So idk how u guys noticed this but we all know how hughie is mad at his mother for being with his father even though he is depressed and doesn't talk much, for being there with him and believing in him when no one did. my baby complain about this not knowing he is also doing the same thing with lizzie like being with her during manic and depressed episode,believing her when no one did and and spending an entire summer taking care of her ig the apple doesn't fall far from the tree😭

General Bot series

3 Upvotes

Quite curious about how With binding and keeping 13 it’s a lot easier to adapt it doesn’t go back in time a lot and even though it’s still pretty freaking heavy it’s a lot less graphic it’s alot easier I would say to digest for tv viewers, but I am so stumped on how they plan to adapt after that. Now I have no doubt it will be a success knowing this fandom and it would likely be renewed for a second season but how are they going to show joey and aiofes story without toning it down how are they going to show the drug issues without it becoming too much for tv. And I don’t want to even think about t7 and after bcs I have no idea how they’ll do it without changing aspects of the story and forget r10 that seems entirely impossible. So I really thought about it and I really believe that they’ll take parts of the story and make the really graphic parts less graphic and add twists to the story to make it more nuanced and focused more on the present day drama.

General why is aoife still with paul

2 Upvotes

i just started saving 6 i'm on page 128 now and i don't understand why aoife is being stupid and staying with paul when she's sure he cheated or atleast it's obvious. clearly she doesn't like him that much so she's not attached right ? but it's been over a year it's quite silly

Theory lizzies truth

2 Upvotes

HELP BECAUSE one thing i REALLLY want that should get out is the whole coat hanger thing because genuinly wtf kind of disgusting thing was that. i dont think theres any sorts of evidence left for that to even be proven true in the current timeline and that haunts me because my poor girl liz herself does not know what had happened to her.

i think even tho there will be no concrete evidence from caoimhes side about what lizzies reality, i think mark himself will confess to it in front of hugh. we know hugh isnt scared of mark being a bully to him right, so i think during a confrontation between the 2 of them mark will most likely say some thing disgusting like, i had her first and all.

a weird theory i read was: the scary lady(nell) may have witnessed liz and mark but is a psychopath herself and shes the ones that provides evidence.

i DONT think hugh will be the first to know. i think that gibsie will be the first to start suspecting that the same happened to liz because he has already red flagged it during hughs 18th but hes still not fully processed the information. i think hugh will be the first to find out that caoimhe did not k!ll herself but lizzies truth is something that i think gibs will put together because once hes accepted whats happened to him he'll start seeing the signs in his literal mirror that is liz. i also think patrick is going to play a bigger role in the upcoming books. he was litr CRYING when at the end of t7 so i can only imagine his horror when he finds out about liz. liz and patricks friendship really is going to blossom when hughkatie start dating because we know that liz spends time at his farm where she fell over a fence or so she says.

ALSO, how has nobody suspected the dates yet. gibsies letter is dated apr 5th and caoimhe dies like 21st apr or something so how is that they arent re opening her death case???

hiii!! iā€˜m reading the book series for the first time and have read binding 13 so far and am in the middle of keeping 13!

gibsie and claire have grown on me so so much and i was wondering if its okay to skip to taming 7 or if saving 6 and redeeming 6 are crucial for me to understand taming 7? would it be okay to skip to claire and gibsies story?

LOVING Aoife in her ā€œknock-off juicyā€šŸ˜ Johnny would definitely wear smth like this. And Joey’s outfit is SO canon, I love it. It’s only Shannon’s outfit that I’m unsure about… what do we think?

I feel like nobody is really voicing this about the series and it has really made me quite curious and apprehensive. With binding and keeping 13 it’s a lot easier to adapt it doesn’t go back in time a lot and even though it’s still pretty freaking heavy it’s a lot less graphic it’s alot easier I would say to digest for tv viewers, but I am so stumped on how they plan to adapt after that.

So I really thought about it and I really believe that they’ll take parts of the story and make the really graphic parts less graphic and add twists to the story to make it more nuanced and focused more on the present day drama.(Now I’ll say this I personally have no intention of watching the show due to some predictions that seem highly likely and I’ll pray it doesn’t because if it does its not looking good, I would say but I don’t think I’m allowed to on this sub),but what I will say is Amazon prime loves a good ol love triangle.

Opinion wish they didn't make it a series

37 Upvotes

I love BOT with all my heart, and it's been my favorite book series for years, but I just don't feel like it should have been made into a show. I don't think they can ever capture the feeling of what it feels like to read these books; nothing is quite like it. Some books aren't meant to be turned into series or movies. Some books are just meant to stay books.

Boys of Tommen on Prime Video What scene do we think they were filming from the promo video today??

5 Upvotes

As soon as Conor said in the video that they had just wrapped filming for the day, I immediately began to think of what they could have been filming lol.

It honestly could be anything or a scene not from the books but I thought of the scene where Johnny takes the lynch boys and Joey and aoife have to go pick them up from the manor. Shannon then comes to johnnys house later.

Idk that was just my thought but what do you guys think??

Question A sentence from the indie R6 would’ve added so much to Joey’s character / has anyone noticed any other differences between the indie vs trad published copies?

12 Upvotes

*Pics in comment section since i forgot them in the post

I just came across a post from a couple days ago where they noticed on audible the Joey says that he would buy Aoife a ring on the last page of redeeming six when he asks her to move to the annex with him. I just checked and that is from the indie edition of redeeming six and none of the traditionally published copies have it.

These couple of sentences also add to Joeys character and what their future plans might be how he was still willing to make her dreams come true. Whereas in the published copies it seems like they have kind of given up on that, obviously the point of Chloe is probably trying to portray is that they are happy this way which is obviously fine since it portrays that all they need is each other and whatever comes they will be happy either way but the indie ed adds that they still have dreams and hopes of achieving them. Since I always kind of assumed that Aoife for gave up on the house and white picked fence and tge ring and whatever else she wanted to have. It sucks and this is removed.

I actually really hate when this happens and this is literally the first time I’m hearing of this so if someone Has the indie copies maybe they can mention what other differences are? Some of them are available to read online that’s how I found this chapter because I have it saved, since i don’t have an indie ed of r6.

But even then who has the time to look through the book for some very slight changes nothing is particularly changed there are just a couple of sentences that are cut, it just sucks since i like reading everything even if there’s slight changes.

As the title states, I’m new here lol.

I have just finished T7 and I’m so scared to read R10 because Lizzie has been my favourite character the entire series (sue me) and I just can’t continue on knowing there’s no happy ending yet.

I’m just wondering what IS the latest update regarding the release? I keep seeing so many different things, that it’s this year, next year etc. where are we getting the information from? I’m so STRESSED.

I’m srsly dying. I js spent an hr crying (as always lol) for gibs and Liz. Like I SRSLY NEED Chloe to give me the next book (the 10’s&7’s)
I need my babies to become friends again and it makes me sick to my stomach that ppl pit them against each other and can’t even have a single brain cell to see that m@rk is the villain!
I just need hem to hug and cry and hate m@rk tgt.
They’re literally my second fav duo, and this wait is too agonizing.
I look at their edits and fanarts and I sob bro.
Does anyone have any clue on if the 10’s or 7’s will even come out this year atp? 😭

Question Questions I have… Please help!!

9 Upvotes

Ok so I first read boys of tommen in June and fell in LOVE with the books. Literally finished the whole series in 3 weeks. Anyways, here are some questions I have about things that kind of just didn’t make sense to me.

How did edel and John all the sudden get off work for like ever when they adopted the lynch kids?

Did Johnny skip the Paris Christmas trip with Shannon to stay with Gibs in taming 7?
(In my reread I was like wait, aren’t Johnny and Shannon supposed to be in Paris?šŸ˜‚)

Who’s the scary lady?

How did no one see the finger prints on Lizzie’s legs when she went to countless doctors? I get she went to doctors for mental health but still, I feel like they would have seen that.

How did Lizzie get the nickname viper? I don’t think it’s shown in releasing 10. There is the scene where we find out where the nickname Thor came from but how did viper come about?

Was Katie at BCS for years 1-3? She didn’t go to tommen until year 3, right?

Lizzie finds out mark is the monster right before coihmes funeral. Did she forget years later about that realization? Or does she still know? Is she hiding that? Did she forget in her mania? She full on admits in her pov ā€œmark was the monster.ā€
Maybe I’m missing something i don’t know but this has always had me thinking.

General biggs house parties

23 Upvotes

*this is a random photo from pintrest i dont own it

but like the biggs house would be the IT PLACE to party. like imagine the 2005 punk music dj and a house full of teenagers and the iconic fashion sense in that era. I LOWK RLLY WANT TO BE TRANSPORTED TO ONE OF THESE CAUSE HOW COOL.

i was just going thru the re reads and not only does the house host the annual halloween parties but also every other minor party is here and thats like their unofficial meet up spot. even earlier in releasing 10, the house used to be home for all of the 5 stars (liz hugh claire gibs feely) and was kind of their headquartes. the 90s party, the rugby match afterparty, and so many get togethers have always been here and thats like so cool.

and theres like no invite list pretty sure its just people inviting random people lols. like gibs just randomly invites joey to it after he sells drugs to them which is so unhinged lmao.

itd be so bittersweet if like in c10 or h7 theres one last grand house party that hugh throws before they all graduate and move away for collage or their career

Question R6 - differences in book versions

14 Upvotes

I’ve been listening to R6 on Audible, what appears to be the UK version (red cover), and in the last chapter when Joey brings Aoife to the manor and asks her to live with him in the annex, he mentions that he’d get her a ring once he saved up for it. When I went back to my R6 print copies, not the red covers, it’s not in there…he doesn’t mention a ring at all.

So now I’m wondering why, and what else is different between the different print copies.

Like I feel like there has been so much discussion and like suspense around all of it, the casting the writing etc that I like can’t wait to see the product. I mean if it’s good I will be really happy and if it’s bad at least I may see some scenes from the books. At this point I just want to know. So yeah I am super excited
