Literally so sad to me. I had the feeling from this summary (not read the series) that if they just asked him for the book and explained that it was part of a plot to save the world from the war, he'd be like "fuck yeah Queen, here you go. And have a token of my friendship for added bonus" Why can't friends just be honest with each other?

I also agree that they were stupid in trusting and being honest with the queens but they literally lied to Tarquin who they said they wanted to as an ally. It’s one of those things that doesn’t make sense no matter how Rhys explains it and since it’s written from Feyre’s pov of course she is going to biased and be like yea Rhys had a point and he was right. This is when it would have helped to have chapters from other character POVs, like Rhys or Tarquin or Amren.

Kind of, but I think that's part of the point. Even in the first book, he never really had much control over himself and his emotions (re. Calanmai festival incident), lied about way more than he needed to, and pretty much just gave up when Amarantha came back into the situation. Sure, he was sweet at times, but realistically, he had the balls to yell at her/get on her case for things that there was no way she could have known about (the mimic thingy that pretended to be her dad), and he's always kind of had a penchant for destroying stuff and taking Lucien for granted. They were in love, but rather than him choosing to listen and take control of dealing with his PTSD in a reasonable, mature manner, he chose to explode his surroundings at least twice and hurt his S.O. He was never a super mature character, he just had all the hard choices pretty much made for him so that he couldn't afford to step out of line to the point where it would have jeopardized everything. I just think it's not as immediately noticeable in the first book because he acts like a typical romance novel caveman love interest, which comes off as hot, but realistically has a shitload of red flags if you actually examine the behavior. I think part of the point is looking at how he deals with emotions (again, historically, he's never been good at it) and comparing it to how Rhysand does (surrounding himself with friends, but making absolutely sure that his emotions don't cause him to have a blast radius).

ACOTAR is one of those series that you can't think too deeply about or it all falls apart. Little details that don't match up, plot holes abound, and a whole bunch of tropes that aren't used in any new or inventive ways. But if you just sit back and take it all at face value, it's genuinely one of the most fun reads I've had. The characters are all likeable in one way or another, even if it's just because they're fun to make fun of, and for all the weird metaphors and unnecessary steam, their interactions are generally enjoyable. They're all a bunch of dorks, really - personally I like imagining the Inner Circle as a sitcom. tl;dr, ACOTAR is genuinely really fun if you just don't take it seriously

Tamlin gets a lot of undeserved hate. Imagine you have a fiancé who loves you so much that she literally dies to save you. Then while she’s struggling with PTSD, she gets kidnapped by a man who’s has a reputation for being a sadistic murderer and who openly drugged and molested her infront of everyone. Then you receive a note from her, but you know she can’t write. On top of that, her kidnapper is famous for having the strongest mind control abilities in the realm🤷🏼‍♀️ Can’t really blame Tamlin for being desperate to get her back

No. And this is explained in the books. Amaranths kept a piece of Jurian’s soul tied to his body parts. If you remember, her ring with his eye would move around and look at things. He was still “alive” in his eye. Whereas Rhys’ mom and sister did not have a piece of their soul kept alive in their wings. And, regardless, Tamlin says in ACOWAR that he burned their wings. And Rhys would have needed the Cauldron to bring them back IF somehow their soul was still alive in the wings. And when they were killed the cauldron was still unlocated.

@@ginnyluv4601 Tamlin only became controlling after UTM. In ACOTAR, yes, he pressures Feyre to come to Prythian, but only because he was literally physically (magically) unable to tell her the truth. And yes, he pressures her to eat but only because she was willing to starve herself to death because she was under a false understanding of fae culture (eating fae food will let them control you). After Feyre realized she wasn't in danger, she had complete autonomy. Tamlin didn't even lock her up for her own good on Calanmai, despite telling her she'd be in danger if she left her room. He's controlling in ACOMAF as a reaction to his experience UTM, not because that's who he really is. We forget (because we're always shown the secret, unmasked side of Rhys) that Rhysand is Prythian's Voldemort. Everyone in the Night Court is either a Death Eater or under the Imperious Curse to act like a Death Eater. Rhysand is known for inflicting a Cruciatus Curse on anyone who looks at him the wrong way. It's entirely understandable for Tamlin to do whatever it takes to save her from that.

Then Hybern takes over Prythian and the Continent, enslaving and torturing humans. When you're dealing with twisted evil like Amarantha and Hybern, there is no good outcome, just bad and worse.

Disclaimer: I’m not a diehard SJM fan but I do admit to loving this series so far up until this point. However, I don’t really understand your logic. I feel like, by your logic, what’s the point of reading any book? I really like how SJM built it up to be this perfect love story just for it all to unravel in the second book. I think it adds more motive and backstory to the characters and everything ties together nicely. In addition, I feel like it replicates real life in that we could spend so much of our lives pining over something/somebody just to later find out it’s not what we want or it’s not what we thought it was. Idk I personally really like how ACOTAR created a solid back story for ACOMAF while still being entertaining and interesting. I think it shows a lot of character development in Feyre to go from being blindly in love with the first “person” who cares for her just to realize that’s not what she actually needs.

I don’t know SJM or her intentions but it’s possible she never meant for it to go this route when she was originally writing. From these recaps it comes across like she writes to one up the previous section with new declarations, reveals, etc and gets a bit carried away as she does so. But like I said I haven’t read them so this is just my take!

I'm not an SJM fan and haven't read these books, so obviously take this with a grain of salt, but I think it's actually a pretty deep message about how trauma can ruin something that otherwise was good, especially when the trauma was mutual. Sometimes people can't heal together. It's the same reason that experiencing a tragedy together can break up a marriage. Maybe it's just the empathetic way, Cari talks about the books, but I had heard about this plot before and thought that it seemed true to life.

I know a lot of people are like "why is Tamlin suddenly a bad guy" and I get the inital shock, but something some people don't realize is that most abusive dudes come across as knights in shining armor at first, because they understand that they can't get away with exerting power over their partners right away. A lot of abusive men are charming in their own right, and then they slowly take away their partner's autonomy over time. A lot of women have a "he used to be different, I don't know what happened" reaction to their abusive partners - and they feel genuine love for them, but suddenly things change (abuse starts), and they're so far into the relationship that leaving becomes complicated and scary. Abusive men want to control everything about their partner, because control = power, which was Tamlin's WHOLE deal with Feyre. Not to mention, Tamlin let the whole under the mountain thing break him, which *is* really sad, and people harboring that kind of trauma let it hurt the ones around them, too. And while sad, it doesn't excuse his actions towards Feyre. Tamlin becoming what he was was very believable and VERY real, and SJM is kind of based for writing about it (despite the story's obvious imperfections).

yes thank you!! this is what i’ve thought but so many people are just dismissive of the fact that many abusive relationships do not become that way until later on

Agree with everything except I take issue with “Tamlin *let* the whole under the mountain thing break him” Because PTSD just happens, it doesn’t matter how “strong” a person is, so he literally can’t control that I just wish SJM wrote the PTSD better bc she demonized Tamlin and put Feyre on a pedestal when they were both coping horribly

tamlin's behavior in acotar is a little masked by the mystery of his curse and the situation with amarantha, but he ALWAYS acted with the aim of "protecting" (read: controlling) feyre. his actions and motivations don't even change that much in acomaf; they're just framed differently, now that feyre knows her power and her worth. for all of the flaws that this series has it is a pretty compelling and realistic depiction of an abusive relationship

@@IDislikeMacaroni I think it’s feyres pov so maybe that’s why it seems like it’s a “let” because that’s how she feel

I've read these books many times but I spent my whole day listening to you go through them. So soothing and also so fun to hear someone else's thoughts on these books.

this series is a lifesaver, I've heard SUCH polarized reviews of this series and couldn't decide if I wanted to spend the time reading them! watching these videos has convinced me NEVER to read anything by sjm (i can't stand smut in any book, and the way you describe sjm's writing of it has me cringing so hard), but at the same time I'm hella invested in the story. can't wait for book 3!!

I love how the first book Tamlin was like omg Feyre how could i ever let your family be Poors 🥺🥺🥺 then book 2 Tamlim is all omG Feyre you helped a POOR? No HANDouts in THIS kingdom. Id appreciate Maas not having a character end up with the first person she fell in love with if she didnt have to assasinate the character of the OG love interest to do it. Especially when Book One Rhysand made some uh. CHOICE decisions regarding Feyres alcohol consumption and the nonsense she did under the influence for his *entertainment* but Tamlin is The Worst, amirite?? Gorl just write the relationship souring IN CHARACTER dang. These videos are amazing though 👌🏻👌🏻
