I really enjoyed this story, but some of it felt so predictable that I was questioning whether my predictions were too simple? I will still probably continue the series because there are questions I have that I would like answered moving forward.

Given all the hype, I’m feeling a bit underwhelmed by this one. It didn’t grab me like some other hyped series. Hoping the series gets better.

Great book! I love fantasy stories and this one was perfect. It had just the right amount of romance and humor to balance out the intense story line. Sometimes I could guess what was going to happen next but there were some very good plot twists! 
I really wish the show didn’t get scrapped- I’d kill to see what Tamlin would look like!

The fantasy was absolutely lovely and very well-written! I adore the world building of the fantasy realm in this faerie-themed series, it kept me hooked alongside the tension and action. I wasn't a fan, however, of the romance in this book, and had me doubting if I wanted to continue the series. It felt bland and didn't really do much for me. The high-staked action at the end of the book kept me reading, and I don't regret continuing the series! Just the romance that keeps the rating lower for me.

i don't read much fantasy at all, so i would say i have nothing to compare this novel to, but i honestly had a blast reading this. will keep reading this series just for fun

(tw: mentions of sexual assault) i'm glad i first read it as an adult, because i feel like a lot of its themes wouldn't mean as much to me if i had been younger. while i can acknowledge that fiction is separate from reality, i find the author's depictions of sexual assault to be less than ideal.
how she depicts feyre's experiences with tamlin and rhysand excuse their behaviors if not outright say that feyre wanted and/or deserved the sa.
for this reason, i would strongly advise younger readers to steer clear, or at least go in knowing that maas' depictions are severely detached from actual real lived experiences. none of the romantic/sexual relationships depicted in this book are healthy and/or normal.

yes i read mid in between peak lit it's called a guilty pleasure

feyre was truly just so annoying to me. the writing style and the world building overshadow that so i do think it was a good book but god i hope she gets better throughout the series
