A deep dive into a fictional world full of faeries and magic. Enjoyed this re-read of a world which is both loveable and a world to loathe as well. Didn't get the full four stars for me, due to some questionable plot points, and somewhat glossing over of Stockholm Syndrome essentially, but none the less enjoyable.

In het begin las het niet zo vlot. Had graag ook de POV van Tamlin, Lucien of Rhysand gehad. Hun kant van het verhaal zou een interessante spin kunnen geven.

De 3 challenges op het einde zaten vol actie en lazen super vlot.

The start of this book is rough and the main character is almost unbearable.

Part of the ending seemed predictable. With all the build up the author took to understand the plot and the amount of details in the end, I really expected more struggle at times. There were twists I was expecting to make the challenges even more difficult for the main character.

I also think I’m not the kind of person who’s into romantasy/fantasy and that’s okay. I’m going to give the next book a shot since the end of this book did get a bit better. I also don’t like to leave series unfinished and friends have been repeatedly telling me the other books are better.
