Honestly, the second time reading this was even more fun than the first. I really picked up on the small kernels of info that SJM spreads throughout the book by re-reading it. This book contains one of my favorite scenes I’ve read in any book so far, and is the only book to make me bawl like a baby. Such a heartfelt ending ♥️

So so so good, really challenged my world building skills at the beginning but once I got a hang of it it went super fast! Of course the last 100 pages had every twist and turn imaginable and I loved every second of it. I thought no other SJM series could match up with ACOTAR for me, but I 100% fell in love with these characters and this world. 1,000,000/10!!

This was a difficult book for me to get into, but once I just gave into the fact that I wouldn’t understand all the info dumping in the beginning, I had a great time. Lots of world building that was thrown at the reader right away. So much that i stopped trying to comprehend. I relied on the fact that SJM is a very repetitive writer, and just pushed through. There’s definitely a lot that I still missed, but that is okay cause SJM usually explains things well when they happen. And I’m reading in the kindle, so I can just search for names of things/characters in the book and go back to when it’s first explained. Hunt is very close to being number one on the book boyfriends list…. Idk what else to say about this book. I loved Bryce, she’s funny and strong asf. Some very millennial humor moments in this book, but also some I chuckled at. I had a great time overall, I could already see myself rereading this series and I haven’t even read the other books.
