Amazing! Second favorite in the series now, mist and fury being first. It is more plot and war based than character based which I didn’t think I would love as much as I did. I’m not one for battle scenes, reading them can be tough to get through, but I loved these. They were so descriptive and made me feel like I was watching it through a screen. Didn’t think war would be one of my favorite things about the book but the writing was just perfect. And the character building; even with less character building focus, it was amazing. It was found family mixed with actual blood family and it was beautiful. Amazing

After the negative things I hear about this series including this book I assumed wrong. I actually very much enjoyed this book it’s started off slow but her writing does improve more with each book. The story is very character driven and it’s actually the first book to make me feel emotions for these characters. This series finally got me back into reading ACOMAF was very good I would say that MAF is hard to beat but this book is one of my close favorites so far. Loved it!
