Finally reading ACOSF and maybe its the stuff I saw recently about Rhys not being such a great romantic lead after all or maybe its just seeing it all through Nesta's eyes but I don't like him and feyre anymore! Feyre especially seems to dress in 2010 autumn chic (or my brain imagines it as such after her dress sense in acofas) and its like GIRL u are in a fantasy universe act like it! And I find their approach to Nesta troubling. A few chapters in it is clear Nesta is self destructing from so much trauma from her transformation, the war, the loss of her parents. Did they ever try to talk to her about these things? It doesnt seem like it! So what Feyre wanted Nesta to join their little club and extended every invitation to their home and the luxury of their riches etc. And then scold her for her bad behaviour or hold big interventions to "help" the symptoms of her problems without ever really trying to get to the root of it. I feel like any ordinary group of friends would have a shared trauma having met the end of the world and an incredible war that changed everything, but Nesta has kept that all buried. But the thing is it really should be quiet obvious. Like the girl has been through aLot and isnt coping well. Shes not just an alcoholic cos she feels like it. And feyre and the inner circle wna act all high and mighty crying at breakfast how hard it will be to finally cut nesta off after letting her sabotage herself for a year and only being like "wtf nesta why r u doing this its almost like u have devestating trauma we all dont talk abt ever"
But none of these characters seem haunted by the events of book 3 except Nesta? Feyre and her court of frost and starlight tumblr chic aesthetic and her overly ostentation house that from the description doesnt sound very homely just a glare of wealth. Feyres tastes are so basic just a mansion from beverly hills sjm saw on pinterest. Like picture a mansion thats what it looks like yippee, theres nothing greatly wrong with it I just dont find it very imaginative and paired with Feyre's fashion sense she just comes of as a rich white american girl and not the high lady of the night court? Like perhaps have that motif spread out through your home? Cant she even have a pet that represents her night court high lady vibes? She was meant to be the dark queen but she doesnt actually fit at all. But I do admit when I read the story from Feyres point of view I really liked her (mostly) rhysand was my king! And i ate the whole thing up!
But again the whole approach w nesta doesnt sit right w me and I dont think sjm even intended for it to come off that way.
Theyre Probably not affected as nesta because Rhys, Azriel, Cassian and Amren are 500+years old and have done it 12,000x and the age gaps have suddenly really hit me like.... Nesta and Feyre are like 21/22 yrs old. Feyre was 18 when Rhys prowled on her. I was 18 when I read the book so I didnt care but now that Im older I dont like that ageless old man in a young fae body anymore! How could they meet this 18year old traumatised girl and make her their queen. Yh i guess shes pretty and smart (debatable) but she didnt even get powers till book 3....Anyway thats where im at with this book we'll see if they have an actual emotional and psychological heart to heart to help Nesta instead of controlling a trauma victims life in a very rigid and confrontational manner that imo if it were me I wld absolutely lash out against. Like how about Feyre had this conversation in private with Elaine present, instead of Rhysand and Amren that Nesta doesnt like glaring down at her and randomly being told that Elaine wasnt on her side either. Its a bit toxic and badly handled.
