A satisfying albeit lengthy end to the trilogy. I ended up really loving some of the monster characters at the end as well. Other characters remained frustratingly flat.

I loved the start where Feyre’s basically a wolf in sheep’s clothing at the spring court. I sped through that so fast because I really enjoyed it. I’m not a big fan of war though and found the rest of the book a struggle to get through.

As someone who doesn’t really read fantasy, this is such a good intro series for fantasy! The character development + world building are great. I love how SJM writes with little “Easter eggs” tying her books together, on to the next!
