» which series has a better first book? ACOTAR, Throne of Glass, or Crescent City? hello my friends, I’m going to go with ACOTAR for this one. It’s the one that hooked me almost instantly. But I do love all three book series. I would gladly reread any of them any day of the week. » hashtags:. #bibliophile #bookworm #booklove #bookstagrammer #instagramreads #booklover #bookstagram #acotar #acomaf #acowar #acourtofthornsandroses #acourtofmistandfury #throneofglass #readersofinstagram #booksofinstagram #bookcommunity #igreaders #bookphotography #booksbooksbook #bookstack #stackofbooks #stack #fantasybooks #authorappreciation #sjm #sarahjmaas #crescentcity #tog (at Boise, Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpf6EAKLEec/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
So I've got a question for all the ACOTAR fans out there. I would love to hear your input on this topic. I know that it seems like everyone absolutely hates Tamlin, but I have a thought that won't go away. As we all know, Rhysand was constantly raped for 50 years and Lucien was also sexually assaulted, but what about Tamlin (Perhaps every high lord...the Wiki says it's all the high lords, but it's debatable) during Calanmai? So him/they are forced every year to find a maiden to restore the magic every spring, also known as the Great Rite, and Lucien even told Feyre that "Tamlin won't be the Tamlin that you know," So it seems like Tamlin is forced every year to repeatedly have sex with at least one woman (and the women that are picked, seem to be eager to be the "chosen one"...at least that's how it's read in the book) on that night, and it doesn't seem like he is ashamed of it the next day.
(And since Lucien is my man, I have to stand up for him and say I know for a fact when he took over for Calanmai that last year before he escaped with Feyre, that he had absolutely no choice because he hated Ianthe, and yet he was forced to complete the Great Rite with her...and I hate the fact that she thought she was entitled to Lucien. Definitely SA. And I can't explain just how much I hate Ianthe.)
I know that people have a deep hatred for Tamlin, but I can say I hate the actions that Tamlin did, but I believe that he can still have redemption.
But anyway!!!! What do you all think about this subject. Do you think that Tamlin was being raped that night?
★ Fans of the Maasverse: Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses, or Crescent City? Look at me, asking questions I can’t even answer myself 🤣 ACOTAR is probably my favorite because it was the first of SJM’s series I had ever read, but I think I hold the most nostalgia for Throne of Glass—simply because reading it was transformative for me. I miss Throne of Glass a lot. And Crescent City is the world I’m most fascinated by and relate to the most! I still think it’s where her best work shines. ♥️ Have you read all of the books in the Maasverse? ★ HASHTAGS // #bookstagram #fantasybooks #booksofig #bookstack #acotar #sarahjmaas #throneofglass #crescentcity #acomaf #hoeab #hosab #rhysand #huntathalar #rhysand #acosf #acourtofthornsandroses #ruhndanaan #aelingalathynius #readingnook #bloomsburypublishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CnGAwP5P9Yx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
