I laughed, I cried, I cried some more. I'm ashamed that I kept putting it down.

The last 25% of the book pushes this book to a 5. An ending can make or break a book, and this one had an excellent ending. Don’t plan on stopping during the last 200 pages.
I started this book knowing nothing. Some parts were slow, but I liked the story. The only way I can summarize the book without spoilers is to say this an fantasy book about relationships. Various magical beings with thousands of years of their own history and folklore live together in a citymostlynot really peacefully. The people / beings live in their own communities, constantly on edge for the next thing. [Insert plot]

Im reading this after ACOTAR and wanted to check out more of SJM and I really did enjoy this book. It is a long one fore sure, but I loved it. I can't wait to fall down the crescent City rabbit hole! I was legit crying and I felt more emotional during this book than acowar

It took me until probably 150-200 pages in before I started liking this book. If I didn't have a friend telling me how crucial these were to the Maas-verse, I would have stopped reading it. The beginning is really hard to get through because there is a TON of world building and not much else. HOWEVER... Once you get past that... SO F****** GOOD! It has everything you could want in a romantasy book.
