#LittensLoveACOTAR #ACOTAR #ACOMAF Book 2:Ch.37-39: I love when we get to see the real Rhys, the man behind the mask. He‘s showing who he really is to Feyre more and more. I love their notes back and forth. I worry that with the blood rubies, the Summer court will tell Tamlin that Feyre was there. That could bring trouble. Or Tarquin could ally with Tamlin. Will Rhys be able to keep her safe in his court?

OriginalCyn620 Oh, I love the notes that Rhys and Feyre pass to each other! I didn‘t even think of Tarquin and Tamlin teaming up…I really hope that doesn‘t happen! 3h

vonnie862 I really love the fact that Rhys and Feyre talk to each other about their nightmares. It's nothing like what Feyre and Tamlin had (or didn't have). 1h

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.10-12: I can see how much Katie needs to do to get the festival off the ground, but she is going to burn herself out. Especially with working and keeping care of her Gran. A flirtation with Callum could be just what she needs to relax. Or is that too risky? Is he the enemy? Or is he just enemy-adjacent? She clearly is worried about being seen with him if she hides him from Nush.

TheSpineView I was thinking the same thing, Katie has way too much on her plate. 5h

OriginalCyn620 I think Callum is definitely just enemy-adjacent! I hope so. Katie definitely has a lot on her plate and I hope things pick up and others will pitch in more. And a little flirtation never killed anyone-she should go for it! 5h

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.7-9: this is a much more difficult undertaking than Katie imagined - especially with no money and no real support from…anyone. Here‘s hoping she can keep her enthusiasm and positivity. Although even I‘m thinking she‘s in way over her head. But if there‘s one place in the world to find luck - it‘s Ireland. Right?

#LittensLoveACOTAR #ACOTAR #ACOMAF Book 2: Ch.31-33: we see the dangers that exist between courts. You have to read between the lines of everything that is said diplomatically. I can‘t believe the Summer Court would threaten to return Feyre to Tamlin and risk pissing off the Night Court. I can‘t believe that the law says Feyre belongs to him. Could he really mean war over her? ⬇️

StayCurious And I can‘t believe that our book boyfriend Rhys went with Cresseida! I mean - the nerve! How could he do that to us!? Ok, the rational part of me knows he probably had his reasons - you know, keep the more suspicious members of the Summer court happy and all that - but dang! Or he heard Feyre saying she could love Tarquin and got hurt over that. Still - pouting over here. 2d

LiseWorks I'm upset because really all that flirting? Then he tells her she can go and be with someone else? Well! 2d

StayCurious @LiseWorks he‘s got some explaining to do 2d

BookaholicNatty I can‘t stop reading….ahhhhh. I even downloaded the audiobook so I can keep listening when I‘m unable to read 🤦🏽‍♀️🤣I feel if Feyre steals the book it‘s going to cause even more trouble with the Summer Court. She needs to just be herself and find a way to get the book peacefully. 2d

OriginalCyn620 I was disappointed in Rhys too, but I‘m gonna give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe he just wants Feyre to think that he did the nasty with Cresseida? But honestly, Rhys and Feyre need to quit playing these games and just bang it out! 2d

vonnie862 @BookaholicNatty I downloaded the audiobook too for the same reasons! 2d

vonnie862 I'm going to be naive and say that Rhys is a good boy and had his reasons. 😅🤷‍♀️ 2d

maich @OriginalCyn620 I think the same as you. Maybe he wants to make her jealous. He flirts with her, but we must not forget that she loved Tamlin. Maybe he wants to see her reaction, to see what she feels. But it also wants to keep the peace. At least until they find the book. Then they'll be teleporting back🤔 Rhys once told that the seasons Courts live by the law, but the other three do not. I don't like the law when she needs to go back. 2d

maich She herself disagrees with some of the laws, if we remember back to the Spring Day court. From the collection of tithes, from the celebration of kalanmai and so on... To be returned to the Spring Court by Summer Court? I don't think they would do that. Rhys would not allow. Also Tarqin has cast his eyes on her, and this could get interesting. 2d

mcctrish Two things struck me, Cala mai is brought up and when Feyre was at it the first time she met Rhysand and was kind put out Tamlin didn‘t get it on with her. The next day Tamlin went on about how he smelled her and it made him insane so now I‘m fretting she will be there this year and shit will go down. I think she has feelings for Rhys and I don‘t want anything to wreck them 1d

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.4-6: well, we have the corporate villain, that‘s for sure. Ready to plunder and destroy a town and its history. And the pub where Katie holds so many memories. Can she really stand up against them to save the pub and put on this long lost festival? It‘s an uphill battle for sure. Looks like she‘s on one line of the battle ground and Callum is on the other. Even if he doesn‘t seem entirely thrilled with his boss‘ actions.

I‘m glad she‘s realized everything that Rhys did for her while she was there - and the big nothing that Tamlin did. Then and since.

#LittensLoveRomance Happy St.Patrick‘s day! Let‘s get our Irish on! Ch.1-3: a funny if embarrassing meet cute between Callum and Katie. It was nice of him to seek her out afterwards. He could have just chalked her up to a crazy lady - and who could have blamed him?! So far he seems like a good guy. But things are bound to get more complicated. As they always do. So far I like the Irish setting and some of the side characters seem colourful.

OriginalCyn620 I loved their meet cute! It was so cool of Callum to fix the noise problem for Katie and to find her and tell her personally. I want to know why Adam was so rude to Callum. Of course, I have a theory 🤔 3d

JenlovesJT47 Can you add me to the tag list please? 🤗 This book is cute so far, also works for #foodandlit this month! 🍀🇮🇪💚 3d

julesG @maich What? You get dressed up for taking the bins out? Not happening in my part of Europe 😉 - you should see my neighbours some days 🙈. I've taken the rubbish out in pyjamas or in a bathrobe. I even went to the corner shop in my PJs and a hoodie to get ingredients for breakfast (when I lived in London). Granted, no rubber duckies on any of my PJ bottoms. 3d

julesG @OriginalCyn620 I have two ideas about why Adam was rude. But one is more solid than the other. 3d

maich @julesG Not exactly, but yes, we never go out in our pyjamas. We always go dressed up. We have space in our wardrobes for home and non-home clothes. That's what our ancestors taught us and that's what we pass on. All over the Balkans and then higher up too. In the North you probably have different customs.😆😆 3d

maich @julesG it's also a parody on tiktok about it. https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNddSVMKe/ 3d

julesG @maich I come from a rural area in East Germany. I was, of course, brought up with dress well and never leave the house in "house clothes", including the awful long apron-coat things that women wore at home to protect their good clothing from stains. But I've embraced the "sloth look" since and don't police my children. (their father does though, they have to stay in the car and can't come shopping when they wear joggers, for example). 3d

CarolynM I like the set up so far. I‘m keen to see where the story will go. 3d

#LittensLoveACOTAR #ACOTAR #ACOMAF Book 2: ch.25-27: first off, the artwork from the fan base of these books is incredible. You can find some for nearly every scene. Secondly, Rhys definitely knows how to challenge Feyre. But using her as bait? Does that go too far? It worked. And now they have the Attor and can get info from him about Hybern‘s plans. And Feyre was mad enough to use her powers. ⬇️

StayCurious It does make you think: what are the other courts doing during this time? Are they just hoping Hybern forgets about Prythian? Is Rhys the only one working? 4d

OriginalCyn620 @JenlovesJT47 Me too! 💯 4d

OriginalCyn620 The bait thing was wrong, but I guess Rhys was thinking that getting Feyre good and mad would be the way for her to tap into her powers. And I do believe him when he said that she wasn‘t really in any danger. And it was awesome when her powers came out! 4d

mcctrish Rhys is a bit ‘high handed‘ 🤣🤣🤣 with his plans but Feyre does seem to need to be provoked to find her powers 4d

LiseWorks I think inreaaly would like to know what is going on in Tamlin s court, but we see this in her view. She needs to learn how to use those powers without anger. But Dang girl! 4d

vonnie862 I agree with you all about the bait thing but Rhys does come clean. 4d

maich She needed motivation to use her powers and Rhys give that to her. It wasn't the right way but it was fun for us readers😆 I am also curious what's going on with Tamlin. What about other courts are they prepared for the war? 4d

Although these chapters were lengthy I was so hooked on learning more about this world and the characters. I love how, for the most part, Rhys is open with Feyre and tells her things. So different from Tamlin. Speaking of - he must be going crazy by now, right? That‘s a hornets nest, for sure. ⬇️

JenlovesJT47 Yeah I can‘t wait to see Tamlin‘s reaction to Feyre leaving. Dunno what he was thinking but I hope she doesn‘t go back. I agree with whoever said something about Iantha maybe ending up with Tamlin. Dunno what he expected when he confides in her and shuts Feyre out and treats her like a child. 1w

OriginalCyn620 Yes, the author has built a very interesting world! I enjoyed these chapters and finding out more about it. I wonder if we will soon get a chapter about Tamlin?

LiseWorks As I was reading these chapters I'm thinking I have to keep going with this series. I think she saw the young boy because she maybe believes that's all her mind can tolerate. And I like the way she handled herself with the questions. 1w

maich @LiseWorks I think the same why she saw a boy. And I'm curious about that bone creators (I'm reading slovenian edition and I'm not sure how is his original/english name😕). This book is insane.

LiseWorks @maich, you need to read The Black Jewel series by Anne Bishop. It is almost the same creatures. The world building in this one is so amazing that after i read the 12th book, I had withdrawal, and I missed the characters. 6d

But Rhys - he sees Feyre and understands what she needs🖤- we‘ll see how things develop in that corner as Feyre starts to recover at The Night Court. ⬇️

mcctrish On the one hand I get that Feyre has given enough and if she was happy to just sit around and paint nobody could complain. But she needs to move and be included and not dressed up like a freaking doll. I totally feel that Rhys and Feyre are bonded and the tattoo is just a mark with some magic. If she was born Fey she‘d know this, I think Rhys is giving her clues but not freaking her out since he‘s well aware of her mental state 1w

mcctrish @OriginalCyn620 something is going on with those two, Lucien wants nothing to do with her and I am curious why 1w

maich I'm thinking the same as you guys. Something is going on between Feyre and Rhys. Maybe their bond in mating bond. It seems to me that Ianthe is manipulating Tamlin. But I am not sure. I feel sorry for Lucien when he follows him every step of the way. I hope that in the end he saves him too. I suppose she won't be back now. Rhys will help her recover more than Tamlin. She deserves much better, sinceshe saved him from the curse. 1w

LiseWorks Somehow, I feel sorry for Tamlin, he too has PTSD. What he went through also affected him because now he feels he needs to protect Faire. But if I were him, I would teach her to use those powers. He seems to think the other courts will use those powers and steal her from him. She is his weapon. He just doesn't see it. For now I want her to stay in the night court with Rhys 1w

Read4life I agree with you, @mcctrish & @OriginalCyn620 . Rhys definitely seems like a much better choice for Feyre. Ianthe can‘t be trusted. 1w

#LittensLoveACOTAR #ACOTAR Book 2:Ch.7-9: War - according to Rhys - is inevitable. The king of Hybern is coming. War - according to Tamlin - won‘t happen. Although Feyre believes Rhys, she feels she has to stand with Tamlin. He is her High Lord after all. But maybe…maybe she‘s starting to hear what Rhys is saying. She is powerful. She can make a difference. She needs to train and prepare for what‘s coming. She is not a trophy or a pawn. ⬇️

StayCurious Life back at the Spring Court is difficult - Feyre feels like she is drowning. But isn‘t it her home? Her HEA? So why did she feel better and not so sick when she was at the Night Court? One thing‘s for certain, Feyre can not remain silent - that‘s not who she is. (edited) 1w

LiseWorks She needs to start speaking out. And keep at it. Tamlin is asleep at the helm here. Maybe train on her own. 1w

mcctrish I was wondering if it‘s because spring court is so far away from the other courts ( kind of at the bottom land wise) or because Rhys pops in and out of places ( can Tamlin do that?) that Rhys has his finger in the pulse of the nation? Feyre is starting to use her words so yay, but holy shit with the blow up Tamlin! She might not tell you things anymore FFS 1w

JenlovesJT47 I‘m rooting for Rhys! Lol at the painting meme 😅 my thoughts exactly! 1w

maich @StayCurious great meme! 😆 2 different court and Feyre feels so different in Night court. She can change something and I think she will. Rhys will open her eyes and he'll probably help her. Tamlin is so different from the first book. Another person. I don't like his attitude. 1w

vonnie862 @maich I agree that Tamlin is different from the first book but there were clues that his feelings weren't as sincere. 1w

vonnie862 I am not liking how Tamlin handles situations. He won't do anything when it's necessary but throws a tantrum when things don't go his way. He is not a reliable partner and it was proven when Feyre started confessing how she feels at the Spring Court. 1w

OriginalCyn620 The meme is hilarious! 😂 I‘m really disappointed in Tamlin. He goes between being a wimp and a bully. I totally believe that he and Feyre love each other, but I don‘t believe they are mates. Rhysand seems to understand Feyre much better and wants her to be herself and live up to her new potential. #TeamRhysand 1w

maich @vonnie862 Was he looking for a wife who would obey him and give him children. Or he feels obliged to be with her. 1w

Read4life Tampon is showing he isn‘t the right match for Feyre. The fact that she feels genuine and at ease in the Night Court puts me squarely in favor of #TeamRhysand 1w

BookaholicNatty I literally died with laughter when I saw the paint meme!!!! So perfect! 5d

#LittensLoveACOTAR #ACOTAR Book 2: Ch.4-6: Just as Feyre is panicking at her wedding and probably about to pull a runaway bride situation, Rhysand interrupts in dramatic fashion. He demands that she comes with him to fulfill their bargain. We find out later that he heard her crying out for help - has known about her suffering these three months, courtesy of their bond. ⬇️

StayCurious Tamlin - in typical Tamlin fashion - just lets her go. This guy - honestly. He could have put up a bit of a fight. But no, Feyre gets taken to the night court and her (delightful) sparring with the enemy begins. I‘m loving it, honestly. 2w

mcctrish How insane is it that Rhys was giving her space despite the bargain because he knew how troubled she was when Tamlin, sleeping right beside pretends to sleep FFS I‘m glad Rhys came to her rescue but she‘s gonna have some ‘splaining to do when she gets back to Spring 2w

maich @StayCurious I'm loving Rhys more and more. These two are funny together. It seems more to me that Tamlin doesn't really love her. She's not his mate. I remember how Tamlin talks about their parents mate in first book. @mcctrish maybe she won't return to Spring court. Who knows? And what about that war? The war between Rhys and Tamlin? Or Hybern and Prythian? So many questions in my head. 2w

OriginalCyn620 Yeah, what is up with Tamlin? He has his powers back, so why didn‘t he put up a fight? He‘s still being wimpy! I know that we‘re not far into this one yet, but by the end of the first book, I was on Team Rhysand. Still am! Loved his dramatic entrance at the wedding…so extra. 🤣 2w

mcctrish @OriginalCyn620 so extra and so awesome 🖤 2w

mcctrish @maich I think she will return but for how long? 2w

LiseWorks Did youbguys notice how surprised Rhys was about the powers she has? 2w

vonnie862 @LiseWorks Inoticed it too. Did the Spring Court not noticed or were they keeping it hushed? Feyre did mentioned that she's not being seen as Tamlin's equal. 2w

vonnie862 You know, I'm starting to think that Tamlin was only in love with the idea of Feyre because he needed the curse to be broken, and he feels indebted to her. He was never in love with her. 2w

BarkingMadRead Tamlin makes me crazy, he doesn‘t act like a guy in love. Lust? Maybe. I‘m #teamrhysand all the way 2w

maich @OriginalCyn620 It looks like he's afraid of Rhys maybe that's why he let her go. I'm team Rhysand too. 2w

maich @mcctrish not too long😄 2w

maich @vonnie862 I'm thinking that too. It has something to do with the mate bond. 2w

mcctrish @maich does the mate bond happen at the festival? Feyre keeps talking about it too I want Feyre to explore her powers, she‘s going to need them 2w

maich @mcctrish No there is not mate bond between Tamlin and Feyre. She sad (or think about) that they get married but they don't have mate bond. In previous book Tamlin talks about mate bond between their parents. That they did not marry because they have mate bond. When he shows her the rose garden, he explains. 2w

maich *said not sad (sorry🙈) 2w

mcctrish @maich so Feyre is hoping it happens ( sounds like Rhys and Feyre already have it ) 2w

JenlovesJT47 I finally caught up today. It may be sacrilege but I‘m rooting for Rhys! I like Tamlin but he‘s kind of a weenie imo 😬 1w

#LittensLoveACOTAR #ACOTAR Book 2: Ch.1-3: it‘s been 3 mths since the events of Under the Mountain. Feyre is suffering some major PTSD and both she and Tamlin pretend everything is fine. But how long can they keep pretending? Feyre is revered by the Fae - she has become a symbol (Feyre Cursebreaker) - I feel that although Tamlin loves her and wants to keep her safe, he is not above using her as that symbol to gain power back over his court. ⬇️

StayCurious The wedding is a political strategy- not just a love match. Tamlin is holding back who Feyre really is. She will soon resent him for it. 2w

BarkingMadRead This is an epic mistake, she needs to feel useful! Keeping her locked up is going to backfire! 2w

OriginalCyn620 I agree with all of you! Keeping Feyre on the manor grounds with nothing useful to do is a total mistake, though of course, it‘s understandable that Tamlin wants to keep her safe. They just need to have an actual conversation about it! And I‘m not-so-patiently waiting for Rhys‘ arrival. 🤣 I‘m betting it will be good! 2w

vonnie862 Is there counseling in this world? 😅 Both Tamlin and Feyre are fighting their own demons but are not confiding in each other. That's already a big red flag. 2w

maich @LiseWorks I'm curious that too. Where is Rhys and why he didn't come looking for her? I'm thinking that they aren't 100% sure about the wedding. More for political reasons than true love. 2w

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong I‘m very sorry for being so late with this check in. Every night this week I intended to catch up and life stubbornly got in the way. We will still finish the book on Sunday March 2. Ch.11-15: Eve and Roarke are fighting and she storms his office to hash things out. He agrees to help her take down Ricker even though he wants to take the bastard out himself - especially since Ricker comes after Eve again. ⬇️

StayCurious Eve bats up against IAB - there‘s no love lost there btw her and the Captain. But she is given the go ahead to continue her investigation. Kohlie was clean and she needs to find his killer - and stop whoever is targeting cops. And she needs to find out what is happening at Purgatory and what Ricker has to do with it. Ricker is losing control and that makes him even more dangerous. (edited) 3w

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR The end of the book was definitely intense. I‘ve got the hots for Rhys now - I gotta admit. He fought for Feyre and tried to help her - more so than Tamlin I think. But Feyre, after her trauma - is with Tamlin. In love and HFN. Let‘s face it - she is not ok with what happened. This girl is scarred. She‘ll need to heal. ⬇️

StayCurious Will Tamlin help with that or will it be her weeks with Rhys that help her? This is definitely love triangle material - which I normally hate in romance but in this case I‘m here for it. Bring it on! I will post a schedule for Book 2 soon for those who are interested. 3w

mcctrish The reels on FB were so focussed on Rhys that I read to the end ahead of schedule so I wouldn‘t get anymore spoilers. I was gobsmacked Feyre and Tamlin left together🤯 Rhys‘ explanation made sense to me re: what he did but I‘m not 100% team Tamlin considering how much manipulation went into pulling Feyre‘s strings to get her to break the curse. Rhys manipulated Feyre too it feels more helpful and less emotional #bringonbook2 3w

StayCurious @mcctrish I was hit with spoilers too, just from looking up fan art for my posts. But that‘s ok, I want to see what happens and how it happens. 3w

Tamlin‘s generosity has elevated her family so that they are better off than they were 8 years before. ⬇️

StayCurious @mcctrish great hashtag! 1mo

BarkingMadRead I am definitely in for a buddy read! I have the whole series but I‘ve only read the first one! 1mo

OriginalCyn620 I am totally up for a buddy read! That would be fun. It‘s a bit surprising that Nesta went after Feyre…she was always so prickly towards her. 😂 But good for her showing some sisterly love and concern! I‘m glad to hear that the family was thriving in Feyre‘s absence, but I want her and Tamlin back together. Like right now! 1mo

Read4life I‘m up for a buddy read of the series. 1mo

LiseWorks Definitely a buddy read for book 2. I was so surprised as how well her family was doing. So Tamlin kept his word to look after them. 1mo

vonnie862 I'm up for the buddy read! I bought the series set so it would be fun to tackle it together! 1mo

vonnie862 You know, I love that we got to see that side of Nesta! As the oldest myself, I kept wondering why she was so cold to Feyre. Now I understand her better. 1mo

CrowCAH The family‘s situation is so opposite of what it was, it doesn‘t seem real. I‘m glad Nesta wasn‘t glamorized. I‘m totally rooting for Feyre to go back to Faerie. 1mo

TheAromaofBooks Yes!! I am in for the buddy read. I was so surprised that Nesta knew the truth! I love that Feyre had someone she can talk to about her adventures, even if it's her most unsympathetic sister 😂 It was good to see some understanding between these two. 1mo

JenlovesJT47 I‘m down for a buddy read! Really enjoying this book. 🤓 1mo

SarahBookInterrupted I‘d be interested in reading along book 2 even though I cheated and read ahead. 😳 4w

SarahBookInterrupted @vonnie862 I feel the same way as you. I understand her more too and love that she wasn‘t fooled. 4w

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.25,26,27: A lot happened in these chapters but mainly we‘ll focus on Rhysand, the dark High Lord linked to the *she* we‘ve been afraid of. Yeah, he seems like a jerk but he knows what‘s going on. Tamlin is still keeping things from Feyre - to protect her or himself and his realm? Can he really send her home? Will she leave her newfound home now that she finally feels comfortable there? She might not have a choice. ⬇️

StayCurious It seems as though things are crumbling around Tamlin and the spring court and Feyre may be his weakness and his downfall. Unless she‘s like the key to everything. So many unanswered questions! 1mo

LiseWorks This is where Beauty leaves the beast behind. Does she have a choice? I am a little heartbroken at this point 1mo

OriginalCyn620 Yes, so many more questions now! And after the amorous activities, I wonder if Tamlin will actually be able to send Feyre away. It‘s hard to believe that he would send her back to the awful life she had before. But yet, he wants to keep her safe…I still feel like Feyre is the key to something. IDK how or what, though. And BTW, the graphic is so on point! 👍🏻 1mo

mcctrish Didn‘t the Suriel say Feyre needs to stay close to Tamlin? I don‘t think going home is safe but I wasn‘t expecting Tam and Lucien to get down on their knees either 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1mo

vonnie862 @mcctrish same! The Suriel did say to stay with Tamlin. I was shocked that both of them got on their knees. 1mo

CrowCAH I agree @mcctrish @vonnie862 that was shocking that they‘d stoop so low to protect her. I knew this was a BatB type story, but I was still torn when he came to the decision to allow her to go. He finally accepted her and she him and now they‘ll be separated. 1mo

maich @mcctrish and @CrowCAH I agree with you two. So many happend in these chapters and so many questions. Tamlin still don't want her to tell everything even they come close. Not sure what to think...🤔 1mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.22,23,24: Feyre is definitely liking and trusting Tamlin more - enough to show him her paintings, and to dress to impress. And he shows her what his world is really like. I feel better knowing that his court is not completely abandoned as it appeared to be. There are many more fairies there than Feyre could see. ⬇️

StayCurious We hear about The Night Court - there‘s no love lost between Tamlin and the Night Court‘s High Lord it seems. What a strange and terrible prank? 1mo

OriginalCyn620 I‘m glad the walls are slowly coming down with these two, but I wonder how much more there is that Feyre doesn‘t know yet. And it‘s getting increasingly harder for me to stay on schedule…I want to read ahead so badly! 😂 1mo

Judgment in Death | J. D. Robb

#IDLR #InDeathLongReadalong Ch.6-10: this book definitely has interesting twists and turns. Another cop is dead and another cop was dirty. Eve knows Ricker was involved. She goes after the goons that Ricker sent after her and when she gets one to flip he dies conveniently. Is Ricker untouchable? Roarke is mad at Eve for going after Ricker on her own, then tethering him when he wants to go after him in revenge. ⬇️

StayCurious I get why he‘s mad, but she probably stopped Roarke from murdering the bastard. Even Summerset agrees with Eve‘s actions😳. Then there‘s the complication with IAB and Webster who acknowledges that Kholi wasn‘t dirty but undercover. Webster needs to watch himself - IAB may come after him for sharing secrets. If he makes it out of Eve and Roarke‘s house alive that is. 1mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.19,20,21: We learn more about the Faerie world and about the concept of Mates. Could Tamlin and Feyre be destined or is it not in the cards? But things are starting to go well between Feyre and Tamlin, that is until Feyre goes against his orders and sneaks out to the Fire Njght. Feyre and her curiosity! She lands in such dangerous situations. ⬇️

StayCurious If that handsome stranger hadn‘t been there…and who is he and where is he from? I‘m sure we haven‘t seen the end of him. And then Feyre has that run in with Tamlin after Lucien tells her what the Rite is. I got an ick feeling that he was with someone else that night and then comes to Feyre with hopes of what? I dunno. My gut isn‘t rooting for these two as much as it was. Even if Feyre is drawn to him. 1mo

mcctrish Tam had to take someone else and was pissed off. He did warn her but Lucien obviously thinks Feyre should be given more information that she gets. 1mo

OriginalCyn620 Maybe if Tamlin gave all the info when Feyre asks a question, then she wouldn‘t need to sneak around and find out for herself. 😂 I‘m still rooting for them, though! 1mo

mcctrish @OriginalCyn620 or she‘d realize what she‘d be getting herself into if she went out and me too 1mo

StayCurious @OriginalCyn620 you‘re totally right. I‘m not a brave person - I‘d be like “ok stay in the room! No problem!” 1mo

LiseWorks I was so disappointed in Tamlin for not explaining why she should stay in her room. But those drums. She couldn't resist! After reading other books about Fairies I knew the drums would get her in trouble. And the most beautiful man she ever saw? Why heart went oh no! 1mo

LiseWorks I meant my heart, stupid autocorrect 1mo

CrowCAH Going to Fire Night was a stupid move. He gave a warning on purpose. But curiosity gets the better of us all, right? At least she knows more now. 1mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch: 13,14,15: Oy, Feyre does a good job of getting into trouble, doesn‘t she? If this were my book, I‘d be luxuriating in baths, food and the library and just avoiding all that danger- it‘d be very boring haha. But that‘s not who Feyre is. She likes to test boundaries. She‘s still working for her family even when she‘s away from them. ⬇️

StayCurious Hoping to save them from the blight. Will she listen to the Suriel‘s advice and stay close to Tamlin or did it perhaps mean a different High Lord? Is Tamlin her future? Will he keep her safe when he seems to be losing control of his lands? Or is she the key perhaps to changing things? So many questions. 1mo

mcctrish So many questions. My book would be different too, I‘d be reading and looking at the art. Maybe trying some painting techniques since Tamlin did ask about hobbies 1mo

OriginalCyn620 For sure, my book would be different too! I‘d be luxuriating in zero responsibility, opulence, and lots of me time. But Renee, I think you‘re right about Feyre being the key…I just don‘t know to what. And is this just me, or is anyone else shipping Tamlin and Feyre already? I want there to be some action in that regard 😂 1mo

maich I'm also thinking that she is the key to something or a cure. She loves adventure and troubles...I hoped Lucien was coming to the rescue but than surprise it's another one. Very unpredictable and suspensful book. I like it! 1mo

TheAromaofBooks I'm confused by why she thinks Lucien is more trustworthy than Tamlin - they feel equally suspicious to me 😂 1mo

CrowCAH @OriginalCyn620 totally shipping Tamlin and Feyre! 1mo

vonnie862 @TheAromaofBooks Same. Is Lucien trustworthy? I mean, why didn't he come when she started screaming? 1mo

TheAromaofBooks @vonnie862 - I just can't understand how she's like “oh I need someone to plead my case with Tamlin“ when Tamlin himself is like “do you want to hang out?“ and she blows him off to go hang out with Lucien in hopes that Lucien will plead her case?! How is that better than just talking to Tamlin yourself!?? 😅 1mo

Tamlin and Lucien are worried and Feyre hates being in the dark. She‘s brave for digging and asking the questions she does. I wouldn‘t have the guts. But where does she fit in?

She disses Tamlin when he offers her a tour (brave or dumb) and seeks out the foxy Lucien to get him to plead her case with Tamlin. She should have just played nice with Tamlin in hopes of doing it herself - but what do I know. But Lucien sees right through her plan and basically puts a stop to it. ⬇️

StayCurious But every conversation Feyre has with these faeries, she‘s gleaning valuable info for later. They‘re telling her everything haha. She‘s clever - but will it be enough? (edited) 1mo

CrowCAH Tampon‘s motives are hard to read at this point. Lucien may come off bad ass, but he‘s got a past too. 1mo

maich @OriginalCyn620 I think the same. She want to spent the time with the scariest fae. The end of the chapter. I read another one to see what was that. She doesn't think it's all a bit strange. She is not in captivity, she can do whatever she wants. And her family is provided for. And they can't kill her. 1mo

TheAromaofBooks I kind of forgot that we were starting this one but I am caught up now 😂 I think this story would be so much more believable if Feyre had people she actually LOVED back home. This whole “I promised my mother“ doesn't feel like strong enough motivation for how desperate she is to escape so she can be malnourished, cold, and get back to the people who treat her like garbage. 1mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.4-6: definite Beauty & the beast vibes now, as Feyre is forced to go to the Faerie land as prisoner/guest - her punishment for killing a faerie wolf. Of course, she‘s desperate to escape and return to her family - who, let‘s face it, don‘t stand a chance without her. I‘d be soaking in this vacation if I were her…⬇️

StayCurious but Feyre‘s grown up on terrible tales of the High Fae and she‘s even warned by the servant Alis not to trust her senses in Prythian. She‘s terrified and hoping for a chance to flee. Can she do what she‘s told for the time being and not get herself into trouble? 1mo

maich She is too strong not to eat. I would have eaten right away.😋 I find these creatures interesting. I don't think she'll be able to resist talking. Tongue will either get her into trouble or save her. Interesting that the High Fae took pity on her. I'm really curious to see how it will unravel. 1mo

StayCurious @LiseWorks I guess it comes down to - will she really be free if she stays? I‘d happily be a prisoner - bring on the food! 1mo

BarkingMadRead I would so be living it up without all of that responsibility! 1mo

OriginalCyn620 I‘m wondering if the tales of the High Fae were greatly exaggerated, or maybe they once were true but aren‘t any longer? At any rate, I‘m loving the vibe of this book so far! And I understand why Feyre is wanting to flee because of said stories, but I agree with @BarkingMadRead - she should try to see it as a vacation from all her responsibilities and her horrible family. 😂 1mo

vonnie862 I don't blame her for being hesitant. If I'm taken against my will, I would be on my highest alert, even if my "prison" is a nice place. My question is, why was she taken and not killed? Why was she told that she was not a prisoner? 1mo

maich @vonnie862 I wanted to know that too. Why was she treated like a high Lady and not prisoner or slave. So many questions.🤔 @StayCurious yes bring the food. She'll never be hungry again. 1mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.1-3: what an interesting beginning! A lot of information but it was delivered in a blunt, easy way so it was easy to follow. I hate her family - I feel bad that Feyre (pronounced Fair-ruh) is taking care of them and feels bound to them and bound to her terrible existence. They‘re useless. I said it. But A promise is a promise and Feyre made a serious one to her mother - ⬇️

StayCurious probably because the woman realized they would die without help. I appreciated the world building the author did - I‘m interested to see where this is going, especially considering how Ch.3 ended. I think we can all agree that Feyre is meant for more than this life. 1mo

Witness in Death | Nora Roberts, J. D. Robb

pick

#InDeathLongReadalong #IDLR Sorry for the late post - I missed my cue (haha - get it, because theatre?) Ch.16-end / review — as usual we were led down some dark passages in this one, and it hit close to home for Eve. The victim in this case was deplorable- and Eve ended up feeling for the killer. I thought the twist and reveal was pulled off nicely - Dame Christie would have been proud. ⬇️

StayCurious I liked the sentimental moments between Roarke and Eve, and Eve and Trueheart‘s mother. I think Peabody and Eve grew closer. I think Eve and Nadine grew closer. And I think Peabody and Mcnabb grew very close. Overall, a good addition to the series that helped propel it further. 2mo

LiseWorks I really liked this one. 2mo

Read4life I agree that this was very good! 2mo

TheAromaofBooks We so often hear more about how Eve feels about her evil dad, so it was interesting to think about mothers, especially Eve's. Such a good job showing Eve's personal growth throughout this series as different cases make her face different aspects of her past. And I'm totally hear for Peabody + McNabb!! 2mo

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.34-end/review: it was big gesture time and I think Dominic nailed it. A public declaration of love goes a long way - with Shay, with their audience, and with us. Good things on the horizon for them and the new show. Overall I enjoyed this book but I can‘t say I loved it - I was on edge for a big chunk, waiting for the big lie to be exposed. But I enjoyed the conversations, the setting, and thought Shay and Dominic were cute.

MatchlessMarie I related a lot to Shay as someone who has always given more than she‘s gotten in relationships I understand why she is the way that she is 😅 I‘m glad they found each other in the end and stuck it to Kent 🖕 2mo

OriginalCyn620 Yes, Dominic definitely nailed the public declaration of love! I did enjoy this book, and Shay and Dominic were both characters that I rooted for. And I thought the ending was nice, very hopeful! 2mo

Kshakal I loved dom‘s grand gesture! 💗 2mo

mcctrish Despite reading along with a lot of romance books, I don‘t consider myself a romance reader 😂🤦🏻‍♀️ not very self aware I guess. I did enjoy the public radio setting, the banter and Kent as a super villain ( not a usual character in romance novels imo ) 2mo

TheSpineView I agree on the assessment that this book is an enjoyable read but not one I fell in love with. I wanted more character development. I did like that the story felt plausible. The grand gesture was cool. Glad Kent got his in the end. 2mo

TheAromaofBooks It's probably my own fault - I know that reading books where a big plot point hinges on someone telling a lie will stress me out, but I read them anyway 😂 2mo

vonnie862 I loved the way Dominic won Shay back! And i love how they both said F'you to Kent. I had fun with this book. 2mo

BethM I really wanted him to do like an on air expose of the sexism at the station in order to win her back 😂 2mo

Cupcake12 I really enjoyed this book. I liked the basis of the podcast being the main storyline. There was some great character development and I‘m glad I joined in with this buddy read. (It was my first one 🥰) Thank you for hosting x 2mo

julieclair I enjoyed this book, despite the fact that I was biting my nails through a lot of it, waiting for the big lie to be exposed. Loved the big gesture ending! 2mo

Skygoddess1 I really enjoyed this book and love the very public apology on Dominic‘s behalf. I especially love that they drop all the f-bombs and we find out that Kent does eventually get fired. This was a great distraction from real life 2mo

Graciouswarriorprincess I enjoyed this book. Thanks. 😊 2mo

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.31-33: Welp - talk about an implosion. Everything went completely wrong in 3 chapters. We were all expecting it but I wasn‘t expecting it to come from Kent. What a scumbag! I know things will get resolved, because we know our genre - but I might still hold a grudge after the book is done! We‘ll finish up the rest tomorrow.

LiseWorks I had to read ahead lol 2mo

mcctrish I couldn‘t believe Kent was such a toxic shithead! This is a first for a romance book for me and I‘m impressed with the author for having such an interesting storyline. But I want Kent to get hit by a bus and run over by a Prius and then thrown in Puget Sound 2mo

StayCurious @mcctrish agreed!! 😝 2mo

Kshakal Kent is the worst!! 2mo

TheSpineView I think scumbag is too nice a term to describe Kent. I could never work for a person like that. I feel really sorry for Shay, but I also think she shouldn't be surprised this happened. She kind of made her bed too. I think this whole debacle is a reflection of journalism today. I don't trust any media anymore. 2mo

vonnie862 Woah! I was not expecting the reveal to happen that way! And Dominic...aye 2mo

Skygoddess1 I was definitely blindsided by Kent being the one to tell the truth, what a POS human being. 2mo

BethM The minute it happened I knew it was Kent. I thought someone would call them out live, but when there was clearly a post I just knewz 2mo

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.28-30: Yay! I‘m happy they‘re happy. Thank goodness Dominic actually pinned Shay down and they TALKED! A novelty in romance novels haha. But there‘s still a chunk of the book left and they still have to deal with the lie that has only gotten bigger the longer they‘re on the air…things are about to get sticky I think. But we‘ve been anticipating the bubble to burst since this thing started so…let‘s go!

TheSpineView Very happy that Dominic insisted they talk. They were both on the same page and an honest discussion was what they needed. Still waiting for the bomb to drop. It is going to be epic. Just hope they make it through. 2mo

OriginalCyn620 And we‘re all thinking that the implosion will happen during this big Con, right? I just wonder how it will happen. 🤔 2mo

BarkingMadRead Never a good sign 🤣 2mo

mcctrish Okay I‘ve got myself aligned with the chapters - apparently counting by 3 is beyond my capabilities currently 🤦🏻‍♀️ yay for Dominic pushing to talk and yes @OriginalCyn620 I think the PodCon will be a 💥💣🌋 2mo

LiseWorks Yes they finally talked 2mo

vonnie862 Dominic is definitely more mature than Shay. 2mo

Kshakal Buckle up buttercup, I think it is going to get wild! 2mo

#LittensLoveRomance Ch.25-27: oh Shay. I‘m sad for you. Don‘t get me wrong, we‘re all a little self sabotaging at times and I‘d probably have screwed this up too. But I‘m sad for you. Poor Dominic. He didn‘t deserve such an abrupt end. Now Ameena - she deserves to be given the cold shoulder. She was pretty harsh. Poor TJ haha - having to be in the middle. I feel like I‘ve been on edge this whole book and it‘s all about to hit the fan.

TheSpineView What Ameena said was so uncalled for. I wanted to give her a piece of my mind. Shay and Dominic should have talked things out. I get she is conflicted, but she is usually the clingy one. This is kind of out of character for her. 2mo

JenlovesJT47 Ameena really pissed me off in these chapters! 😤 Glad it‘s not just me 🙃 2mo

See All 8 Comments

OriginalCyn620 Ameena was too harsh and she made her decision back then without talking to Shay, so she really can‘t throw in Shay‘s face now. And since Shay and Dominic were on an honesty kick, why didn‘t she just talk to him? But you said it well, Renee. I‘ve been on pins and needles this whole book! 2mo

julieclair I was so disappointed in Ameena. And I‘m not sure what she‘s trying to achieve by being so ugly to her best friend. 2mo

vonnie862 Aye! I wanted to shake all of the characters! 2mo

LiseWorks I was a little disappointed with Shay. Poor Dominic! 2mo

Skygoddess1 I cannot believe Ameena, she was so nasty to Shay and I wish I could‘ve given her a piece of my mind. Shay needs to get out of her head and learn how to communicate those thoughts to Dominic, I feel like he‘d be open to more if she let him know that‘s what she wanted 2mo
