The ACOTAR series is such an easy read. The problems that are focused on are much more relatable when it comes to mental health and relationships. I think that’s why so many people love it. 

This book starts 3 months after the ending of ACOTAR. The POV is so heavily on Feyre and her journey, that not much is know about what else is going on in the kingdoms. 

The first half of the book is very much about Feyre’s mental health and getting her identity back. It’s slower, for sure. But so many interesting bits of information is given as we look into Rhys and the night courts ways. Once things pick up, they really pick up. 

The characters are really well written and expanded on. The plot is slow because of all the relationship building, but once things get going, they sprint. 

In the end you are on the edge of your seat with a great cliffhanger, NEEDING the next book immediately.

Feel like it’s not a TRUE 5 star because I’m comparing it too much to the first ACOTAR book which was easily 2-3 stars for me. This one was infinitely better. The actual presence of a plot, the 100% more believable

slow-burn/enemies-to-lovers

, the 10x steamier sex… what more can I ask for tbh? Maybe a slightly better pacing and delving a bit deeper into protag’s relationships with characters other than the love interest would be the answers that would make it 5 stars.

4.5

**2023 REREAD**

This book is great. It stands up on a reread so well, and it’s also fun to see the foreshadowing and the little Easter eggs.

The plot is definitely the weakest part of the book until the last hour or so. This is definitely a romance first, high fantasy second. If that’s what you’re looking for, you’ll have a lot of fun!

The relationship progression is definitely fast, but I can see why. The characters in this book all deserve so much room for growth and development, and I’m excited to see it in the rest of my reread.

My original rating stands up. 4.5 stars.

Absolutely in love with this book, still some repetitiveness like the first book but the writing is so improved. The characters are so full and interesting and the overall story is emotional, tense and beautiful
