This book is heavily based on fairy tales (Beauty and the Beast). I didn’t finish this book the first time a read it but this time I was successful. From what I’ve heard from Maas fans this is her worst book, which for the record was a good book. There were some things I thought should be different in the book but still a great read.

Really liked this book. It has the air of a wattpad story that is more polished. Maas sets up a good story with every mystery and story line paying off enough to have the book be fulfilling and leave you wanting more.

I can't wait to read the other books in this series and see where Feyre's and Tamlin's relationship goes especially now that she's High Fae.

I am now a very firm and ardent lover of the Maasverse! I can’t believe I’ve had this book for 9 years and just now read it! I loved every bit of it and cannot wait to continue with these characters and fall even more in love with this world!
