There are no chapter illustrations in the US edition of Silverborn…….. 😭😭😭😭😭

jupiter's patron has the same last name as the guy who wrote 'Curiosities, Marvels, Spectacles, Singularities, and Phenomena: An Unabridged History of the Wundrous Acts Spectrum (Vol. 307)', do you think that's why jupiter is so well versed in areas concerning wundersmiths? i think it'd be cool if his patron was part of the original sub-9 academic group and wrote those books, or if he was descended from the person who wrote them. got this from the nevermoor wiki, not original!

Yessssss I have been thinking a lot about that! I even added it to the wiki lol 🕺🏻

One thing I’m not clear about is whether Sudbury the patron was also the one that took Bertram in at age 9. Did he take in Bertram because he thought he might be a Wundersmith? Bertram seemed to know about the connection between “cursed children” and Wundersmith and how he wasn’t one. What was it like when it was clear he wasn’t a Wundersmith at all?

It then makes me think that he totally could have instructed Jupiter about various Wundersmith stuff. I don’t think it was a completely comprehensive education, as in the books I think we see him still learning more and more, but I think it was significant enough. I do often wonder why he’s not more involved with Sub-Nine though… maybe he’s just too busy otherwise?

It all kind of adds some more interesting layers to the dynamic between Bertram and Jupiter and their patron. And Jess DID say in one of the recaps that the authors of the books would become relevant, so….. 👀👀👀

US Nevermoor fans (and international collectors): Books of Wonder is selling SIGNED US copies of Silverborn! 💜

[wundrousarts]

The original idea/an early idea for the series involved Mog as an eccentric aunt so I really really hope in Nevernine we get to see an epilogue or something of older Mog as all of the above <3

ok many things i need to say abt the jessica townsend in conversation but first of all the thing that stuck with me the most:

"Formidable, brave, interesting, intelligent, eccentric, funny, cool."

Those were the words that jessica townsend used to describe adult mog(!!) and all this stuff going on now is what she needs to get her to that point

[wundrousarts]

thinking of making a side blog to organize all the “nevermoor vibes” images I send on discord or save on social media (half of which are doors) except I can’t think of a url because “neverdoor” seems to have been taken by my unknown sworn enemy………

Watching tons of gaming events this weekend and thinking about how absolutely slayful it would be if a Nevermoor video game existed… 😔

[wundrousarts]

I have discovered a Nevermoor rarepair to entertain for once: Meredith Darling/Bertram Crow. Does anyone else see the vision🧍

[wundrousarts]

Rising TIDE….. WinterSEA….. much to think about there……. 🤔🤔🤔

[wundrousarts]

thinking. bertram’s 8 motif with his inventions. 9 wundrous arts. the difference between numbers is lack of wunder bc he’s just a cursed child not a wundersmith…..

[wundrousarts]

There will 1000% be a realm-hopping book where Jack goes missing while looking for his parents. I hope we can see a Jupiter and Mog team up in that one.

There will also 1000% be a book set in the Republic and I neeeeeed to see a Mog and Bertie team up for that one. Bonus points if they run into a certain Chancellor…..

[wundrousarts]

sorry for not posting. many a thoughts about bertram crow.

silverborn spoilers!!! sort of?

do you think Maud Lowry is aware that Squall's training Morrigan? I honestly think he's keeping it a secret from her. if he was being told by Lowry to train her for whatever reason then he wouldn't have given her that choice to not become his apprentice in Hollowpox

Hmmm. I’m honestly not sure!

Maybe she could be aware of it, because she 1. knows they’re both Wundersmiths, and 2. she probably knows about the bid(s), but she either isn’t aware of Squall’s ultimate desire to get rid of/escape from her, or doesn’t believe he/Morrigan are an actual threat to be concerned about (especially thinking about why Squall might be scared of her…..?)

I have not read Hollowpox in a hot second though so I am purely relying on my memory of that scene bc I have read that specific scene tons of times for theories lol

[wundrousarts]

PLSSS DID YOU LIKE SILVERBORN??? THOUGHTS?? (minus spoilers if u can 🥺)

I literally just finished it so I’m very !!!!! right now but it was so interesting and returning to the world of Nevermoor was so wonderful!!!

The book felt very different than the other ones because it’s set mostly in the Silver District, primarily focused on the murder mystery, and takes place over the shortest timeframe so far. There’s an interview Somewhere that I have not transcribed where Jess talks about Neverfour being a “specific type of book” as in a murder mystery and that other books in the series will also be like that/other types of books. So I’m curious to experience that as the series continues.

There are so many things answered and also THE CRAZIEST REVEALS such as one in particular that I haha silly theorized about and actually ended up lowkey mostly right??!?!?!! Was not expecting that in a million years and excited to see where it goes next!!

At the same time that tons of long standing questions are answered, so so SO many new questions popped up!! It felt like this book was getting a lot of things out of the way in order to set up for other things. If Jess has the books sort of like three “acts” in a way, this makes total sense (and makes me excited for Neverfive, because Wundersmith is my favorite book lol).

I feel like I don’t have as many theories right now compared to when I read Hollowpox, but I think again just because the two books are very different. But lots and lots of things I am going crazy over!!

I can’t WAIT!!! for June 26th to see the chapter illustrations. There’s one thing in particular that I can’t wait to see depicted because I could not for the life of me understand how it looked lol

I JUST FINISHED SILVERBORN!!!!!!!!!!

[wundrousarts]

Someone on Reddit is bravely testing out a method to be able to legally buy and read the Australian Silverborn ebook in the US, so for anyone agonizing over the wait, I will report back if it works for them 🫡

[wundrousarts]

Silverborn is out tomorrow! Here are some silly out of context spoilers 😉

[wundrousarts]

why is Ravi your favourite character?

Just for fun tbh LOL

When Hollowpox came out everyone was changing their display names to “____ stan” and I just chose Ravi. I can’t fully remember why but I think just the little we know about him (young academic in a magical field) is similar to other characters I enjoy, such as Gansey from The Raven Cycle or Elliot from In Other Lands.

I also think it’s interesting how Conall and Sofia’s knacks align with the Basement Nerds’s mission, so I hope we get to learn more about Ravi and his knack at some point. At the same time, if he never really appears again, I won’t be surprised lol.
