Dear House of earth and blood (crescent city),

Thank you.

The stories you hold have really brought light to my heart when I thought there was only darkness. I’m struggling at the minute with life…but you have really helped me.

You have made me laugh, cry, cringe and experience the rarest emotions that I thought my crumpled heart could not contain.

You have given me strength and resilience in a time when they were running dangerously lower.

I want to say thank you to…

Lehabah : who showed me how to be selfless, even if that means my shot at freedom is lost. She showed me being selfless is one of the greatest gifts a soul can possess.

Juniper: who taught me to be there for a friend In need, even if it’s just a phone call or message because the simplest acts of kindness can save lives.

Danika: who showed me what it means to be loyal, and that loyalty can lead to one of the strongest and brightest bonds a soul can encounter. She showed me it’s ok to be who you are. She taught me how to not care about other peoples opinions. And that your happiness out ways other peoples perceptions of you.

Ruhn: who taught me that out of labels and titles that family is the most important. He showed me that even though you might have differences or maybe not be family through blood that their gift of love is one of the most precious gifts you could ever receive.

Hunt: who showed me that there’s always a way out. Even when confined into box there’s always a window to climb through. He taught me that out of all the horrors of your past experiences that you can find happiness and love, because everybody deserves love even you reading this. He taught me that even if it takes hundreds of years that you can do it.

And finally…

Bryce: you taught me that it’s ok to be weak and frightened. That everyday isn’t going to be your strongest fight…and that’s ok. But she also gave me the strength to fight back. She shared her journey through her highs and lows, heartbreaks and heartaches and still managed to pull herself through the other end. I want to say a very special thank you to her, she has truly showed me that there is something worth fighting for, for the light at the end of the tunnel. That Today might be your weakest day but tomorrow…tomorrow bring them hell. Tomorrow pick yourself up, dust yourself of and start the climb back to the top. She taught me how to climb that mountain even if it takes awhile, to keep pushing through.

I offered this book my heart and it filled it with stories of brave, selfless, fearless people who I will forever keep locked away safe in my beating lifeline for me to take out when things get dark.

Their story’s of triumph and heartbreak have saved me and no words could ever contain how glad I am for stumbling into your story and losing myself in your adventures. You have truly saved me and have given me …hope.

Thank you house of earth and breath.

I know your stories are far from complete and cannot wait to experience the love for it all over again.

But until we meet again,

Goodbye.

"i dont trust anyone's recs if their favorite is sarah j maas and colleen hoover"

well yes sjm does write certain questionable phrases and loves the word "mate" but her books have a plot??? her characters have depth and character growth???

The portrayal of Rhys and Feyre after UTM, the way they slowly climbed out of hell TOGETHER (i am very glad i met you feyre// their first Starfall).

Aelin after she escaped Maeve (did you buy the swagger the arrogance/// you fight, until you can't ). AELIN AND ROWAN you make me want to live. When Manon asked Dorian to marry her so he won't go to Morath and Dorian saying no

ALL THE LITTLE THINGS IN HER BOOKS

colleen hoover has what? bland dialogue and simplistic plot lines. It Ends With Us, the characters lack so much depth. The plot was simplistic, there is no real attraction between Lily or Ryle or Atlas. November 9th, the MMC's redemption arc was just.. his mother died, therfore arson is justified. Look at the attraction, the chemistry, between Rhys and Feyre. Look at Nesta's redemption arc-- it's so good and it isn't even sjm's best work.

Sarah J Maas is so much more than the few phrases booktok labels as her entire style. It is the way she portrays her characters that makes us love her so much.

putting colleen hoover and sarah j maas in the same category is blasphemy and should be a reflection of your reading habits not mine smh

book recs nobody asked for PART 2 (contemp ver.)

*minor spoilers* along with quotes I couldn't help but add in no specific order (actually yes, the order that my brain thought of):

Series

Off Campus Series by Elle Kennedy

🌶️🌶️🌶️/5

Book 1- Fake Dating

Standalones

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jekins Reid

(NA CONTEMPT/ HISTORICAL FICTION/ ROMANCE)

'I’m under absolutely no obligation to make sense to you.'

'When you're given an opportunity to change your life, be ready to do whatever it takes to make it happen. The world doesn't give things, you take things. If you learn one thing from me, it should probably be that.'

'I spent half my time loving her and the other half hiding how much I loved her.'

All Your Perfects by Colleen Hoover

(NA CONTEMPT / ROMANCE)

🌶️🌶️/5

'If you only shine light on your flaws, all your perfects will dim.'

'Until then, I will continue to love you more and more with every struggle we face than I loved you when all was perfect.'

'I used to be fine when I was alone. But now that I have you, I’m lonely when I’m alone.'

The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas

(NA CONTEMPT/ ENEMIES TO LOVES/ SLOWBURN FAKE DATING)

🌶️🌶️/5

'Because it was all you were willing to give me. And I’d rather have you hating me than not have you at all.'

'Because when I finally take those lips in mine, it will be the furthest thing from pretending. I will not be showing you what it would be like if you were mine. I’ll show you what it is. And I sure as hell won’t be showing how good I could make you feel if you called me yours. You’ll already know that I am. When I finally kiss you, there won’t be any doubt in your mind that it is real.'

The Love Hyphothesis by Ali Hazelwood

(NA CONTEMPT/ ENEMIES TO LOVERS/ SLOWBURN FAKE DATING)

🌶️🌶️/5

'"I’m going to kill you,” he gritted out, little more than a growl. “If you say another word about the woman I love, if you look at her, if you even think about her - I’m going to fucking kill you.”'

'I'm starting to wonder if this is what being in love is. Being okay with ripping yourself to shreds, so the other person can stay whole.'

'You can fall in love: someone will catch you.'

i have... unpublished fics and wips that will never see the light of day but i work on every once in a while.

and i haven't written since january so i was editing my old wips and i was like damn i wrote this?? bc why am i hurting myself

Acotar is a fantasy book, so I’m going to stop pretending like I care about the logistics of why Rhysand and Feyre should become high queen and king. I simply do. They saved prythian more times than I can count and the night court is the only court that is proactive about the threats that face all of them and they still have the decency to include everyone instead of just saving themselves. Amarantha, Hybern, high lords meeting, koschei, human lands, the cauldron, the queens….Give them those crowns..

this... is one of the best fic i've ever read 😭😭😭

like just look at these quotes asdfghjklllll:

-“High Lady of the Night Court,” it said with that gray-toothed smile, “it was an honor to serve your Court of Dreams.”

-Feyre couldn’t help the wicked grin that broke onto her face, one that certainly belonged to the Court of Nightmares.

- Have I mentioned yet how ravishing you look today? Came his lover’s trill. Feyre smirked openly at him; Tamlin and Lucien looked aghast. I wondered how long it’d take for you to start the shameless flirting.

-“Because,” Feyre said weakly. She was gasping through the pain, but she managed a smug smile. “ I know something you don’t. And the answer to your damn riddle is… love .”

all the Rhy/ Night Court references asdfghjklllll

A Court of Faded Dreams Masterlist

Fic Sumary:  In her grief after Rhys sacrifices himself to restore the Cauldron, Feyre accidentally sends herself back in time. Back in her human body, in her early days in the Spring Court, Feyre must be careful how she alters the timeline as she tries to save Rhys and Prythian from Under the Mountain.

“There is much that has changed already. You are no longer a fae with a human heart, but a human with a fae heart. You do not love the High Lord of Spring, but the Lord of Night. Be careful how you tread, Cursebreaker, for all your new choices will have consequences.“

For the people who can’t watch the video right now, here is the scroll down version! For the video I edited the audio so that it ends sooner, but you’ll be able to watch the first part with the music like this too, only the ending deviates… So I highly recommend watching the video on a desktop too!!

Enjoy ^^
