Fae books are some of my favorite, so in honor of my favorite Irish poet, let's have a quick round-up of books with Fae!

OR Melling's The Chronicles of Faerie Series, which includes The Hunter's Moon, The Summer King, The Light Bearer's Daughter, and The Book of Dreams

Literally 99% of everything Juliet Marillier has ever written, with Dreamer's Pool and Wildwood Dancing being my favorites

Brittany N. Williams's That Self-Same Metal

Not one of my favorites, but Holly Black's The Cruel Prince has a metric ton of fae

Terri Windling's The Raven Queen (and the rest of the Voyage of the Basset Series)

Eoin Colfer's Artemis Fowl and The Fowl Twins series

CE Murphy's Walker Papers series and Negotiator Trilogy

Illona Andrews's Magic Bites

Olivia Atwater's Regency Faerie Tales trilogy

Herbie Brennan's The Faerie Wars Chronicles

Gail Carson Levine's books, including Ella Enchanted, The Two Princesses of Bamarre, and The Princess Tales volumes 1 and 2

William Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream

Remembering that Oak has goat legs is almost as shocking to me as finding out that Holly Black confirmed that Valerian was sexually attracted to Jude.

#this book series is so weird but i'm living for it #jude pulling faerie men left right and center is so iconic of her #the cruel prince #the wicked king #the queen of nothing #the folk of the air #tfota #jude #cardan #jude duarte #cardan greenbriar #holly black #jude x cardan #cardan x jude #oak #oak greenbriar #valerian #the stolen heir #the prisoner’s throne

I suppose most children fall in love with faeries at some point, but my fascination was never about magic or the granting of wishes. The Folk were of another world, with its own rules and customs-and to a child who always felt ill-suited to her own world, the lure was irresistible.

Perhaps it is always restful to be around someone who does not expect anything from you beyond what is in your nature.

dru in her happy place - her nose in a good horror book - i think she’s currently reading dracula 🩸

(i’m loving designing bedrooms for our beloved characters! i just know dru would approve of these black mushroom walls and spooky posters)

We don't talk enough about how funny the dreamer shit in ACOTAR is. The IC are all sitting around acting like they're these underdogs when they are literally the government. Wdym you're dreaming of a better world... that's your fuckin job. Get to it, chop chop!

#anti inner circle #anti sjm #acotar #this is unironically why it's fair game to criticize these 'silly faerie books' for how the hewn city and illyria are written #these characters are positioned as people who want to make the world a better place and do literally nothing to advance their 'dreams'#'to the stars and those who wish or whatever the fuck'#WHO are you wishing to???

Rath Roiben Rye, everybody's first book boyfriend! The struggle with fae characters is making them look beautiful, but in a nonhuman way. I had real trouble with this sketch

What if I am too much? If I need too much?” she asks, her voice very low. He takes a deep breath, his smile gone. “I’m not good. I’m not kind. Maybe I am not even safe. But whatever you want from me, I will give you. —The Prisoners Throne

"this is why I work alone. I could have been out of the door with Wendell already"

Can we please talk about how Emily, who values her space above everything, and is the most introverted to borderline antisocial person in existence, is so comfortable with Wendell that working with him is synonymous to working alone for her?
