This is just the book the series needed after A Court of Wings and Ruin. Through this holiday experience we are able to relax and find comfort in the characters healing process. That is not to say raw emotions aren't shown.
Nesta especially is struggling with her mental health.
I loved the juxtaposition this book showed. No fighting, not much political scheming, just people who love each other trying to piece together their fallen world.

Also bonus points for the multiple perspectives, including everyone!

Good book, but I felt like it was a little bit pointless, as the big moments could be easily included in either the third or fifth book

A sweet little bridge between books 3 and 4. Avid fantasy readers maybe didn’t appreciate this welcome reprieve from battle and death, but I certainly enjoyed every fluff-soaked page, which still held a great deal of substance and heart. I loved being in Velaris (during Winter Solstice) for the entirety of the book, and learning how each character was coping after the war. This novella served as a nice DLC, as it were, for the ACOTAR series, while not taking anything away from the main storylines. Just what every romantasy series needs.

We love a slice of life. That's what's great about this - it's a total break from the intense plot of the rest of the series so far. 

Misses 4 stars for me because the book, while a good & easy read, missed a depth that would have pushed it over the top. Really liked it though!
