Overall enjoyed the book, but I got frustrated towards the end when the main character still wasn’t doing anything. Everything just played out in front of her and she just sat there.

**2023 REREAD**

A Court of Wings and Ruin takes the threads of the previous books and weaves them together into such a good conclusion to Feyre’s story.

Do I love this book? No, not really. But I definitely had a good time with it. ACOTAR does a better job of mixing the politics with the romance, and ACOMAF does a great job with the romance with just a sprinkle of the politics, but this book struggles to balance the two well. The plot is kinda meh, and the romance has already been established so there’s not a lot of time spent on it, which makes complete sense. 

I wish the war plot had been better entwined into all of the books so that it doesn’t feel so out of place. I think that SJM doesn’t fully understand the difference between “putting on a mask” and being a situationally bad person to the people you don’t like. But I also knew all of this going into the book, so it didn’t surprise me.

I know this is her most beloved series, and I really do like it, but it’s just not my favorite.

Anyway, if you go in with the expectation of fae vibes and steam you won’t be disappointed.
