I needed to see if I could still draw Rhysand. Also, perfect excuse to play with lighting, especially with the High Lord of the night court.

I honestly couldn’t help myself. It was too perfect.

A COURT OF WINGS AND RUIN TUMBLR GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!

Hey lovely bookworms!

Since I had some interest the other day about a giveaway I’ve decided I’m going to do it. The giveaway will be for 1 copy of A Court of Wings and Ruin!!!!

On Tumblr I’m currently about 80 followers away from 2.5k (eeeepppp) so in celebration of that and the ACOWAR release (May 2nd, 2017) I’m going to give away a copy of the book!!

Since I’m Canadian the ACOWAR copy I’ll be giving away will be the Indigo Exclusive hardcover copy of A Court of Wings and Ruin. This copy has @charliebowater​ and Coralie Jubénot ( @merwild​ ) fan art in it and coloured end pages.

I accidentally ordered a few too many copies of ACOWAR and instead of requesting a refund I just thought I would do a giveaway for the books when they arrive. I’ve always wanted to do one so why not now. :p 

This giveaway will be open internationally, and I will cover all shipping costs for the winners.

That I would never be a gentle grower of things, or someone who burned like fire—but that I would be quiet and enduring and as faceted as the night. That I would have beauty, for those who knew where to look, and if people didn’t bother to look, but to only fear it… Then I didn’t particularly care for them, anyway. I wonder if, even in my despair and hopelessness, I was never truly alone.

Still not over Aleksander

Killing off Aleksander was the WORST. POSSIBLE. THING. Bardugo could have done for the Grisha Trilogy and I’m about to tell you why.

First off, the most major thing I think I should cover here, everyone’s reasoning for Aleks dying. It all seems to be that “the villain turning good and siding with the heroes in the end is sooOOOOooo cliche.” Alright. Fine. Name me ONE FUCKING BOOK OR MOVE WHERE THAT HAPPENS. ONE!!! Please! Because I’d love to read a book or watch a movie where the “villain” is redeemed. I never have before, it’d be a nice experience.

Secondly, Bardugo spent a shit ton of the first book AND the second making it seem like there was hope for Alarkling. That’s a shit ton of page time FUCKING WASTED IF YOU ASK ME. Let’s take Red Queen, for example. The whole thing with Maven? That was good shit. Broke my heart, but it was good. You know WHY it was so good? Because Aveyard only spent a portion of the first book making you think Maven was chill. That there was hope for that relationship. SHE DIDN’T WASTE TWO WHOLE BOOKS ADDING TO THE RELATIONSHIP TO HAVE HIM POINTLESSLY DIE AT THE END!!! And actually, it wasn’t even two. It was more like 2 ¾. Smfh.

Aleksander definitely could have been redeemed. The whole killing of the orphanage shit didn’t have to happen, the “I will strip away everything you know and love till you have no shelter but mine” didn’t have to happen (I honestly think it was out of character, not gonna lie), and he could have been saved. Not to mention, Alina ending up with Mal was complete shit. I would have been more okay with Aleks dying if she had ended up with Nikolai, which was literally the only thing that MADE SENSE OTHER THAN ALEKS.

The book literally ended EXACTLY how it started, and instead of that being literary genius, it was absolute bullshit. Alina losing her powers and ending with the same shitty dude she started with (and oh yes, Mal is a shitty guy, but that’s a post for another time) was ridiculous. It threw away any and all character development of Alina’s that could have possibly happened throughout the trilogy. Everything she learned about her powers and herself was for NOTHING.

I want the ending half of the trilogy REWRITTEN.
