This book just became my favourite of the series. It was so so good. Starting in the Spring Court made me already excited and then the end, oh. my. god. The hype I felt while reading this book, it was incredible. 
So well written! So heartbreaking, and so many twists, but so good! 
I don't have words for it, but I can say i really enjoyed reading all of it. From begin to end. Bat boys, go!

I enjoyed the start but when it got to the middle I just felt like there was a lot of nothing going on and it was very repetitive. The ending is the best part I would say. There is a LOT of good stuff that goes on and that is the only thing that makes it worth reading I think. It's good and I'd recommend the series but SJM needs to know how to shorten as some of it I feel was unnecessary. Also, what is this "vulgar gesture" mentioned throughout??? LIKE GIVE US SOME DETAIL??? She gives detail about everything else except this.
