I'm getting mad about it all over again, if a man threatened my sister, much less threatened to kill her, I would crash out. Stand up Feyre, ACOTAR Feyre would not have tolerated this.

You ever just think about how N*sta thought about becoming a prostitute and/or begging for elaine but made excuses when Feyre asked her to chop wood and go absolutely feral? Me too.

I'm tired of books pitting female characters against one another and profiting off the drama it causes with readers.
Give me an ACOTAR rewrite where Nesta, Elain, and Feyre are a terrifying trio together. They fight, they don't get along all the time, but when Tamlin comes crashing through their front door, they'd sooner gut him than be separated. Tomas' body is hidden somewhere on their tiny plot of land, and men die all the same if you know where to make them bleed.
Give me an ACOTAR where Feyre sees how her found family decides to treat her blood family and doesn't stand for it. Where she rages at them for ever thinking they could send one sister away and lock the other up in a room for her "safety". She reminds them the it isn't just thanks to one Archeron that they won an impossible war.
Give me an ACOTAR where Mor doesn't hate Nesta because of a man she doesn't even want, but she understands her trauma and relates to her because they've both gone through horrible things at the hands of men with too much power. They clash and snipe at one another, it's a pain to be in the same room as them sometimes, but they both hold a silent respect for the other because a survivor always recognizes another survivor.
Give me an ACOTAR where Elain's personality doesn't change every book to suit the authors needs. She is still quiet and loves gardening because not every single woman has to be a warrior, but in her flowerbeds, poisonous plants sprout just in case. Because she'll never be held captive again. Because she hears and sees more than anyone expects, and no one ever thinks twice when she hands them a cup of tea.
Give me an ACOTAR where the Lady of Autumn actually has a name. Where we see how much she's had to sacrifice, including the supposed strongest bond a fae could have, and that she hasn't faltered through hundreds of years. An ACOTAR where Beron had to tie her to him with ancient magic because her own far surpassed his and that terrified him.
Give me an ACOTAR where Rhys' mother and sister are more than just "Rhys' mother and sister". His mother was trapped in a loveless marriage not just because of a mating bond, but because of the power of her new position allowing her to help other women like her. His sister scorned for being a half-breed like he is, but proudly showing off her wings to any Illyrian who claims she was underneath him.
Give me an ACOTAR that actually has complex female characters and relationships and isn't so horribly male-centered despite it's MCs always being women.

"Cut her."
Two words, barely more than a whisper. Almost quiet enough to get lost underneath the crying and praying and pleading.
Almost, but not quite, all eyes in the room suddenly focusing on Rhysand with a mixture of emotions behind them. Shock, sorrow, outrage. But he didn't turn his own gaze away from Majda, who grimaced at his answer.
'Your wife, or your heir. You will not have both.'
"Rhys-" Mor began, discomfort palpable. He only held up a hand, however, silencing her easily. Tension lined his body- the scent of Feyre's blood would be saturated in the walls for weeks. They were on borrowed time.
"It's what she would choose. Our son is who she would choose. Cut her."
One beat.
Another.
Chaos, suddenly, the noise increasing tenfold as everyone fought to let their opinion be heard. Louder than all of that, though, slicing through the cacophony, was a snarl so vicious it sounded more animal than fae.
Elain.
Elain, not Nesta, had her teeth bared in a snarl, feet planted firmly in front of Feyre's birthing bed.
"You will not touch her."
