I have not read a book this fast since high school (and never one this big). The scenes had me on the edge of my seat, feeling every emotion as if I was there myself. This was even better than the first book and the ending had me craving for answers. About to pick up acowar tomorrow because I CANNOT get enough of this series !!

After finishing the first book in the series I did not understand what the hype was all about. I found it to be middling at best. When enough people promised me that the second book was better, I reluctantly decided to give a whirl and wow. It's exponentially better in every way. The world building is incredible, the character development far exceeds anything in first book, and most importantly the chemistry is palpable. Do not be turned off by the first book; it's just something you have to get through in order to get to this gem.

This book had me shaking. Maas’s stories are masterfully written and incredibly intense. The last 20% of the book I was holding it with white knuckles. I had read ACOTAR last summer and it was incredible, but I didn’t feel a pull to start immediately reading ACOMAF. I hadn’t quite understood the hype around the series until now. That being said, it is a very intense read with mature themes.
