Which Second In Command fanart from ‘ACOTAR’ Is Your Favourite?
Rhysand’s seconds-in-command are two beauties who bite. Amren and Morrigan “Mor” keep everyone in line in the Night Court.
Mor and Amren have gone through so much and have persevered in the darkest times. They are the glue holding everyone together with Rhysand.
Which Archeron Sister Fanart From ‘ACOTAR’ Is Your Favourite?
The Archeron sisters have been interesting to follow the more Feyre interacts with them as a Fae. Nesta and Elain are vastly different, but they agree that remaining together is the best decision.
The sisters are all described beautifully in the book and the artistry in the fanart is nothing short of gorgeous.
Which BatBoys Fanart From ‘ACOTAR’ Is Your Favourite?
We LOVED A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas, one of Maude Garrett’s favourite books.
The three characters who stood out in this sequel are the “BatBoys.” They are pure Night Court Royalty. If you’ve been a fan of Rhysand, Cassian and Azriel, the three combined are lethal.
Which Rhysand Fanart Is Your Favourite?
We LOVED A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas, one of Maude Garrett’s favourite books.
There is one character who stands above the rest and that is, of course, Rhysand. We have searched to collect fanart for the High Lord of the Night Court.

From Book to Screen: Romancing Mister Bridgerton by Julia Quinn
For the past couple of years, Netflix has had grand success with the help of this series and the brilliant characters by Julia Quinn. Each season allows for a new couple to take the spotlight. The series has been a reminder that so many of us need love stories in our lives. The dating scene has changed drastically because of technology, so going back to the Regency Era to find romance has been well-needed.
Romancing Mister Bridgerton by Julia Quinn is the fourth novel in the Bridgerton series and highlights Penelope Featherington’s marriage to Colin Bridgerton. The longtime friends slowly find themselves at a crossroads as the yearning is now reciprocated. Colin does not know how or why this shift in perspective happened, all he knows is that he needs Penelope by his side at all times.
Book Review: ‘Funny Story’ by Emily Henry
Funny Story by Emily Henry shows the beauty in friendships and rediscovering yourself. It’s a refreshing read and there’s a level of honesty that has been hard to find in other romance novels. Henry has always been realistic with her characters and they’ve all felt grounded. It’s never just about romantic relationships, but how everyone can be affected by others in their lives. Where can trauma or loss stem from and how does that manifest into something else?
The ‘Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow’ by Gabrielle Zevin Has Found Its Director!
Maude Garrett even interviewed her and told Zevin how much this book affected her. It’s a beautiful novel that many readers didn’t expect to love as much as they did. Zevin’s writing is a gut punch to the soul as she crafts a stunning relationship between two people.
Paramount Studios had acquired the rights to the book in 2021 before its publishing date in 2022. It has taken quite a bit of time to develop everything, news broke out over the weekend that has fans of the best-selling novel soaring.
Is Casting Underway For ‘Beach Read’ By Emily Henry?
In the middle of last year Maude Garrett, Amanda Tass, and Amanda Guarragi (me), all read books by Emily Henry. If you don’t follow us on Goodreads, then come on over! After reading Book Lovers, Beach Read and Happy Place, we are all awaiting the release of Funny Story in April.
It’s hard to tell which film will come to fruition first, but Henry continuously surprises readers by posting on her Instagram story. And we feel that Beach Read will be the first one with a confirmed cast.
