Warning : This article check pillager for the Court of Thorns & Roses and Throne of Glass series .
Summary
A Court of Thorns & Rosespaints a compelling romance narrative , especially in its former installments , butI wish it would keep an eye on one vogue from theThrone of Glassbooks . Sarah J. Maas ' phantasy seriesexcel when it comes to relationships , butACOTARfocuses more heavily on romantic bonds than her young adult novel . toilet of Glasshas toilsome romance subplots as well , but its story feels more balanced . The characters are endue in their romantic relationships , but they also have a pile of other things move on throughout the series ' run .
Comparing Celaena Sardothien — later known as Aelin Galathynius — with Feyre Archeron is difficult to do , asMaas ' fancy heroinesare improbably different . For the most part , their deviation make them more interesting , setting the two stories apart from one another . However , there is one ingredient of Celaena ’s storey that I wish Maas would retroflex during Feyre ’s journey . Even if Feyre is no longer the key focal point of theCourt of Thorns & Rosesbooks , it ’s not too previous to make this modification .
Those who make out Sarah J. Maas ’ A Court of Thorns & Roses book may be looking for something alike , especially while they look for new message .

I Wish Feyre Had Stronger Relationships With The Other Women In ACOTAR
Feyre’s Only Friendships Are Formed Through Rhysand
Although Feyre is a compelling heroine in her own right , I ca n’t help but feel that her storey throughoutA Court of Thorns & Rosesis leave out something . And it ’s somethingThrone of Glassdoes very well . While Feyre ’s relationship with Rhysand is well - developed , most of her other bail inACOTARare formed through him . The majority of Feyre ’s friendly relationship are with member of the Night Court , and her only other prominent human relationship are with her sisters . She does n’t get along with Nesta or Elain very well , so that does n’t weigh for much .
It ’s a shame that Feyre does n’t have any of her own ally before leaving for Prythian , and she does n’t make any truly compelling friendly relationship after join the world of the Fae .
It ’s a shame that Feyre does n’t have any of her own friends before leave behind for Prythian , and she does n’t make any really compelling friendships after joining the world of the Fae . In fact , the members of the Inner Circle turn out they ’re Rhysand ’s friends over hers inA Court of Silver Flames , when they keep important secrets from Feyre . Feyre ’s only friend who is n’t Rhysand ’s first is Lucien , and she has a falling out with him afterACOMAF.Plus , I’d love to see Feyre befriend other adult female in theACOTARbooks , but she mainly sticks to Rhysand ’s Inner Circle and acquaintances like Ressina .

A Court Of Thorns & Roses Would Have Benefited From This Throne Of Glass Trend
Throne Of Glass Excels At Portraying Female Friendships
I ’m surprisedA Court of Thorns & Rosesdoesn’t boast more well - written female friendship , asMaas excels at portraying these types of bonds inThrone of Glass . Although most of Celaena ’s relationships originate off a second jolty , she finish the series with legion connections with other woman , all of which are compelling and fully her own . Her friendship with Nehemia in the first twoThrone of Glassbooks has its issue , but it sees the two char growing to be incredibly fond of one another — at least untilCrown of Midnightcompletely wastes Nehemia ’s character .
Even after Nehemia ’s death , her memory crusade Celaena to move frontwards , highlighting the strength of their bond . Andshe is n’t the only adult female to positively affect Celaena ’s lifeand missionthroughout theThrone of Glassbooks . Ansel and Celaena form a strong friendship inThe Assassin ’s Blade , and despite a major betrayal , Ansel come to her acquaintance ’s assistance inEmpire of Storms . Lysandra also starts the serial as Celaena ’s enemy , but they grow to trust one another when Celaena takes back her identity element and attempts to recover her pot .
Why Celaena’s Relationships In Throne Of Glass Are More Satisfying Than Feyre’s
They Feel More Earned & They’re Her Own
None of Celaena ’s distaff friendships inThrone of Glassstart on the unspoiled footing , but this is why they feel more hearty than any of Feyre ’s bonds inA Court of Thorns & Roses . While Feyre diminish in with Rhysand ’s Inner Circle pretty easily , Celaena ’s platonic relationships inThrone of Glassfeel earned . We get the opportunity to see the characters raise nigher to one another , and we ’re able to understand what land them together in the first place . Feyre ’s friendships finger like a result of her circumstance , while Celaena ’s start that way and become more designed .
None of Celaena ’s distaff friendship inThrone of Glassstart on the honest terms , but this is why they feel more comforting than any of Feyre ’s bonds inA Court of Thorns & Roses .
Additionally , while Celaena ’s romance with Rowan is a major element of Maas’Throne of Glassseries , it does n’t dwarf her other family relationship . Celaena ’s friends and allies do n’t come from her mate ; she forms her own bond and friendships , with Rowan and his friends supporting her as well . I think this create her female friendly relationship experience much more bona fide than Feyre ’s do inA Court of Thorns & Roses . It ’s a pity , as Maas ' other series has several great distaff characters — they just are n’t utilized to their full potential , specially in telling to Feyre .
