More and more, I'm kinda convinced that Maas decides on the scenes that she wants to write - whether that's exact character interactions or these big set-piece moments - lines them all up, and then weaves as many of them together as she can into a book. And yet, despite some of the sillier quirks of her writing (the invisible lint, the growling, the males...), I do enjoy how gratuitous some of those scenes are. It's over-the-top escapism, bordering on gratuitous wish-fulfilment. I'm not too proud to admit that a lot of the tropes tick a lot of my boxes just so and that's always fun.
Life is short, but also life is terribly and insufferably long, so enjoy whatever media brings you joy, folks.
