- Maas’ writing contained repetitive speech patterns that were said too many times and there was no reason I could find to play up the Beauty and the Beast retelling aspect because the ‘curse’ on its own could have been interesting enough.
- Feyre couldn’t figure out the answer to the riddle, which was odd considering I knew it right away, and its reveal was incredibly anticlimactic.
- (Answered) High fae were shamed if they loved someone of a lower status but they didn’t think to use the single spell it takes to turn someone, even a starved human peasant that is respected less, into high fae?

*[also: problematic gender portrayal, problematic tropes - traditional alpha male behaviour, such as possessiveness and animalistically coded desire, issues of iffy (and in cases utterly absent) consent, reinforced heterosexuality.]* She can do a much better job depicting trauma without sensationalizing it.
