ACOMAF Chapter 5 ended on a pretty huge cliffhanger: Rhysand wants to teach Feyre to read. I have no idea what direction this chapter could possibly take. A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 6: “You’re going to be a High Lord’s wife,” Rhys said. “You’ll be expected to maintain your own correspondences, perhaps even give […]

This seems like as good a time as any to admit that between the title of the sequels and how all the love interests either have claws or wings or whatever, I keep misreading the title as A Court of Mist and Furries. A Court of Mist and Fury: Chapter 7 The chapter kicks off right […]

Calendar Girl (June) Chapter 5: Warren catches Mia and Kathleen in his secret shrine to his late wife: “Sorry, Warren. I got curious. It was the only door in the whole house that was locked.

Yeah, not much else to say about this chapter. She does the thing this book in the series is about. Calendar Girl (June): Chapter 6 Mia is at another fundraiser, being Warren’s arm candy while he networks and mingles with other absurdly rich men, saying things to Mia like, “you spend a spell with the […]

A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 8: After Tamlin and Lucien interrogated Feyre about her time at Night Court, I ridiculously assumed that Feyre and Tamlin would discuss their botched wedding.

Not in a sexy way. You read this blog, you know what Fifty Shades is really about. A Court of Mist and Fury: Chapter 9 Alis talks with Feyre about the events of the last chapter. “You gave your jewels to a water-wraith,” Alis mused […] “They’re a slippery sort.” “She said they were starving— that they […]

Calendar Girl (June): Chapter 8 This chapter doesn’t even discuss the plot of this novella until the very end, because I guess Audrey Carlan just decided to cut her losses with June‘s “sexy networking erotica” concept around this point. So instead the chapter kicks off with Mia mulling over her feelings for Wes. Again. Did I love Wes? Of […]

What? Matthew is writing a Bad Romance Advice, Good Times post? You might be asking yourself. Well, it only took him five years. What’s this all about?

A Court of Mist and Fury: Chapter 12 Feyre’s return to Tamlin’s court prompts a full lock-down, with Tamlin not allowing her out of sight of the house. Her return also unintentionally prompts her to summarize the sequel’s story so far: nothing happens, and don’t even ask about it. Some nameless threat had broken onto the […]

Calendar Girl (June) Chapter 9: New York City was everything I’d ever dreamed of and more. The city was teeming with people, lights, towering buildings, and the best part… diversity. Great, because people of “every nationality, color, creed, ethnicity” have definitely been treated with respect and dignity throughout this series thus far! In the same breath, […]

A Court of Mist and Fury Chapter 13: Feyre wakes up at the Night Court with Rhys watching over her, “No kindness in his eyes.

It’s important I remind you that this book was written in honor of Mother’s Day by KFC: For mothers everywhere, I dedicate this to you— a brief escape from motherhood into the arms of your fantasy Colonel. Whoever he may be. I am honestly in awe of whichever KFC employee pitched the idea of the […]

Yes, this is real. We’re still reading the Harlequin-esque romance novella that KFC released in honor of Mother’s Day. What a time to be alive.
