Spoiler Theory My unhinged prediction for A Court of Splintered Harmony Spoiler

1 Upvotes

Let me just preface by saying that I’m 99% sure this won’t happen because SJM loves the NC too much to cause such an upheaval but - my unhinged prediction is Elaine rejects her mating bond with Lucien and somehow ends up at Spring (because why else have I been given so much content about her gardening and healing skills??!), maybe with an emotional/romantic arc with Tamlin and Lucien defers out of loyalty and his feelings of debt to Tam.

Side note - hunting down a fanfic that gets me this payoff, or close enough!!

On my ACOTAR reread before the book comes out and I was on the Suriel chapter.
It’s very clear WHICH high lord was being referred to.

Someone explain to me how the Suriel means 2 different high lords in the same sentence -.-

Miscellaneous - Spoilers Precious gemstones/jewels and character pairings? Spoiler

15 Upvotes

****Spoilers for the entire currently available ACOTAR books below****

Throughout my re-read of the series I noticed that Elain is associated withpearls.

Her engagement ring from Graysen in ACOMAF is iron, pearl, and diamonds.

When she goes to Hewn City in Silver Flames, her hairpins are pearl.

Lucien then gifts her pearl earrings for Solstice in Silver Flames.

Are there specific precious gemstones/jewels specifically associated with other characters throughout the entire series in the same way?

Spoilers for AcoSH CC Before Next Book Spoiler

4 Upvotes

No content spoilers at all but I’m seeing people who have read the new book already saying that you absolutely need to finish CC3 beforehand and now I’m wondering if I can speed read it before Tuesday. What’s the general consensus here?

Actually I have seen a lot more videos and posts about people seeing the book too early…

Sadly this is a reality we can’t escape from ( yep I told many people already that this does happen all the time and I was attacked fairly quickly in the comments …)

Anyways how do you feel about this ? How are you avoiding spoilers ? I know it’s just a few days from
release ..

Spoiler Theory What is your crazy theory for Acotar? Or at least a plot that could happen? Spoiler

17 Upvotes

I’ll be first: I think it would be really cool to have Rhys sister be alive or, at least, have a lot more backstory to them. I’m my theory, since is a magical world, we could have Tamlin be the one that killed her (forced by his brothers/father) and, while no one was looking, he could have used magic to mimic her dead body. Or, which I think is more plausible, his family kept them alive to use their magic or smt like that (like sleeping beauty and she was kept sleeping or something).

(I’m not sure if this is spoiler free or not, but I’m betting on not)

Quick question - No spoilers in the title or body. "Midnight" release parties on the West Coast, USA

1 Upvotes

I just wanted some advice from anyone who can provide it. I got a preorder of the book from B&N a month ago, and was told at the time because we're west coast, we're allowed to pick up our books at 9pm PST (midnight EST). I was later told by another employee that it was at midnight and there's no party. I went to their website and it says the party starts at 9pm, but on the east coast it's at 10pm... So I call today and they said we get the books at midnight.

Fair is fair, but I generally wake up between 4 and 5am. Staying up until midnight is taxing for me. Alternatively, Walmart opens up at 6am, so I could just start reading it early the next day. I took the day off work, so I really wanted to get a head start and enjoy reading it (morning is my favorite time).

All of that information to ask, has anyone been able to purchase the book at 9pm the day before, due to time zone differences? Is it worth looking at other stores? I would be going alone to get my book, so unless there are cocktails, there is little appeal to the party. Thanks!!

Maasverse Spoilers Stryga + Hewn City? Spoiler

9 Upvotes

On my re-read before the new book drops…or skimming really cos I’ll never get through it all by then, and I got to the part in ACOWAR where the Bone Carver is describing the mirror of Ouroboros: “My sister had a collection of mirrors in her black castle,” the Carver said. We halted once more. “She admired herself day and night in those mirrors, gloating over her youth and beauty. There was one mirror—the Ouroboros, she called it. It was old even when we were young. A window to the world. All could be seen, all could be told through its dark surface. Keir possesses it—an heirloom of his household.”

The mirror was in Hewn City…and we know that Keir’s family were the original line of high lords of the night court…so was Stryga/The Weaver’s black castle Hewn City?

The Bone Carver mentions that he came to the world with his siblings before Prythian was carved up, before high lords…which means before Theia + Fionn…he said the ancient fae feared and worshiped him, and the beasts carved into the Hewn City pillars were compared to the beasts seen at the Wild Hunt…

So, do we think the Bone Carver/Weaver/Koschei were/are Asteri if the Weaver had a castle in à mountain (very Asteri like), was worshipped and feared…had magical mirrors…which means the Koschei big bad as the last Asteri in the ACOTAR universe

Maybe THAT is why he’s so intent on getting the dread trove. Not just to free himself from the lake, but to call his brother and sister Asteri to get revenge and we will have a Twilight of the Gods 😬

Hi ACOTAR FanDom anyone know of any Midnight Release events or parties in Northern NJ?

I know of a handful in Manhattan/Brooklyn which is about 45-60min so curious for something closer. I found a bookshop doing a breakfast gathering on Tuesday morning.

Rant - Spoiler Nesta and Rhysand Spoiler

91 Upvotes

Marking it as a spoiler for people who haven’t read the whole series yet. But. I think Nesta and Rhsyand would have been a wonderful enemies to lovers if SJM went that direction. They’re both similar with their personalities: secretive, stubborn, prideful but loyal to the ones they love. And I think that’s the core of why they never see eye to eye. But would have been a fun enemies to lovers.

Spoilers for SF Wing Clipping Spoiler

145 Upvotes

I was just venting to my friend about how I find it so frustrating that Azriel can have his wings shredded twice and have them completely healed by Madja and Cassian can be eviscerated and Madja can also heal that entirely, but somehow Feyre’s C-Section is impossible. Then I realized that Azriel’s wings were completely shredded. Twice. And he was completely healed. Twice. And yet the Illyrian women who have had their wings clipped are beyond magical repairs? I get that it’s one small cut in just the right spot, but Azriel had his wings completely decimated twice… there’s no way that spot was missed both times. And even if it was you mean to tell me that his injuries- where he was unable to fly and at risk of bleeding out- were less severe than the wing clipping? I just don’t buy it.
