Red Queen Is Awesome. Thankfully For You, You Only Have To Wait A Short While For King's Cage

In Iceland, books are exchanged on Christmas Eve, and you spend the rest of the night reading. People generally take their books to bed along with some chocolate. How cozy and wonderful does that sound? (More fun facts: Iceland publishes more books per capita than any other country, and new books are typically published only during the Christmas season—the frenzy is called Jólabókaflóð, or the Christmas Book Flood.)

The funny thing is, a few years ago, my family started a tradition where we get a secret santa and give books to the people we got, and its only me and my dad who are Irish

OMG I WOULD GET SO MANY COOL BOOKS (there I go again only thinking about myself. but seriously, you were thinking it too.)

Thats how I thought last year, and then I got a book that i'll never read

Yay! I got Mor!

acomaf characters as zodiac signs

— based on what I know and personal opinion

Aries: Cassian A firecracker literally. Rebellious and doesn’t give a shit sometimes but it’s alright because deep down they really and truly care and will do anything to save the ones they love. Typically fast paced people and rush to do things. Tend to be great sarcastic friends that you hate but you can’t stay away from them because you love them. Yup I feel like cassian is an Aries.

Taurus: Lucien THE LOYALTY. Taureans are typically very loyal signs, and would be considered followers. Taureans are stubborn, yet put family first. I feel like a Taurus would be luciens zodiac sign. May be soft out the outside but strong and good willed on the inside. Hit them in the right spot and their feelings will get hurt. Sometimes they are conflicted between choices and are scared of change and what others may think of them.

Gemini: hybern + queens + ianthe + Jurian sarcastic assholes and two faced bitches. who the frickity frackity cares they can die in a hole (I actually love gemini’s irl but these are the only gemini’s I hate-all based on stereotypes though sorry)

Cancer: Alis Caring and shy. Empathetic and sentimental. Very loyal and Alis would definitely be a cancer.

Leo: Mor A leader and a person who has passion and follows their heart. Leo’s are generally generous and loving with the people they love. They are risk takers and strong willed people. Mor is definitely a Leo for she has a heart of gold.

Virgo: Tamlin Virgos can be a bipolar sign. Although they are down to earth, they have laws in order to keep order. Virgos are very organized with what they do, and categorize people in their lives most of the time, much how like tamlin only sees feyre as a trophy wife, not a fighter, or a women capable of herself. Or how he uses Lucien for emissary business but doesn’t entirely see him as a friend. Virgos can be very opinionated, but on the bright side, deep down, virgos just want the best for the ones they love.

Libra: Rhysand First off the compatibility of Sagittarius and Libra is very high ;) secondly libra is the sign of harmony and relationship and strives for balance (somewhat like rhys) and are known for their good taste and charm (rhys!!!) Libras are diplomatic signs—they are concerned with the issues of social justice and simply want to ensure fairness. They make also struggle in making firm decisions (rhys debating whether to tell feyre she’s his mate lol) Libras are the type of people you want to be around to have fun, to have space and libras will sacrifice in order to serve their duty.

Scorpio: Azriel + Amren Both are mysterious but Azriel is quiet unlike the rest of the inner circle. Scorpios are headstrong, and may seem intimidating and unapproachable, and observes situations rather than get involved. With amren, she is more of a powerful and cunning Scorpio, with a dry sense of humour. Azriel is more serious and compelled to himself more but admires others from a distance. Scorpios are not mean or scary but their personality and friendship is a trait to be cherished.

Sagittarius: Feyre Her birthday is also on the longest night of the year which falls under Sagittarius + this sign is very adventurous, righteous, and energetic. Sagittarius’ hate when they are concealed or brought down to do things. They simply endure freedom and expression within themselves without being restricted. They know what’s best for them and are fierce leaders. Basically describes feyre!

Capricorn: Nesta Nesta — cold, ambitious, cunning. A Capricorn usually wants people to see their ‘outside’ image to portray themselves as something they want people to see or to protect themselves. Personally I feel that Nesta is that type of person to act mean but inside she is caring and loving. Capricorns tend to hide their inner feelings and don’t like to share much.

Aquarius: Tarquin + varian + cressiada (I forgot how to spell her name I’m making this 2:45 am) Rebellious and young. Carefree but has morals to follow. Branch out their opportunities and simply want more for the good of others or their own. Idealistic, independent and faithful.

Pisces: Elain A true good willed person, kind and forgiving. Pisces are dreamers and inventors and will do anything if it means goodness and prosperity. Although they seem like a good two shoes most of the time, Pisces can easily become mean and vengeful and unkind. A true deceiver. I’m not implying that Elain is mean, but in acowar I hope to see her become more open and in control of her decisions, become more strong willed and a little bit daring.

Thats exactly what I think every time I hear it! I think most of Halsey's songs are perfect for some of Sarah's books!

I’ve always associated Castle by Halsey with Aelin and ToG in general, and the part:

“There’s an old man sitting on the throne, and he’s saying that I probably shouldn’t be so mean.”

I always thought of the King of Adarlan. But no. It was Darrow. It was fucking Darrow the whole time.

OR MAYBE TRUMP IS THE NEXT MAEVE......

Hang in there, guys. We will pull through. :)

I noticed that a few weeks ago re-playing it also xD. I just march through and I see the subtitles with his name and stop dead and stare at him xD

I was playing Skyrim remastered on the Ps4 earlier and look what this guy’s name is. 😅🙄

Your an orphan? Of course! I'm an orphan, god I wish there was a war then we could prove that we're worth more than anyone bargained for.

Do you listen to Hamilton?

yes, yes i do

I WANT IT NOW!!!!!

ITS HERE

I just got ACOMAF back from my cousin and I'm re-reading it

Ugh ACOMAF is just sitting on my shelf…BEGGING to be reread…do I give in(?????)

I want it, but I'm also terrified of it xD

Am I excited that ACOWAR is out in two months? No. I'm not. I'm petrified. Absolutely shaken to the core. You know it's gonna be agony. Happy, sad—agony is relative here.

“You’re gonna suffer, but you’re gonna be happy about it.”

When I read this, i could hardly keep myself from squealing xD i'm just sitting here trying to still comprehend everything that happened in EoS and here people are, coming up with all kinds of stuff like this xD

More on Sarah J Maas Foreshadowing

So while rereading The Assassin and the Underworld after EoS something catched my attention.

Remember when Celaene went to Ardalan’s Theater? Well, I’m quoting here:

The music annihilated her.

The dancing was breathtaking, yes, and the story it told was certainly lovely - a legend of a prince seeking to rescue his bride, and the cunning bird he captured to help him do it - but the music.

Who is the Prince? Our beloved Rowan Whitethorn

Who is the bride? Our suffering Queen Aelin

And who is the cunning bird? My guess is Vaughan, one of the members of the cadre from whom we know next to nothing and whose animal form is an osprey.
