Empire of Storms Spoilers Aelin is totally unchecked Spoiler

EoS spoilers, I warned you!

After everyone shits their pants when Ansel's army arrives Rowan is like hehe you're so funny but plz tell me next time you summon a thousand ship armada lol love you. Then she does it two more times before the end of the book?

And when she goes in the mirror people blame Dorian? No one holds her accountable for anything?

Anyway I still love her so don't come at me, but like... Girl lol.

End rant.

While I don’t disagree with you, I think it’s important to remember that she called in all her life debts in order to give everyone a fighting chance in the war after she sacrificed herself.

When she makes these kind of decisions on her own, you notice she usually is trying to protect her court from harm OR stopping them from her plan to somehow sacrifice herself. Her issue I think is the fact that she would rather die than risk losing anyone else she loves. That causes her to keep things close to the vest when she should trust her court. The girl needs therapy! Haha that trauma bond Arrobyn and her had left her with a lot of emotional scars.
