I this book so long ago and stopped it cause I heard there was a love triangle and the thought of that made me so anxious but I decided to retry again and I’m still nervous but I like it it is mad interesting I don’t have a lot to say cause I finished like 60% of the book in September of 2023 which gives me only 40% to recap on🤣 but it’s not bad very adventurous very interesting I can’t wait to see Rhysand and Feyre get together and stay together I’m just nervous on how that’s gonna happen with Tamlin in the picture still😭 overall it has spice scenes but I wouldn’t say it’s overly spicy it has a love triangle from what I’ve heard and am seeing at the moment😭😖I don’t know if you could call it cheating there is a happy ending with no cliffhanger but definitely more to the story and overall i rated it 4 stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The only thing keeping me from giving this a 5 star review is the fact the first 60% is a mirror, almost scene for scene, of Disney's Beauty and the Beast. Unique enough to still be enjoyable, but predictable and I'm glad I knew Sarah's work with "Throne of Glass". I kept thinking, "hang in there, she knows what she's doing" and it took until halfway through the book for it to really show. I hope the next book continues the trend!
