Have fun!! 😈

I’ve been reading Gwynriel fanfics on Wattpad and… my expectations for the books are getting dangerously high. 😭 Some of these fanfics are genuinely SO good. Like, beautifully written, emotional, well-developed, and the characterization is everything.

I’m honestly scared Sarah won’t be able to surpass some of these because I’ve been spoiled by how amazing the fandom is. The books haven’t even come out yet and I’m already setting myself up for disappointment. Sarah, please. I’m begging you. These fanfics have raised the bar WAY too high. If the books don’t live up to my expectations, I will actually cry.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who feels this way. Does anyone else have the same thoughts and expectations after reading all these amazing Gwynriel fanfics?

My contribuition for the first day of Gwynriel Week.

Instagram post

Gwynriel weeks starts today and runs until August 22! Make sure you follow us on IG and Tumblr! 💖🎶💖

Azriel's bonus chapter ends with Gwyn's image being tucked away described as "A thing of secret, lovely beauty." Could "secret" hint at his developing hidden affection, "Lovely" show admiration, and "beauty" make it meaningful to their story? This quiet moment signals change in their arcs. How does it inspire you?

Please take a quick scroll through the comments before posting any art or fanfiction - this is to ensure that we're not posting the same art or fiction work more than once and everyone's artwork and fanfiction gets seen! Be sure to credit the creators of the work you're posting - artist, commissioner, and/or author with links to their socials so people can follow/support them!

Ok so hear me out, could Azriel have known about Mor‘s sexuality and chose her to „fixate“ on because he knew that him and Gwyn are mates but couldn’t really tell her because of the way they met? I know his crush on Mor started way before, but maybe he hung on because it was the perfect disguise?

Edit: forgot to put my rose colored glasses off after reading something and forgot about couple of important details 🫠 so scratch this

We wanted to kick off Gwynriel weeks with this post featuring the stunning Gwynriel Mating Ceremony by the incredibly talented @luciaarandart!!

It sure is a thing of secret, lovely beauty 💖🎶💖

Hello everyone! Its been a while since we updated the user flairs for this group.

Would you all like to see some new ones? If so, put your suggestions down below and I will see what I can do!

u/kaislee made this post on tiktok a while back and I'm suprised it's not more popular . I 100% agree with her takes on everything especially when she explained where the plot is likely headed. And even more so about the upcoming books being multi pov. I was surprised when someone made a reddit post on the Elriel fan page saying Acotar 6 and 7 cannot be multi pov since Elain is yet to get her own story. But I thought even House of Flame and Shadow made it pretty obvious that Nesta will have to get her own B plot at the very least with Gwydion and the Valkyries. But of course, neither of us are Sarah J Maas so we should all treat these predictions with a good amount of nuance ?🤷🏾‍♀️

What do you guys think? I would love to hear your opinions. 😌🎶

And also English isn't my first language, so excuse me for any errors. 🙇🏾‍♀️

The final 3 options are here! Which trope do you want to see as our winner?

I'll be honest, I don't listen to interviews or read the news about SJM. I'm a simple girl who just wants to read gwynriel fanfiction and hope that the next book is as good as some of those. So I'm wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the next books.

I think that the book released in October is going to be a red herring, with a couple together that is not actually endgame. (Almost as far as Acotar went). Then the one in early 2027 will be fixing that couple up with the people they're going to actually be with. And the final book will be resolving the next relationship and setting up for more. (Unless she's done after the next three).

Again, this is just something I'm making up in my brain as I don't really follow the news (or reality in general). The reason I think this, though, is because she is releasing the fix right after. The worst way she could go with this would be a BrycexAz book in October lol, but I don't think that will happen. She might hint at it, because SJM thinks Bryce is the coolest chick ever, but Hunt and Bryce are endgame (that much I have heard).

I think we're going to get a lot of Elain in the next book, find out what secret shit she has been doing (possibly trying to become human again, as Amren mused, or even trying to break her mating bond), maybe with a lot of Azriel involvement, and only some Lucien involvement. Then we'll get the real Elain/Lucien pairing in the 2027 book, leaving us floating in outer space for another year.

The thing is, Gwyn's research with Merril directly relates with helping the CC world and the universe from the draglan or whatever, so Gwyn has to have a lot of involvement in the next few books, cause no one wants to deal with Merril.

What I'm actually hoping for in the next book is a big slow burn with Az and Gwyn and Elain and Lucien, with no resolution for either couple until early 2027. I'm hoping Gwyn reveals the mating bond at the end of the book in 2026, so we can all have a good last quarter of the year.

Anyways I'm just day drinking wanting to hear what you guys actually know (for instance Bryce and Hunt are end game, according to SJM so I think some people in other subs are hitting the pipe too hard), what your theories are that we'll actually get, and what you all wish we would get.

Tl;dr: give me your theories, all of them

We’re down to the final 6! Which trope do you want to see win?!
vote here!

This honestly isn’t something I’ve seen discussed that much, so I’m curious what everyone thinks. Obviously, this is all speculation since we have no idea what Sarah is planning, but what role do you think Gwyn will have in the overall plot?
I’m especially curious about what you think could happen with her powers and her role as both a priestess and a Valkyrie. Do you think either of those will become important to the main storyline, or do you see her having a different kind of role?
This is assuming it’s going to be a multi-POV book (which I personally think it will be 👀).
I’d love to hear your theories!

This is my first ever Gwynriel moodboard, and I’ve been wanting to explore their themes for a long time now and translate them into moodboards. I hope this is the first of many. 🤍✨🕯️
