Ok SJM really upped the ante with the second installment of this series! I found this book to be much more enjoyable than the first. The world building and character development, especially Feyre’s emotional journey, were really well-written. I also loved the reveal of unexpected facets of other characters that were introduced in the first book. SJM does a great job of creating layered characters that are not always as they seem upon first introduction. The book is long, but the story telling and action keep you engaged and hooked the entire time. I’m looking forward to reading the third!

3.0

there was more plot in the last 50 pages of this book than the 600 pages preceding it

every woman in this book has a traumatic backstory that almost always includes rape, sexual assault, torture or attempted murder. and every man in this book has a woman in his life who that happened to

also, fun drinking game: take a shot every time women are called "females", you will DIE

This is the best of all the romance books I have read till date. Not five- I'd give it a million stars and the highest praise for the best fantasy I’ve ever read.
I knew I was going to like it but I had no Idea that after completing it I would want to sell my soul to read it for the first time again. Or perhaps to be transported to this Farie world to live in the night court and never come back.
It was brilliant, mind-blowing, heart-wrecking, action-packed, and EVERYTHING I could ever want from a book.

One of the best aspects of this book is the Feyre-Rhys dynamic. That's not really a spoiler because I'm sure everyone could see it coming. After finishing A Court of Thorns and Roses, I had an inkling that there would be more to their relationship, and I was not wrong. Because, even though I liked Tamlin and Feyre as a couple in ACOTAR, I just didn’t buy that, and by the end when everything seemed to try to make me believe their relationship, I was still not convinced. I could see that Rhysand and Feyre certainly had a sort of chemistry that Feyre and Tamlin never had. The romance in the book is a slow burn and it's soo fkn good. The tension building between Rhys and Feyre was just air to my lungs. I was team Rhysand from the very moment Feyre met him, even before we knew his name. My opinion of him skyrocketed, while my opinion of Tamlin plummeted, with every chapter of ACOMAF I read-

I’m not going to go any further into what this book is about, but as I write this review all this time later I can still feel all the feels I was feeling when I first read it.. ALL OF THEM. This book was so beautiful, I find myself at a loss for words.

This book would be nothing if it weren’t for Maas’ skillful writing. It's like she has laced each and every page of this book with cr@ck, and now I'm so addicted to it. I loved how she has written about each and every character of this book in so depth.
This book sucks you in and doesn’t release you until the very end. Even then, it doesn’t fully let you go, as the it ends with such an amazing cliff hanger.

A Court of Mist and Fury is dark, seductive, brilliant & an absolute masterpiece. Can't recommend it enough- Go Read It.

Worlds better than the first book in the series. Velaris is dreamy, and Rhys and his crew are very lovable.

The book drags a bit here and there but it delivers on drama, banter and spice.
