to be candid, I don’t think there’s anything more beautiful and more powerful in the world than friendship. and in the least cheesy way possible, crescent city drove that point home time and time again.

i put off reading crescent city after a failed attempt last year but i am so grateful I tried again. I absolutely devoured this book, to the point where I almost called out of work so I could stay home and read. there has been such a growth in SJMs ability to build worlds since TOG and her characters will always be incredibly strong willed and badass but not without flaws.

I think Bryce is one of the coolest female protagonists I have ever read about and I envy her confidence. I will not comment on how I feel about other characters to avoid spoilers. But trust and believe this book had me crying like a baby!

Sarah J. Maas is a fantastic author. I thought I would give her latest series a try. I did not finish the book. In fact I didn't even get halfway. I think I picked up this meaty tome at the wrong time for me. From what I did read, the story is intriguing, characters seem to have some depth to them and the setting is an interesting blend of fantasy and real-life. When the time feels right to tackle this book I will try again and redo to my annotation. For now, I'd say anyone who enjoys Sarah J. Maas's works should give it a try.
