[@deborahr113]

She's young and dumb. Also Lucien was off limits and pushed her to tamtam eventually, which she went along with cause.... She's young and dumb. Btw I love Feyre, Lucien and even like Tamlin a bit. But it is what it is.

I now fully understand why many people dislike these books. Taking care of the MC seems like taking care of a toddler in the way that they immediately try to kill themselves the second you stop watching.

[@anawillis]

Yea, that was a major grievance I had with this book but it gets better in other books and she actually grows a brain and has meaningful development as a character.

[@ChesireWaltz]

Yep that is what made me unable to fully get into it. I hate it when you have a character that's supposed to be super badass and independent but the only reason she's just not turbo dead is that the story and the characters within it do not treat her like the adult she is pretending to be because she's not! I also think I could tolerate all of the brainless rule breaking if she had a reason for a lot of it but pretty frequently her reason is you can't tell me what to do and then she goes and does it. That's it. That's the motivation.

[@Panda.Writer]

An MC who has a lot to learn is letting you learn alongside them. 👍 mistakes and dumb choices make it interesting if played right.

[@kassiekorte671]

She’s an actual teenager who is uneducated and in a completely different world. This book was just her origin story and she gets better in the next book I promise

[@Kattywagon29]

The only reason to read this series is for Rhysand and one other character that I will not mention because spoilers. Everyone else can jump in a lake. That said, the first book was hard to get through (really because of Feyre's dumb decisions) but as the series goes on, it is actually interesting and of course Rhysand exists, so yeah. The final book in the series came out recently, but I haven't read it yet. Fingers crossed that it will actually be good.

As someone who finished the entire first series, I cannot wait for the rest of the summaries. (Oh, buddy. You're in for a rollercoaster.)

[@LKBean]

I attempted to read the book and couldn't handle main character's stupidity (and also the author's lack of cleverness in writing an entire series about the most clever magical creatures in the universe), so thank you for this spicy summary. It is a thousand times more interesting and funny and I'm here for it. If you do the rest of the books, I will love you forever.

YOU LITERALLY NEED TO DO THE WHOLE SERIES BECAUSE I LOVE ALL THE BOOKS AND WATCHING THIS AFTER READING IS JUST AMAZING

[@ainsleya9291]

Yall rewatching this 2 months later and it’s still the best thing ever

[@justjazzy24]

The fact that I’ve actually read the entire series but this helped me remember things that I totally forgot about? You’re genius.

[@Toffiloffio]

I despised that book but If I had to read the series just to hear your delightful summaries I would "Why does she even like that guy" cracked me up

[@cookiescuentosandquejas5639]

the most relatable part of this video is the frustration when the MC is attracted to the 2 abus1ve male characters when best boy Lulu is RIGHT. FREAKING. THERE! edit: and the MC's complete lack of critical thinking skills :')

"her boyfriend toyota corolla" bro i am wheezing

[@haloreadss]

I NEED THIS FORMAT FOR ALL BOOKS NOT ONLY ACOTAR EVERYTHING

[@celeste_tm]

4:50 arguably not the smartest thing ever. Giving a fake name was smart, but you NEVER give a real fake name. You give a fake fake name. Make up some random name, but definitely don’t give the name of someone you actually know!

As someone who has to avoid popular books due to the ✨spice✨ WE NEED MORE. PLEASE.

[@kithric4878]

Oh my goodness yes. And I listen to audio books so it's even more challenging to skip the uncomfy parts. Do you have any good spiceless recommendations?

[@eenix0]

If you like sci fi and hate spice, The Expanse book series is one of my all time favorite series ever. I hate how impossible it is to find fantasy and sci fi books that dont rely on unecessary romantic drama and/or sexual violence to create tension. I have such low tolerance for toxic romantic tropes, and practically no tolerance for SA in my leisurely fiction. (Not a problem for Maas, just a problem in the fantasy and sci fi genres in general). But damn i wish we could have more books about wholesome relationships and believable sources of earned tension. Resorting to sex to advance your plot at every turn is so overused and old and boring.

​@@kithric4878Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson is really good!

[@samanthasimeone9545]

This was perfection. I strongly request a recap like this for all the books as I literally sent this to everyone I know that has read this series. Please consider, the cauldron is begging you to continue this series!

[@vena3041]

i've been putting off reading this book for YEARS and will happily continue to do so if i get to learn the whole plot through these videos. im obsessed

[@jillinine8334]

I literally love this synopsis so much, thank you for saying literally anything but Tamlin to address him lmao

[@Sof_rha]

I love this. The way you called Tamlin anything except for his name was PERFECTION😂

[@kendraaan]

I was SO not expecting that, i was genuinely looking for a quick recap on the book because i forgot everything. Thank you for making me laugh so hard 😂

[@emaemett]

i love the way you call him anything BUT 'tamlin'. iconic

[@krussyarts]

I only know this series through KZbin videos and I agree, I love Nesta I don't care if she's horrible. She's such a force of nature and honesty I really appreciate that compared to faera

[@hopekeeley2122]

My thoughts exactly. She’s mean but at least she had a personality!

[@lisha3595]

Nesta's book is my favorite in the entire damn series. I wont spoil it, but damn that woman could scrape my heart out with a spoon and I'd be happy for it

[@shesathornback]

Nesta Gang rise up

[@Thotsferatu777]

YESSS NESTA IS WIFEYY

[@anawillis]

Nests gets GOOD character development late and I love it so much. ❤

[@Vilaeri]

the devastation I felt when I saw this was only posted one day ago was immeasurable. What do you mean I have to wait for the next books summary ;-; such a good video :)

[@stephneher22]

PLEASE make more!!! I am never EVER going to read these books but my friends won't stop talking about them 💀

[@badwu1f]

This energy about the book is EXACTLY how I feel and I need the entire series done like this. This is GOLD.

[@rachaelliddell9077]

Thank you for explaining a series that I had a mild curiousity on what it was about but had no general interest in reading. My adhd brain needed this

[@ktmac8]

I refuse to read these books on principle, so this is the best thing I've ever seen. These recaps are hilarious and reinforces that my personal Sarah J Maas ban was a valid choice.

[@MaggieRay96]

I have NEVER read these books, but I am LIVING for this video. I’m going to need a whole selection of books animated and narrated by you, please and thank you ☺️

[@opusbot]

I literally just finished this book yesterday. The way that I am absolutely HOWLING at this retelling. These are the opinions that I have had reading the book the entire time. Lol I love this, I can't wait to see if you do the rest.

[@hannahmatwaychukjohnson1268]

As someone who never read the books and only had the understanding that it was a fantasy novel and as someone who has heard the names being tossed around on social media not knowing who they were as characters, this was hilarious to watch 😆

[@fmuoasl27]

Agreed

[@doctorsmith4696]

the MULTITUDE of names for tamlin makes this soooooooooooooo much better

[@Mizuki3ify]

thank you for saving us TIME, MONEY, AND BRAIN CELLS
