My heart was not prepared for the emotional rollercoaster that was this book. I never wanted it to be over, but couldn't stop reading it. 
The found family, the love, the respect, the friendship!!! How empowering it is, the way Feyre grows and finds strength in herself!! It seriously took away any complaints I had about the first book. 
The plot was fantastic, a bit predictable at parts, but that didn't take away from it a single bit. The characters are amazing and add so much to the story. So much backstory, so many stories I would love to read and know everything about! 
I will be immediately starting the next one because I cannot wait to see what happens next.

I wrote a longer review, but I decided to just keep it at:

Sarah J Maas seems to have named a minor male character Eris, like the greek goddess of discord. Very middle-schooler-one-babyname.com vibes.

Ultimately enjoyable, better written than the first, but still running on romance novel logic™.

I liked book 2 MUCH more than book 1, there are aspects of this book I wish were less rigid. Also I basically cringe everytime they say “female”

I think that the heteronormative system that sjm establishes just really got in the way of me enjoying the book. I didn’t really expect it in a fae setting (why establish sexism in a world you made up if you’re not going to engage with it critically??) Also it feels a little weird to me that sjm portrays the fae as a relatively sexually liberated society, yet “whore” carries such weight as an insult. Again, it could be interesting if she engages with it critically but it just seems a little shallow as is. Having read two of the books now, the books are really starting to lack tension/stakes for me. Everything always goes right for Feyre and none of the relationships have any chance to build (there’s potential for more tension in the relationships, but the potential is ultimately wasted). Any “tension” is based on silly miscommunications which honestly made me dislike the characters more. I’m begging sjm to let her characters have flaws!! Like how are they all perfect? It’s boring!

Book 2 is much better than the first! And the growth and relationships of selected characters is so enjoyable to witness.
