I had to know: Will this book change my life? Will I become a SJM rabid fan girl? Will I rides to the ends of the Earth for these books?
It did not, I am not, and I most certainly will not. I can now proceed with my existence in peace 😂 Well, that and the appearance of two of my least favorite plot points/tropes of ALL TIME appearing in the next few books. And that I hate all of the characters.

I am going to be honest, though, I did not have a Shai-Hulud guest appearance on my bingo board.

A Court of Thorns and Roses 
By Sarah J Maas
5⭐️

This book was so much more than I could have ever imagined! It is definitely a 5 star read that every fantasy lover should read! I really think this would even be a great fantasy starter book for those that want to see if they might like fantasy. 

Feyre, a human, finds herself forced from the human lands to the lands of the Fae. She is stubborn, strong, and very capable for a human. However, as she enters the lands of the Fae she meets members of the fae that are unlike anything we could imagine. Their physical characteristics and personalities are so well crafted by the author that you almost forget that you are reading. The story holds you in its grip the entire way through the book! 

I am super excited to start the next book in the series. This is my first book by Sarah J Maas and I can already tell she’ll be one of my favorite authors!

Entertaining. I’m looking forward to the rest of the storyline and adventure. Overall kind of predictable and the main character is a little insufferable but still likable.

I loved this book. From the very beginning it was clear that nothing was quite what you expected it to be. It had endless twists and turns and the action was so full and rounded - as was the world it was placed in.
