"My bowels went watery" 🤨
Lazily written, unnecessary padding, frustrating character choices, stupid ending.

 I had heard countless times how good this series was, so I jumped at the chance to acquire this series. All I have to say is...it was AMAZING!!! The book from beginning to end had me on the edge of my seat. I never knew what would happen next and before I knew it, I found myself reading another chapter! I did not expect Feyre to become High Fae at the end. My jaw literally dropped. And Rhysand? What a hunk! Amarantha being defeated also brought a smile to my face! Overall, a five out of five for me! I am so excited to continue as I heard that the second book is the best out of all of them. Next, A Court of Mist and Fury!

I finally got around to reading this book.  I liked it, but it didn't capture me like Rebecca Yarros's "Fourth Wing" (Empyrean series) did.

also die ersten 250 seiten dachte ich mir go girl, give us nothing…  das ist schon sehr weit im buch, dafür dass es sich angefühlt hat, als ob Maas den ganzen anfang einfach random ohne plan drauflos geschrieben hätte. ich sah da einfach keinen roten faden oder sinn hinter einigen szenen. es schien mir eher, als wäre der letzte drittel ihre main idea für die geschichte gewesen (vielleicht sogar erst das nächste buch) und den rest hat sie etwas willkürlich drumrum gebaut. 
ohne tiktok hype und süpps approval bin ich mir nicht sicher, ob ich nach 150 seiten weitergelesen hätte…

ABER ja das ende war schon viiiel lebhafter und spannender. ich hatte meinen spaß und es war duechweg easy zu lesen. gute unterhaltung auch für zwischendurch, wenn man noch eine hausarbeit schreiben muss und eigentlich keine zeit hat 🌝.

ich muss aber auch sagen… es war INSANE!! wie oft verschiedene charaktere erbrochen haben. definitiv trigger warnung, mir wurde schon öfter selbst schlecht 🤧.

UND die trials sind auch etwas zu kurz gekommen v.a. im vergleich zum langsamen start, das war echt schade.

ich freu mich auf jeden fall auf das nächste buch und glaube schon fest daran, dass es sich allein dafür gelohnt haben wird, dieses erste buch zu lesen :)

horrifically bad. the characters are nonsensical, the pacing is awful, the romance is laughable, the "sexy" scenes are LAUGHABY BAD. the action scenes are fun. don't read this if you want to engage with anything in a meaningful way. this should've stayed in the drafts for at least three more iterations.
