I have a blog and a podcast, but not enough time to binge watch TV shows on streaming services. I also constantly tweet about nonsense. • She/Her

Finally starting House of Sky and Breath! Okay, the prologue focused on some new characters.

And some new powers that uh, remind me of someone.

Situation is similar too. 🤔

Despite my tour edition not shipping until next week, I had a bad day so I bought a second copy of ACOSF.

We know I have issues. As always, I will savor my SJM books, so join me on this journey!

Read quite a bit during virtual Silent Book Club last night.

Aelin's battle was awesome. But Brannon is still a bit of an ass. THOSE MANON CHAPTERS OMG!!!

She did exactly what I wanted her to, we were given more details about her past, and she stuck it to her grandmother!!! Hell yeah Manon!

Now we go back to Celaena's assassin days.

It's time for The Assassin's Blade. Already I'm glad I didn't read this one first. It's much better knowing who Celaena is now in my opinion.

Time for Heir of Fire! Already I can feel this is going to be an adjustment since she's away from everyone.

And has fallen back in grief mode.

I miss her too, Celaena.

I'm four chapters into House of Earth and Blood and of course, I'm enjoying it.

The first chapter is a massive infodump to introduce the world, but once Bryce and Danika really start talking, it gets awesome. Bryce and Danuka are an awesome set of friends. And I *know* Maas Destruction is coming.

Since USPS hates me and refused to deliver Crescent City earlier (it's out for delivery now!), @SuperSpaceChick slightly got her way and I started Crown of Midnight.

Meaning I read two pages of chapter 1. Okay, back to this.

Celaena, this is going to get so messy.

Livetweet Throne of Glass? Image Okay, Celaena is kinda awesome so far.

And nice to meet Chaol and Dorian early as I've heard those names countless times in the Facebook groups and Instagram.

Usually when I reread ACOTAR, I only go to the sections when Feyre's at Spring Court.

Decided to read the early chapters. Dear God, Nesta and Elain were the absolute worsttttttt.

(Strangely relatable) "You're just a half-wild beast with the nerve to bark orders at all hours of the day and night. Keep it up, and someday - someday, Feyre, you'll have no one left to remember you, or to care that you ever existed."

WAY HARSH NESTA

(Legit my feelings right now)

Time for ACOFAS!

Aka the book that half the fandom hates (which means I'll love it) and is constantly called fan fiction! Honestly, give me a fun, happy break set around Winter Solstice (which is also Feyre's birthday and she's like not mentioning that?)

Everyone's telling her to enjoy this time and she's still dealing with the stuff from other books.

TALK IT OUT ALREADY

ACOWAR, do your worst (Full disclosure: I found who dies a month or so ago and I'm fine)

I have started ACOMAF. I'm so nervous for my babies and nothing is even happening yet. Though they are both really traumatized and need to talk about it.

Please talk about it. (And then make out)

I'm halfway through Court of Thorns and Roses and I am way too invested in this potentially toxic relationship but gahhhhh please make out soon, Feyre and Tamlin!

Also, Lucien must be protected at all costs. They are so freaking cuteeeeee.

Disaster is on the way, I know it.

Please let them make out first though.
