It’s been five whole years since Sarah J. Maas released A Court of Silver Flames. The release of A Court of Splintered Harmony hardly feels real — but it’s going to feel real when I’m standing outside Barnes & Noble tomorrow at 9 a.m., hoping to get my hands on a copy. (I did not pre-order, sorry.)
I’ve stayed out of the leaks, so I’m going in completely blind. But I’m just putting this out there now: I am a Gwynriel shipper. They are the superior ship. Plus, how lazy would it be for all three Bat Boys to be with the three Archeron sisters? (L-A-Z-Y)
P.S. I know we all have mixed feelings about Ezra and Aria, but can we let Lucy Hale and Ian Harding live? It was a fictional relationship. Don’t destroy their reunion for the rest of us.
Xoxo,
Swooon
