I can see myself having not gotten into this series till HoF only because without the prequel, I would have been not that into it.

    SPOILER ALERT: Love all those reviews. Just finished Throne of Glass after also reading ACOTAR. About to start Crescent City. I have to say though, I think Feyre was a badass at the start, to the best of her abilities, up until she left that mountain. Her tension with Nesta at the beginning is described as coming from both of them really (I remember reading smth saying that she gave as much as Nesta did when they fought). Then when Tamlin takes her away, she tries to do everything, even the most reckless things, to leave the Spring Court. And then she decides to go alone Under the Mountain which was incredibly badass (and reckless). Then she became the most annoying winy character and slowly (too slowly) got out of it (thanks to Rhys). I do think (maybe because we don't see enough of her in a Court of Silver Flame), that she mellows a bit in the last book. I don't know if it's because up until that mountain she was purely in survival mode so had to be badass, and then after the war ends she finally allows herself to just do what she be. But I thought we lost a bit of her "badassness" in that fifth book. I couldn't believe she just accepted that everyone lied to her about her pregnancy's likely outcome. Feyre from book 1 would have killed them all. And the behaviour that she tolerated from Nesta...I watched your review about the ACOTAR books and I remember you said you didn't like how Rhys was portrayed and I agree; I also just don't like how Feyre is portrayed. I'm hoping her character get more of that "badassness" in the next book.

    Definitely agree. Second one was my favorite too. I almost wish she had wrote out the 3rd a little better , like maybe only doing one POV per chapter instead of bouncing so much. Since the 4th house is the house of many waters , it would be interesting to see it as a prequel.

    M.H.: You totally got this…..Two Words Sister: Politics! Hear me out: Ok, so although I’ve lived out West for over 15 years, I grew up in the geographical area that you're in now and keep up with what’s going on. There is a lot happening politically in Cook County and considering that you're someone who wakes up to a clean-house, and goes to the Gym in the morning, that says a lot about your character (I do it too though, so I’m super biased). Anyway, if the name of the game is staying sober....I’m kinda doing the process of elimination here…..but I think it works in your favor. Bulls game to meet folks, gunna drink. Blackhawks game…See Bulls above. Concerts….gunna Drink. Bars….gunna Drink. Spring Cubbies games….Good-Lord. Taste of Chicago...See Bulls above. But find a political party you affiliate with (both need help), go to some of the local meetings and meet somewhat like-minded people and see what happens. It is politics, so some of them might be slightly psychotic, but that’s kinda par for the course these days! Looking great homie!!

    From my experience: making friends as an adult is something that is very difficult because by the time you're done with collage people have already made their own social circles and long term relationships (friendship related). who ever is left out after this age group are usually people who exhibit antisocial traits or who suffered from some sort of social setback like being isolated in a small town, bullied in school, too shy and just came out of his/her shell etc. Also there's the fact that as we get older people start building their families and getting married and having kids and they slowly fade out of our lives. This is not by any means intentional but life is just this way. The only way to get those sort of friends back is having your own partner and doing things together as a group. I think that for us as adults we will be having more casual friends who you may call situational friends. Friends that you meet at work, at the gym and those who are generally in the vicinity of you. They forget about you as soon as you get a new job somewhere else or move to a new place. I do agree with you that keeping up with your long time friends that you made through your educational journey or growing up is hard, also life forces people apart and this will require a lot of effort. In my opinion the best chances of meeting new people wanting to make new friends would be people in the same situation as you, people who recently moved to a new city and are feeling isolated. When I was working in a different city the friends I made were all people who also came to the same city for work and are not from there. Lastly stay safe out there and good luck!

    Really appreciate your perspective, Madeline. I'm in a kind of similar situation (just been a 1 year since I moved to a new place for work ofc) and its definitely hard to make friends like we did in our childhood place/college. People do have priorities as an adult and we have to put in extra efforts just to maintain that relationship which would anyways be easily built/maintained in college social circles. But I what found helpful for me was finding out people with similar interests, going to parks, book clubs, drama theatres (actually just putting yourself out there as you said). Although I haven't got many friends here, it definitely gets better day by day
