I've never been the type of person to reread books, but I'd willingly read these over and over and over again.

chocolatemonkey's review against another edition
Genuinely badly written and boring. Feels like a semi okay fan fiction level of writing but SJM spoon feeds almost everything to the reader to the point where, if it wasn’t for the sex scenes, it would feel like it was written for middle grade readers who haven’t learned how to do critical thought while reading and need the tone/mood to be laid out word for word for them by the author.
I also feel that Feyre is overly powerful for no reason other than because SJM could make her overly powerful. She also tries to disguise it by portraying Feyre as a strong female character but power alone doesn’t make someone strong, their flaws/weaknesses are what make them strong characters, and Feyre seems to have a bit of a “not like other girls” complex where she dislikes her sisters for being more feminine/wanting to get married and puts them down for not being like her. After two and a bit books I can’t really explain what type of person any of the characters are because they all seem to change on a whim without much thought or reason behind it, their past experiences don’t seem to play any role in their character development other than for like two seconds and then never again.
Definitely would not recommend to anyone who wants a adult reading level book where they have to fill in the gaps of what the characters actually mean vs what the characters say. An example of this is
