I had been pushing off starting this series as I am always worried when reading “trendy” books, but I can now say that this book definitely deserves all hype. This author gives you just enough without giving you too much and creates a story where you never know what’s next. I was on the edge of my seat when reading this book and am excited to read the next one! At the end when all of the pieces fall into place and everything you read starts clicking it makes the book more enjoyable.

I am also all for a book when the main theme is love and you don’t realize it till the end.

Overall, so glad I finally decided to pick up the book!

Not bad, but not amazing as BookTok lead me to believe. I had low expectations just because I am wary of BookTok, but I think that allowed me to enjoy it more than I think I would thinking this book was going to be life changing for me. Feyre is somewhat tolerable and Tamlin, I don't get him he's just plain awful. I mean mister Rhysand is better, but not by a lot. Lucien is my MVP for this book.
