she’s already had.

In this book we’re going to see her RECOVER, not redeem herself.

Sorry for this little rant but it was on my mind, I’m open to discussion and coversation because I’m always looking to see a new pov:)

Sarah’s Live!!

- Eris is her favorite Autumn Court member (the Bad Boy Backstory) and she also loves the characters who don’t praise the ground Feyre and Rhys walk on.

- There’s apparently a lot of Azriel (is in there more than Eris) Cas and Az are very close, Az has his own stuff going on.

- Az is Mr. Brightside

- Az and Nesta have a “similar” journey and Nesta sees through his mask, he treats her NORMALLY (mutual respect and understanding) 

- Az and Nesta LOVE to tease Cas

- CC2 has a threesome?

- Sarah says ACOSF is steamier than CC2 ( in terms of “bodily fluids”)

-Yes we will find out what was in the box

- Cassian spent a lot of time thinking about and tracking down said gift (it’s very precious)

- Feyre “may be” pregnant in ACOSF

- Other High Lords will make an appearance

-We get to see what Lucien is up to, a couple appearances Sarah says.

-King of Hybern is based off of Trump.

-SHOCKER RHYS IS NOT BASED OFF OF JOSH.

- We will be proud of Nesta’s growth, her growth has been the most PERSONAL to Sarah.
