Sometimes a book just comes along at the right time and hits the right spot. Probably not a five star for everyone but it definitely is for the person I am right now. Always loved Nesta and Cassian anyway.

The smut is stepped UP in this book. However, I love Nesta’s character arc and the development of friendships and her self acceptance much more than the romance.

Started this book not sure I could cope with Nesta, finished a true Nesta fan. 

This book felt like an epic journey, beautiful stories of found family/female friendship and the power of women. 

Also…Cassian is something else. This book is significantly smuttier than the rest in the series - and that works in its favour!
