READING VLOG✨🌙🗡| reading a court of silver flames!!

[@roxi4317]

I was thinking that Rhys is different in this book because it’s from Nesta’s Pov, she perceives him differently to Feyre and the two of them don’t really get along which is why it makes sense that she sees him as an asshole. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Although, I do agree he wasn’t nearly as likeable in this book

[@missy_naneylove3457]

You have to remember that this book is in Nesta's Pov so naturally she's the one who hate the fae first. For me, Rhys's actions all based on his love to Feyre and Nyx. And Nesta treated Feyre so bad just because she felt like a failure. This book literally just to show how Nesta is changing and healing her trauma. And this book also in my fav no 2 from ACOTAR series. Love it.

[@kianalikesbooks]

i have to say, rhysand being mean thing. was valid asf. nesta took advantage of everyone’s kindness and also, her mental health isn’t an excuse to treat everyone the way she did. does it make her a bad person? absolutely not. she wrote her wrongs and i think it happened the way it was suppose to

[@b2ksflyhoney]

I got to be honest if I was Rhys I would be mean to Nesta too. You made my partner suffer for yearsss due to her entitlement & laziness & to top it off she was so mean!! And she comes to the night court and she continues to be mean and mooch off of Rhysand and Feyre. With that said I’m glad Nesta had this character development because before she was insufferable 😩

[@mekaelacooper_]

yessss, she was so insufferable and i really tried to give her the benefit of the doubt bc we all struggle with mental illness and yes it super tricky and completely complicated but the fact that she ACKNOWLEDGED the way she was acting and still continued to do so on SO many occasions and still continued to cross the line no matter how much she seemed to regret it really threw the book off for me like halfway through the book, but it definitely drew me in toward the second half of the book. and as far as rhys, he had no obligation to be cordial with her in the first place bc of what she did to feyre. feyre had tried on MANY occasions to make her feel welcomed despite the circumstances and she COMPLETELY shit on her, rhys, and elaine, or really anybody she could set her sights on. so i say ryhs reacted WAY better than i would have. rant over lol

[@nerdgirl8978]

I'm also on Rhys side, though I admit it was bad not to tell her about the pregnancy threat. 🤔 At the same time I think he might have after some time. I don't think he kept the information that long and I think she was quite far gone in her pregnancy when they discovered the wings too, too far for a safe termination anyway (which I think Feyra had refused to do anyway). If she had tried an abortion, it would probably be the type when she has to birth it out, and that would have given the same result. ...I wonder if Nesta's explosion of power (that even rattled the day court) at the blood rite made Feyra go into early labour since she was so sensitive to magic at that time.

[@waggishremarks]

A lot of other people have said the same thing, but I’ll add: Rhys annoyed me when I first started reading this, but we also see NONE of Rhys POV in this book. Rhys has access to Feyre’s memories and past with Nesta, and not seeing their conversations surrounding what is happening to Nesta definitely reminds me that there’s more to the story. Nesta is the epitome of unreliable narrator. But that’s also why loved this book so much - love me a flawed girl dealing with her PTSD.

[@nerdgirl8978]

It frustrates me a lot that there is so much stuff happening off page that I really wanted to experience. I sort of hope that we would get a book with several P.O.V's happening parallel to this book. Rhys hunting for information in different court's on how to save Feyra and them dealing with their emotions about the situation, and what Morigan and Lucian is up to. So much stuff I wanted to know.

[@rena9405]

very late but i just finished this book today and katie you have every right to not like rhysand as much after this book. i never was obsessed with rhysand like everyone else was because he was just too perfect to me like even when he lied to feyre in acomaf and acowar he always had an excuse but I definitely did not like him not telling feyre that she could potentially die in childbirth because he took away here freedom of making a decision of terminating or continuing the pregnancy. i did enjoy the heartfelt moment between him and nesta at the end of acosf but I hated how he treated nesta so bad and he's an okay character to me now. definitely not as great as my baby cassian

[@fenna_reads]

This video had THE MOST perfect timing ever! I just came home from school and got ACOSF in the mail. I’m also wearing an orange hoodie btw haha. I loved your video, cuz it made me SO exited to read this book! Starting it right now😍

[@katieisreading]

amazing haha it must be a sign, i hope you absolutely love it!! so glad i could make you even more excited to dive into it!

[@readwithzoe1412]

I love ACOSF and I really liked that there is „no“ plot. Bestes Journey was so beautiful and I cried so much while reading this, I’m glad that there is not a big plot that over shadows this journey

[@katieisreading]

i really enjoyed that there wasn’t a strong plot in this book as well! you’re right, it really gives nestas personal journey to be the main focus of the book and i really enjoyed that!

[@toby986]

Rhysand is all about protecting Feyra. He is the one witnesses the affect the nasty things Nesta says have on Feyra. It is easy to understand why Nesta behaves the way she does but that does not justify the things she says or stop her words from hurting those around her.

[@hyemiyah]

congrats on 3k!!! and i love how you match your tabs with the book. honestly, your reading vlogs always put me in the mood to read, so thank you

[@katieisreading]

thank you!!!!❤️ also i saw the opportunity for the matching tab and i just have to take it! and that makes me so happy to hear

[@darianstarr9036]

I just wanna stop by and say thank you! I’ve been binge watching your videos for a week now and I’m obsessed! Lol. You have inspired me to read more and I’m proud to say I’ve finished two books since I starting watching your channel! Keep up the good work! :)

[@joud45]

I just finished thissss and it wassss ahhhhhhh honestly I loved the characters development and relationships and cared for them much more than the plot itself 😅❤

[@alliesbooknook]

omg omg, I am so glad you loved this book! It was my favorite book of 2021. The blood rite was one of my favorite scenes of the book, I loved the stakes involved and how badass the girls were.

[@katieisreading]

ahh it is def on the top of my favs list now!! i agree, the blood rite was such a cool addition to the story!!

[@dianeboudrias5231]

I have to say that this book was superb!!! It was my favourite and then my second favourite was... A court of mist and fury.

[@katieisreading]

this one and acomaf really do hit different than the others😭

[@nikitabyrne3677]

I saw someone say before the reason we all love Rhys in the second and third book is because we see the version of him he shows to feyre but he’s actually very different around others

[@Jess-dv6py]

yess I feel the exact same way about this book! (Rhys character development really went backwards in this one) And Im so glad you loved Howl's moving castle, it's literally one of my favourite movies of all time!

[@katieisreading]

yes!! i literally don’t see why sjm did that to rhys!!! and i absolutely adore the book and the movie! the movie specifically is now one of my all time favs as well

[@nerdgirl8978]

Next time we see the ACOTAR characters is 6 months after this book ends. In the ending of Cresent City 2 and in 1/3 of Cresent City 3. 😉

[@CoralTheWitch2023]

I LOVE your vlogs! I just read this series. I LOVED all of it! My favorite books are ACOMAF and ACOSF. YES! The female friendships in this book are so awesome! And of course I love Nesta and Cassian! I ended up forgiving Rys at the end of this book … He had so much on his plate in this book.

[@bookishwithji]

Hey Katie!! I am obsessed with all of your reading vlogs I’ve been bingeing them 😂 I’m about to start the ACOTAR series soon so this is very exciting!!

[@cindyd.01]

Wow awesome journal 😊

[@LorisBookTrials]

I am getting ready to reread this book. I agree what you said about Rhysand. But I really freaking love the friendship between those 3 and seeing Cassian and Nesta's romance bloom. And the freaking library, my favorite character in the book, lol!!!

[@katieisreading]

i hope you enjoy your reread! and as much as rhys upset me in this book, the female friendships really made up for it!! i also loved the sentient library!! it was so weird but also such a fun addition to the story

[@Maggieamongbooks]

I LOVE this book and your vlog reading it!! 🧡 totally felt the same about Rhys! Also, this book made me liked Nesta so much, and I never thought that could happen 😂 I want more about these characters!!

[@katieisreading]

thank you!! this book definitely changed my view on rhys and nesta DRASTICALLY! really hoping for an azriel or elain centered book now😩

[@marusyamii3006]

I love how you edit your videos. Especially your readings vlogs❤️

[@katieisreading]

thank you so much!!💖

[@bryanawoodson3724]

One thing about Rhys…he gon’ hold a GRUDGE when it comes to mistreating his girl 😂

[@katieisreading]

a very fair point… but he just makes me mad😭😭

[@Jess-dv6py]

Also love the earrings! Ive been thinking about buying them for a couple weeks and today I finally caved and bought them :)

YAY i’m still obsessed with them, i’m literally wearing them right now😭 i hope you love them!

[@skye_pow]

I love watching your videos🥺they’re so calming and enjoyable to watch :) I’m glad you enjoyed acosf as it’s one of my favourite books🥺 are you planning on reading crescent city?💞

[@katieisreading]

aw that makes me so happy to hear!!🥺💖 it’s definitely one of my favs now as well! im not sure yet honestly? originally i wasn’t planning on it, but now that ive seen all the hype for sky and breath it’s making me want to read the series??

[@tajudeen2691]

Really like your content and your videos Katie Was really hoping you get more views for the good quality content you put I really love it reading vlogs so much ❤️❤️❤️ Keep posting more vlogs and make us more intersted in reading books

[@katieisreading]

oh my gosh thank you so much💖 you so kind, i love making them so hearing your feedback literally means so much to me❤️❤️

[@shannonaardsma4782]

I like the idea of underlining with a ruler... I'm too lazy to do it, but I like it!

[@katieisreading]

im just too particular about how i want my annotations to look to not use one😭 it’s a pain honestly

[@shannonaardsma4782]

@@katieisreading Aww, well I'm sure it looks great!!

[@julia9577]

im actually mad that people are defending rhys here, the book was not in nesta’s pov. it was 3rd person narrative, it followed nesta but it was not her opnions.

[@ghouling1111]

Remember we are reading Rhysand from Nesta's pov.. He might be trying but she can't see it..

[@amandaray_art]

I’ve just finished this series today, and I totally agree with you about Rhys. It’s so conflicting because ACOMAF is still carrying my love for him on its back, but he was so extra in this book. I didn’t mind at first because I figured him and Nesta would have a change of heart for each other, but it took so long to get them to a decent place 😭🤣 It’s been such an emotional rollercoaster these last several weeks lol. I will definitely re-reading acomaf soon 😂

[@cindycristobal8738]

If I’m going to finish reading this series most likely I will skip the last book. I just don’t like the female lead character in this book. I’m holding a huge grudge against Nesta. 😂. Not sorry at all.

[@amandaray_art]

@@cindycristobal8738 😂😂 you’re definitely not alone in the fandom. But I do think Silver Flames is worth giving a try (even if it’s just to get all those details that will come to play in future books 👀). I personally enjoyed it despite a few criticisms. That being said, I was always curious about Nesta. I didn’t like she treated my girl Feyre, but I figured there might be more than meets the eye and I wanted to see her become better.

[@angie-bd6vw]

Ngl thought acosf was a bit boring lol but I think acotar isn't for me, like it was cute yes for them to have a friendship but I didn't feel connected to the characters. Also yeah rhys behavior in this book... kinda SUS. I think I remember him telling feyre she shouldn't do a thing or whatever I can't really remember and I thought oop tamlin behavior much? 👀

[@katieisreading]

it’s definitely really slow and if you’re not into it then oof… but i was really about to box rhys during this entire book i swear😤😤 i remember reading that line! very very sus👀👀

[@martacastells562]

SPOILERS BEWARE!!!! ACOSF is my favourite book from the ACOTAR world because Nessian. I love them with all I am and Cassian is, for me, the better male. I love Rhys but this book broke my heart for him. Like, dude, his actions towards Nesta and Feyre... it was an instant no from me. It is true that we have seen Rhys from the pov of people who love him and respect him and have known him for a while, and now seeing him through Nesta's eyes is shocking because we already have had this idea of him painted on our minds. I still love him because ACOMAF is a master piece and I always will love Rhys from there, but still, it hurts. There are so many things that I loved about this book, the Valkyries reborn, other character's journeys and background stories, and of course Nesta's development. I love her, she has always been my favourite and I love that now she is getting the love and recognition she is due. Would love to know your thoughts on anything else! It's been a year since I read the book but I still want to talk about it with anyone who loves it as much as well. Love your content!

[@katieisreading]

acosf is literally so close to being my fav of the series i swear😫 i also agree that cassian is the better male… rhys pissed me off so much in this book there’s not even a competition anymore, but i also keep thinking about how much i adore acomaf and it makes me reevaluate, it’s just complicated now😔 but i am so glad that we finally got this insight into nesta’s personality because i love her now too!! i wasn’t a huge fan in the originally trilogy but that’s definitely just the lack of page time / seeing her through feyres pov, i love that you’re still so excited to talk about this book a year later haha!! i will also be talking about this book for a WHILE haha, and thank you so much!!

[@parisveronica4202]

remember tho, nesta’s view of rhys and his actions are also biased and often tend to villainize him due to the fact that she never wanted to like him

[@museofcoffee]

Have you read Crescent City?????

[@katieisreading]

i haven’t… but i feel like i should?? i don’t know, would you reccomend?

[@museofcoffee]

@@katieisreading This isn't a spoiler but if you love the ACOTAR series then you will love both Crescent City books!!!!
