In this spoiler-free breakdown of chapter 27 of A Court of Thorns and Roses, Ariel and Corryn are processing the emotional fallout from Rhysand’s surprise visit right alongside Feyre. Tamlin is going full-beast mode, Feyre’s blaming herself, and we’re all left wondering what exactly the blight really means when Amarantha is clearly the Big Bad.

And just when Feyre’s ready to stay and fight alongside Tamlin… he decides to send her away to protect her. We’re talking about how this decision sets everything in motion, the tension between Feyre’s agency and Tamlin’s overprotectiveness, and how it all ties into the book’s title.

But don’t fret too much friends, because FEYRE AND TAMLIN FINALLY DO THE DEED!!! We dive into why this scene feels more like a shift in emotional power than just physical intimacy, why Tamlin’s 180 from Calanmai matters, and how Sarah J. Maas gives us just enough spice to satisfy us while still holding back.

Whether you're here for emotional angst, fae court drama, or a much-awaited bedroom moment: you’re welcome and we’re sorry.
