For Whom the Belle Tolls
By Jaysea Lynn
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Book: 43
Favorite quote:
Then she looked at the ruler of Hell and held out her pinkie.
As an avid watcher of the Hell’s Belles series on TikTok, I was thrilled when Jaysea said she was writing a book on the series. I did not keep up closely with the production of the book or series but I did know that I wanted to read it when it came out. Upon release, I requested the audiobook from my library and when it became available on Friday, I dove in. Dearest readers, this ebook is 695 pages long or just over 24 hours in audio and I DEVOURED it in two days. I do not know the last time I was able to take down a book of that size in that time frame but it may have been KOA by Sarah J Maas. I loved the story, I loved the characters, I love the tasteful way that Jaysea handled the different flavors of trauma and abuse. To be honest, when the book opened with “Lily knew the cancer was going to kill her when her car wouldn’t start.”, I was hooked. The world building was great, the relationship building was great, the smut was great. I will be thinking about this book for awhile.

Thoughts on For Whom The Belle Tolls by Jaysea Lynn
Lily standing at the threshold of Heaven with a corpse at her feet, blood on her sword and staring directly at the face of God and demanding he answer for his absence…. Broke something in me? Fixed something in me? Healed me? I feel seen.
Also. Lily stayed in the hallway to shepherd souls into any protected realm available. She stayed at the threshold and slayed the beast. The deities weren’t in universal hallway calling their followers to safety. God hid behind his own walls in heaven. Lily didn’t.

"And the light in those eyes, the quiet joy … They knocked the breath from me. A future—we would have a future together. I would have a future. A life.
His smile faded into something awed, something … reverent, and I reached out to cup his face in my hands—
To find my skin glowing.
Faintly, as if some inner light shone beneath my skin, leaking out into the world. Warm and white light, like the sun—like a star."

Elriels: Gwyn is just a side character.
Gwynriels/Gwyn fans: Ok, Nesta and Elain were side characters in the first book.
Elriels: That's different! They were actually important and served the plot.
Gwynriels/Gwyn fans: If Gwyn wasn't important, she wouldn't have been given so much attention. She literally could have been just brief mentions like some of the other priestesses like Deirdre, Ananke, Roslin, or Lorelei, but she's not. She's a fleshed out character who's given a legitimate personality, character growth, and a backstory. Gwyn served the plot in a huge way. She was a key component of the Valkyrie's rebirth, along with Nesta's healing and survival in the BR.
Elriels: But she stopped training in the end! She went back to hiding in the library and doesn't even go to her supposed "best friends" mating ceremony!
Gwynriels/Gwyn fans: It never says she stopped training. Actually, Nesta says that they will continue their training as Valkyries, and of course, she went back to the library. That's where she lives. Where else do you expect her to go? She said she might go to the mating ceremony, but if she doesn't, it's her choice. She's suffered a great deal of trauma and has only healed from perhaps a fraction of it. If she's not ready to attend a huge party, full people she doesn't know/is not comfortable with, that's fair. Remember how Elain stayed in her room after being made/traumatized and didn't come out until she decided to? It's the same thing.
Elriels: But she can't have her own story! This series is about the ARCHERON sisters!
Gwynriels/Gwyn fans: If it's only about the Archeron sisters, why do you think there's going to be/want a whole book about Lucien and Vassa? Why are fans speculating about Mor getting her own book? If it was JUST about the Archeron sisters, why did ACOFAS have multiple povs of characters that were not Archerons?
Elriels: Azriel doesn't love her! He doesn't even think of her as a friend!
Gwynriels/Gwyn fans: Ok. There's also nothing in the text to suggest that Azriel loves Elain either. The only person he is ever described having any kind of romantic feelings for that go somewhere beyond strictly lust, is Mor. And if he gets his own book/major plot line in someone else's book, that could change. Character development is a thing. And we don't have the full picture of his thoughts on Gwyn. The snippet from the BC says, "he wouldn't call Gwyn a friend, but..." that "but" implies that there's more to his thoughts than what we were given. That "but" doesn't have to be romantic, of course. The full thought could have been, "...but Nesta's friend.", or "...but a trainee with potential." But, whatever the full thought is, it doesn't seem to mean that Azriel has simply written Gwyn off as unimportant.
I think it's silly for anyone to think that if Sarah introduces a character their story will be over within a single book and that's going to be all she wrote. Feyre's main trilogy is at an end but she's still an extremely relevant character to the series overall. Nesta's romantic arc is over but it's clear Sarah still set her character up as having more to do. So why would Gwyn, who hasn't even had a POV, already be "canceled" in Sarah's eyes when she's laid the groundwork for her to have more story to tell? Now does that mean Gwyn will definitely have a grand epic adventure where she's the main FMC of a book? We don't know that just yet but there's nothing that proves she won't either. At this point I don't think Sarah has done anything with Gwyn's character that she hasn't also done for characters like Mor, Eris, Lucien, Helion and the LOA, etc. She's given many of those characters important backstories with unresolved plots and it's going to be up to her to decide who is going to get a standalone book with a POV. Mor was given a lot of buildup and definite hints of a story to come in ACOFAS though the fandom often thinks the most she'll have is a novella of her own so I don't know that we can say with certainty that buildup equals a character getting a book of their own. However, on the flip-side, I think that also shows that Sarah lays the groundwork for many of her characters so she has the option of exploring the stories she wants to tell so anyone she's given that treatment to is still on the table as a possibility (and that includes Gwyn).

Ahem for those of you who know that Sarah gets inspiration from many legends, myths, etc, and for those who don't know about Arthurian legends... I'm just gonna leave this here.

@elucienweekofficial Day 3: ☀️ Exploration ☀️
These eyes are speaking a thousand words. 💛
I think Elain and Lucien will cover a lot of terrain together, but personally, the thing that I’m most excited for in their story is when they finally start to open up and embark of the journey of discovering one another.
There are some really compelling indicators throughout the ACOTAR books that when the two finally come together, their souls will just… fit in this really lovely way.
They’ll be home for one another in a world where they previously felt that they’d lost their homes. I sense a lot of love and peace from the pair 😌
Elain and Lucien’s falling in love will be an incredible, heart-gripping adventure that I cannot wait to take with them! Until then, I have artists like the lovely @ zyulla_ (on insta) to keep me satiated. 🥰
