Glori-Ya, who has been tasked with the assassination of Locke, toying with her prey as she finds herself becoming fascinated with this man. Fascinated, yes, in the way that a cat might be fascinated with a mouse, she lets him live another day. After all, playing the part of an Echidnaoplian Aristocrat in her spare time is much fun, after spending most of her life growing up in the Twilight Zone with the rest of the dark legion.

There is a correct answer and it is a redhead who calls alizeh angel, not some whiny ass prince.

idk whats funnier, the genuine worry in angela's tone when she asks if she's gonna stop getting cast in these videos if shes too bad at video games, vs amanda's very confident assertion of "no thats WHY they cast you" followed by "i would know, i've been in every single one" aslfjskfjsjfjsjfn

Not me being so excited for this book I got to the store before they even stocked the shelf. Anyway it’s a lovely day to read outside. I won’t be posting spoilers or reactions for a couple weeks though.

it just feels so significant that dany is a mother, even though her biological children died. she is the mother of dragons, mhysa, and the enslaved and oppressed are her children. she is caring and protective and maternal. she is a mother.

personally, I think her coming to terms with this is more impactful than her suddenly getting pregnant in the last book. she'll never have a son or a daughter and the pain of her miscarriages will always be there but she is still a mother. even though that pain will never completely heal, the love she had for rhaego is still there and the love she has for her people will never go away.

also, there's a question there: are you still a mother even when your children died? would catelyn still be a mother even if all the stark kids died? is dany still a mother, after losing rhaego before ever getting to hold him in her arms? I think, yes because the love is still there. the love will always be there.

I understand that her story moves in three's, and after two pregnancies, logically we can assume the third one will be successful and she'll have a living child. I just would find it so beautiful if dany realized, during a war against death, that she is and has been a mother for a long time now. even though she feels hopeless when she remembers she's barren, she can still find love and hope. she can find a romantic partner who will love her regardless of any potential children they could have. she will find, save, love, and protect so many children in her lifetime. even in the Long Night, she can know the sun will rise again.

and wouldn't it be bittersweet for her to never have a living child but to save countless children in her lifetime? for children all over the world to call her mhysa and mother? for her to love them so much she would fly to the ends of the earth and fight death itself for them? yet, none of them are rhaego or her little girl.

That's what the Long Night is all about really. Hope, love, and knowing the sun will rise again. fighting death itself for life, for the chance to live, for children you'll never meet and a sunrise you'll never see.

Thanks to @epicreads for providing me with a finished copy in exchange for an honest review

✩🫧🌸Review:

The stakes continue to heighten as Mafi slowly builds on her explosive series.

“All This Twisted Glory” picks up where the second installment leaves off with Alizeh searching for ways to fulfill her destiny as the heir to the Jinn throne. Cyrus, the ruler of Tulan, has offered his kingdom to her with one stipulation: she has to marry him and when time comes, take his life. His past is soaked in blood, so killing him should be easy, but the more she learns about him, the harder it is for her to believe he is the monster he makes himself out to be. What’s more, Prince Kamran arrives in Tulan ready to exact his revenge and he makes her an offer she can’t ignore.

With Kamran in Tulan, Alizeh’s two love interests are at odds. She finds herself being pulled in two different directions, unsure whether she should follow her heart or do what’s best for her people. Her inner conflict is so well done and Mafi doesn’t reveal who Alizeh will end up with until the very end, which kept me on my toes.

The addition of Cyrus’ point-of-view in this book allows readers to gain more insight into his character. While we are still left in the dark about the deal he made with Ibees, details about his past are slowly made known that shed light on the person he might have been if it weren’t for the devil’s intervention. His old hopes, dreams, and ambitions in addition to the torture he endures at Iblees’ hand add depth to his character and make him more sympathetic. The reader also gets to see just how deeply he feels for Alizeh and how tormented he is by Kamran’s interactions with her. 

Because Mafi spent a lot of time establishing the country of Tulan in “These Infinite Threads”, I expected more action in this book. In actuality, this was not the case. The majority of the book focuses on the palpable tension between Karman, Cyrus, and Alizeh instead of larger conflicts like the war between Tulan and Ardunia as well as the Jinn prophecy Alizeh must fulfill. The killer cliffhanger, however, proves that a lot is in store for book 4 and I cannot wait to see what Mafi has up her sleeves!

israeli forces have arrested ahed tamimi in the occupied west bank based on false accusations

the first time she got arrested, she was a teenager and it was because she punched a soldier after he shot her cousin. she was convicted and jailed like most palestinian children tried in israeli military courts. now she's been arrested again on the basis of false allegations.

in the beginning of the russia/ukraine war, her pictures and story were circulated, and people applauded her when they thought she was a ukrainian teen who had fought back against a russian soldier - when palestinians clarified the truth, most of the aforementioned people retracted their support. such double standards. israelis posted the bottom right picture as a 'victory' - clearly, israel's idea of victory is terrorizing civilians in their homes, from the occupied west bank to gaza.
