This story has everything you would ever need and want to look for. One billion starts, this book had given me laughs, tears, shocks, turns. It’s just amazing. The story is well written the characters are developed and beautiful very diverse. The story is unpredictable and that’s a lot coming from me. The overlapping and story overall is just beautiful. The suspense is amazing. I want to say this is my favorite in the series so far and probably my top book of all time now. Highly recommend can’t give it enough stars and words. Love love!

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 truthfully loved this book just as much as mist and fury. They do feel very different reading. This book is action packed and brimmed with love. Tamlin felt like watching a tennis match with how much he was swinging in his decentness. Absolutely love Mor and her story explored more in this book. I was surprised with how heavy there seemed to be focusing on Nesta and Cassian, but I didn’t mind it either. This book completely took me along the ride with emotions. I was vengeful with them, sad with them, scared with them, and unbelievably happy with them.

Ok. Good book. But didn’t wow me the way that ACOMAF did. I loved how it started, I live for the scheming and court drama. And I think the book had great pacing and overall the plot was gripping. But… at the end it just felt a bit shallow. Nothing was really gained or lost.
Everyone lives (miraculously) except the father you don’t really care about. All of these sort of random events conspire for the good guys to come out on top.
The Tamlin subplot was logical and emotionally interesting but wasn’t really explored. My other beef with this book is that
the revelation that Mor is gay
felt forced. Can’t she just..
not love him like he loves her? Why does she have to “prefer” females?
. Don’t get me wrong I love a
gay character to add to my representation roster
but it just felt like something Sarah J Maas came up with and then forced to happen, not something natural for the plot/characters. Overall, an enjoyable book worth reading. However, book 2 felt much more natural and realistic than this one.
