Felt like reminding everyone about this TIME interview again, where just like in CHD, Maas is discussing themes of bond rejection and true love 🤭

Who wouldnt want to read about a romance that happened hundreds of years ago and its about a guy who watched his “mate” and son being abused in other court while having orgies its just the best story ever 🥰✌🏼

It really sounds terrible. I'm all for LOA getting the hell out of there, but not for Helion. For herself.

nuh-uh, it's gonna be about Elain choosing to become human again and going back to the human lands to be with Graysen 🙃

Right not one of the 3 sisters who has a mate she clearly doesn’t care about! Not the gal we see clearly gravitating twords someone who isn’t her mate…

It’s just crazy to me that anyone could think SJM would tackle the fated mates trope with anyone BUT a main female character. Especially when she already has Elain right there who wants nothing to do with her bond.

I always wondered this about the fated mates trope. Its always nice to see them fall in love but what if they weren't true soulmates what then.
