Isaak Andreyev, loml, you deserved better.

The strange thing is, I finished this book 3 days ago and since then I watched a lot of reviews good or bad, and I agree all of them 😂 The book is totally getting into my nerves but at the same time while reading it I enjoyed so much and loving it. Well at the end this series will stuck with me forever with all the goods and bads. 🫰

Well I did enjoy this book but I agree with most of what you said. The perfect man/ power couple thing, and the very stupid mating bond. Bleh. 😆

Thank you, really helpful.

6:40 I was also upset Choal didn’t 💀. Again I loved Choal so dearly and I felt like after him being treated awfully and written to be a bitter lost petty person I was like, at least give him this because obviously Maas hated him. But know kept alive for plot and stuck with a forced ( almost natural) romance with by Maas’ writing is the second most powerful character behind Dorian??? (I don’t mind her being so, it just felt haphazardly put together)

3:40 about the “perfect pairs” point, it irritates me greatly. she had characters that deserved an epic romance (Choal, Lysandra, Astrein, and others) and she just forced love on them, yrene is a lovely character but she was literally written just for Choal’s development (just like Nehemia’s 💀 was written for Aelin’s development). Forced pairs like manon and Dorian, lysandra and aedion, took space. We could’ve explored interesting pairings like Choal and Dorian (explains the reason Choal followed devotedly to keep Dorian safe/rightful king: blind love of course), any witch pairings would have been great, elide and manon (even though I actually really liked elide and lorcan- until I didn’t). We could’ve had a blooming romance for lysandra finding the love she declared she wanted with any minor existing character no problem. Instead we were treated with abusive/ignorant males treating the women love interests as garbage, calling them out on it, and then the female characters declare their love for them. (More ranting below) I would’ve rather Aedion be treated like Choal was treated by Aelin. I had always liked Choal and it took many fans to see his (existing) great traits only after tower of dawn. The misunderstanding and Aelin’s wild blaming and then bickering when met again was uncalled for. (I get it Maas, you love Rowan so we have to hate Choal?) but Aedion hates lysandra for being just as obedient/loyal to Aelin as he is and then calls her useless and doesn’t care for her until she was about to 💀… rude. Lysandra should’ve left him and leaving him to his “primal” fae temper tantrums to fester (because he is written badly, to not be a changed man and make hot headed decisions)

Persian book

I clicked for the knowledge, I stayed for your passion. I'm debating whether to start a book blog or not, and you made me say yes to myself, thank you!

Good chat! I have also spent ssoooooo much time and energy on book reviews on Goodreads that I have become a bit worried that all my reviews have no backup. I recently tried WordPress, but most of my intent is to keep my reviews and keep track of the books I have, and Wordpress does not seem to give me access to older blogs. Recently I have been watching youtubers book blogging and though I don't love the idea of videoing myself it kind of looks like it is a more reliable option.

i wanted to start book blog because i wanted to stay consistent in my book reading as a kind of accountability and share my view of book. or what i understand. seeing this video made me a bit overwhelmed and then to why i care so much just start. so I'm going to search it up a bit and tips and just start.

I had to stop watching your vid because I’m only half way through the book and don’t want too many spoilers but I have literally been ranting myself about all this same stuff. The sex scenes are so horrible I start to cringe everytime Rhys and feyre are in a room alone together beciaze im afraid they’ll start having sex. I’m really disappointed because I loved the 1st book so much and then SJM decided to totally assassinate tamlins character and then spend the next two books propping up Rhys. I’m taking a break from it right now to regather my patience 😢

May I ask which platform (website) you use to host your book blog?

Omg, same. I haven't been a fan of Feyre or Rhys. I felt like Feyre changed her character completely after getting powers from other High lords. It's like she can do anything. Rather talking it out with Tamlin, she schemes a plan to destroy him. It was Hybren and Ianthe that she had to fight .argh...this was my first trilogy of Sarah's. Except for ACOTAR rest were all meh. And the word 'Mate' traumatized me. We get it. He is your mate. 😑

Thank you for making this video, I’ve had the hardest time staying motivated when it comes to making a book blog. Your tips are really helpful.

I LOVE YOUR BOOK LYNETTE!!!! Whisper is my favourite book in the WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD!!!!❤️

Love your enthusiasm!

I used to have a blog but was flippant and inconsistent. Now I'm trying to be more words and I'm starting from scratch.

Why don't you post up any new video?

Book blogging is my dream job, also do you think independent book blogs are able to be relevant in light of sites like good reads? (I love and use good reads btw)

I really want to start making a bookblog but i am pretty scared of talking infront of camera's. Do you have any tips on that?

Some good suggestions here. Thanks and good luck to you and to all!

50 Shades of Grey was such trash. I was so embarrassed to be a reader and even more embarrassed as a writer

Just curious, do you really able to earn a good amount of Money from Book Blogging?

I wanna play this haha. Great video. Such friendship much books.

You're such a positive person and a joy to watch. Consider me a fan! :)

i finished both books within a day. favourite series EVER.

my favourite book ever

I think 🤔 i wanna start one!

The poppy wars books are next on my 'to read list'. Looking forward to reading as it sounds fantastic :)

Great video... I am hoping to create a book blog on chess books. This helped thanks.

Thank you for your review. I finished the series last week and i was totally disapointed with the ending. It was a ruined potantiel. I think the author tried to make something different and unexpected but she couldn’t handle it. Malyen had trust issues and toxic talking until the end but Alina ended up with him???? I’m just sad for The Darkling’s ruined character. I don’t ship her with Nikolai because she doesn’t deserve him hahahaha

this was nice! I have a question, i want to start a book blog and connect to different platforms too like goodreads, netgalley, etc. but I find that I won’t really get audience or any growth unless I promote my blog by having a platform on Instagram cause that’s what most bloggers have too and it helps the most but the problem is I am incapable of taking photos of the books I read and I read a lot of ebooks too, I don’t know any other way? It’s not possible to own a bookstagram if I can’t post any photos like everyone else?

I've just finished Whisper and Weapon. Loved both books. The premise of words used as weapons, with the power increasing when the words are spoken with intent is so true. Great work, Lynette.

👍

Thank you for such a great discussion! :)

This was a lovely watch! I really liked how both of you asked each other questions 😊

Whisper is such a great book! I can't wait to read Weapon now that it's being shipped!!

Hola ablo español esta super guau

I love book tag videos. What's your favourite genre to read? 😊

so i’m reading this series again and although i love it i also hate it

Thank you this was really helpful! I'm only just started doing a book blog. And I am so new at it

Video starts at 3:50

I just started a bookblog today and im really excited I would mean so much to me if you could check it out thebookplacereviews.blogspot.com :)

nah fam its so good

I loves the Toll SO MUCH! It was such a great trilogy. And Jade City was pretty epic

I couldn’t finish it. It was just too dammed long! And NOTHING was happening.

Many people actually love warcross, I personally love it and I love the plot and all, it’s really capturing to the reader. I believed the details were just fine and the romance was actually cute. The sun is also a star is actually great, the romance wasn’t moving fast, the guy was actually trying to prove that people can fall in love in a short time so that was basically the whole point of the book

just started this video and i LOVE your energy and charisma

So much energy in this rant. Really like that!

Thank you for giving some direction. Lots to think about here.
