I think Rhys has the concepts of a plan to address the mistreatment of fema... women in Illyrian society, shouldn't take more than say 2,3 thousand more years. I will continue to give him full credit for this continued work in the meantime
I'm so excited for this video!! it really feels like SJM was trying to appease both trad-wives and non trad-wives (domestic labour is so valuable! but also they suffer. but also they take pride!) and just ended up with the worst wishy washy representation
Heck yes. New ACO-roast. I gave up on finishing this irredeemable series myself so I’ve been looking forward to your next one of these lol 🙏 thank you for your efforts
The fact that we're supposed to think they are sooo good for giving a fraction of thier endless money to charity is so absurd to me. They are the rulers! They get thier money from taxes! And they could have used said tax money to prevent the problems those charities exist to solve. Somebody is picking up a ball they dropped and they are throwing scraps at them and feeling good about themselves
Honestly, Chad Hogfather > Virgin AcoFaS. I swear this novella is entirely the most materialistic shallow Christmas special to, its notions to anything slightly deep is cringe and flimsy. Meanwhile you got books like Hogfather that tackles the mythology stuff head on while doing a full journey Death and Susans relationship as Death trys to save Christmas and reconnect with his granddaughter during a holiday about family. And it still has time to drop the "humans need fantasy" speech.
I feel like the reason why this book sounds so tone deaf is because the writer is tone deaf. She writes about real topics that she has never experienced nor probably will. She probably wrote those scenes about the fairy slums while she was in her Hawaii home while writing about how faires would be displaced if they were to help them meanwhile she displaced many native Hawaiians from there home because rich people like her want to live in a tropical paradise but don’t care about how they are raising the cost of living for the actual natives. I’m not saying people can’t write about things they haven’t experienced but they should definitely do there research and ask people who have experienced it to proof read it or ask for there opinion and it probably would be a lot better.
I was a Tamlin fan. I see a lot of people say that he was always abusive however...he took a human girl as his prisoner in the hopes of saving his court (and from what what I understand the whole fae world) by making her love him. That's a lot of pressure and it sounds like his personality was always awkward. If anything he came off more autistic. Also I looove how Fae that have live for hundreds of years act like Tamlin locking up Feyra against her will and was emotionally abusive is the MOST unforgiveable thing they have EVER. His father fought a war against other Fae and he was trained as a warrior under him. Are you telling me him doing that horribe behavior is more horrible than let's say, mutilation of women systemic sexist views that Rysland is complacent in? However even so it was so widely out of character what they did to both Lucien and Tamlin after the first book I could rant on it for hours. If they wanted to put her with Rysland the plot would have been so much more interesting if they kept Tamiln the same and made Rysland have the mating bond. No one stands in the way of mates anyway so why the character assassination? Like is the only way a woman is justified in leaving a man is if he is an abusive asshole? Such a disappointment for what could have been a good plot.
A lot of people say the author probably deliberately turned Tamlin’s negative traits up to eleven from the second book onwards, so the Rhysard seems like a better guy in comparison.
The upload ambushed me, but it’s a welcome surprise hearing you shred something to confetti. If you’re looking for a palate cleanser (and searching for an author who suplexes the lurch contemporary romance has taken), Tampa might be something right up your alley. All I’ll say is if the Brittany Zamora case grotesquely mesmerized you, the millennial Lolita is right up your alley. The material is downright putrid, but Alissa Nutting’s control makes it a compelling snapshot into a predator’s mind. Similarly, the George Miles Cycle is cut from a similar cloth of attraction, obsession, and mutilation. Written like a heroin high, Dennis Cooper’s hallucinogenic pentalogy pierces deep into generational ennui and the terror of a hungry mind. I consider Closer, its beginning, to be a welcome, if lurid hybrid of Heartstopper and Class of ‘09. The fact that no one on the platform attacked the series in full has to constitute a creative injustice. Either way, I hope those two works are antiseptic enough to clean out the plaque ACOMAaS bestowed upon you.
it’s also weird to me that no other cities but hewn city and velaris are mentioned bc if u look at the official map, the night court is BIG, like, about the same size as dawn and day combined. with that in mind, ur telling me that the inner circle, which is comprised of no more than 11 people, are running a territory of that scale with no sub-governments, parliaments, or hell, even a judicial system outside of the High Lady and High Lord???? WHY R U AS HIGH LADY WITH ALL THE POWERS OF EVERY GOSH DIDDLY DARN HIGH LORD LOOKING AT ISSUES ABT A DEBT SETTLEMENT OR A FREAKING CAT STUCK IN A TREE???

CONCEPTS OF A PLAN. IM SCREAMING
everyone be quiet, my show’s on
This reads like an AI was told to write a bad hallmark christmas movie in ACOTAR
I'm so excited for this video!! it really feels like SJM was trying to appease both trad-wives and non trad-wives (domestic labour is so valuable! but also they suffer. but also they take pride!) and just ended up with the worst wishy washy representation
"This is supposed to be a shorter video" at around an hour per 100 pages, not sure how much you succeeded there, but I love it nonetheless 😂
What can I say? I'm a certified yapper
Heck yes. New ACO-roast. I gave up on finishing this irredeemable series myself so I’ve been looking forward to your next one of these lol 🙏 thank you for your efforts
This book is a fever dream, not even in a good way, half the time it just derails and goes on something completely off of what just happened
3 hours? Looks like i have listening material for the last 3 hours of work. Thanks!

It's EXHAUSTING.

Haven’t watched this yet but I have a 2 hour drive to do this evening and seeing this upload is a GIFT I cannot wait to listen, thank you 🤩
YESSSS NEW SENTI ROASTS OF SJM

This Tamlin plotline is horrible. They literally just torment him. Yes, he is supposed to be a bad guy, but aren't they good guys?
100%

This book is tone deaf, and really made Feyre and Rhysand insufferable for me. It was a Herculean task to finish it.
Which is crazy considering how short it is

IT'S TIME
