So. I Have This Fancy Family Tree Software And I Thought I Might As Well Use It, But It Was Having Technical
So. I have this fancy family tree software and I thought I might as well use it, but it was having technical difficulties (or maybe I was the problem?) so here is this super low-quality Mettlestone family tree. Since it's impossible to read, (I just wanted to have a picture in a post for once, lol) I guess just rely on the image description! rip
Basically, I have figured out as best as I can the order of the Mettlestone siblings so I put them in, added their spouses, and added their kids. Oscar isn't in there but like he's an adopted grandkid so that is a bit of an inaccuracy; I'm not sure where he would go though? It was very fun researching the books to find all the ages, though ultimately there was a mostly-in-age-order list in SLV that filled in all the gaps. Before I found that list, I had known that Isabelle, Carrie, and Franny were the three oldest, that Emma and Patrick were at the end, and that Sophy was also a younger child.
kinda crazy they had 12 kids. that's a lot. In case you are wondering, the reason Bronte only had 10 gifts to give but 11 aunts is because Maya & Lisbeth shared a gift!
Also it's really cute that Jacob and Ildi combined their last names to make Mettlestone. Very wholesome.

“I was ten years old when my parents were killed by pirates. This did not bother me as much as you might think—I hardly knew my parents.”
and this isn’t even in the top 10 funniest lines of the chapter but it’s somehow also one of the best first sentences I’ve ever read?!!!
The Extremely Inconvenient Adventures of Bronte Mettlestone by Jaclyn Moriarty, everyone. Please read it.
minorly sad thoughts
There are 14 covers for 5 books. The editions I own do not match each other T_T
hope is a skill
If I had a nickel for every time the rules of ancient magic are lost to time and become only the realm of the isolated academic despite once being known by everyone, and when the magic returns no one believes it except for the few people who have been chosen by the magic already and the specialized scholars, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't very much, but it's still kinda weird that it happened twice, yeah?
p.s. It’s in two of my favorite books, The Stolen Prince of Cloudburst by Jaclyn Moriarty and The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson.
bronte mettlestone series
—formally known as the Kingdoms and Empires series by Jaclyn Moriarty—is one of my new favorite series and I cannot find any hint of a fandom online. So I guess I’ll just see if I can start it/find it? Hello ppl? Are you out there??
