I had fun with this book, I really enjoyed reading it! But honestly i feel like the writing is mostly a bit mediocre and the characters kind of surface level. Most of the book feels like the author wasnt really sure what she wanted to do with it, but the latter fourth-to-half feels like she really nailed it down there, and it became very compelling. It could just be my story preferences, but i really do think the latter parts of the book are the best written. Again, i really enjoyed reading this, & I do recommend it.

So... It was definitely entertaining but... It was like a combo of beauty and the beast meets Harry Potter meets Hercules or something like that where someone has to go through trials to prove something... I can see why ppl either just like this one or hate it. It wasn't boring though!

I listened to the graphic audio on Spotify which is the only way I'll go through this series. The graphic audio is incredible. It's a full cast with music and sound effects. The only downside is I have no idea what chapter I'm on. It feels like an old-timey radio show but modern.

Liked this book a lot! Didn’t think it was as slow as people make it out to be. However, also not disappointed that I waited so long to read it, but glad I am now. Feyre is annoying and Tamlin is boring lol. #redemptionforlucien!!!! Ok on to the next!
