I can’t believe the fucking ending of this book. Sarah J Maas really said “ima just do a crossover, why not?” After making Feyre a baby machine in ACOTAR. Goddamn it. I hope my poor baby Ruhn is okay. 🥺

An amazing plot, with the biggest twist at the end.  Characters are well developed and complex. 
It was truly a wild ride.

I was shocked at the end. 800+ pages in and I didn't know I could be shocked like that.

3.75

A good read probably would have been 4.but I deducted .25 for the amount of gratuitous sex scenes there were in this book I love the world that has been created throughout all of these books I just wish that we didn't focus so much on the smut and I know I'm in the minority for that one 

The other thing is that the driving point in the plot kind of just disappears for the last third of the book like the kids that were all looking for gets found and then we just keep going and it gets really confusing and I don't even know what happened really
