I don’t know if I can even find the words for how amazing this book is. I seriously couldn’t put it down. Enemies to lovers is my favorite trope so obviously I loved that but the suspense was also great. Feyre and Rhysand’s relationship is so beautiful and I don’t think I’ve ever been so excited to continue a series.

It's quite rare that the sequel is so much better than the original. I almost don't understand how the books are written by the same author and honestly this makes me scared for the third book. There's still things that I have an issue with, still cringey scenes (always the heavy romance) and I hate how the author seems to have a desperate need to pair up every single character into a classic, heteronormative, romantic partnership.
The relationship between the two main characters and the story was so much better than the first. The most enjoyable part however was the many friendships, something that I always enjoy more than anything else in books when written well.

Oh my this book really takes off, you know the storyline from ACOTAR but unlike ACOTAR, ACOMAF hits the grown running straight away.
You already know a bit of what the world is like because of the world building at the beginning of the ACOTAR.
I really felt how certain characters feel. The emotions that come through in the writing really pull you in. I was feeling as stressed as Feyre in parts....
Oh wow there are some emotional stresses in this book. I was both shaken and relieved at the end, I can't say more without spoilers but of god please read this book.
So many twists and turns in this book and I am here for them. It's so exciting and I was told book 2 was so much better that book one and it so was. Book one was still great, it was a slow starter but it really kicks in about half wait through, this one though, it's fire from the beginning and just gets better and better.
Downloading book 3 as I write this!!

Loved this book. I was not expecting the twist and was so tempted to go read the blurbs ahead of the next books to figure out if the relationship change was really happening. I liked that it showed the struggle to overcome the hardships from the prior book which I feel other authors tend to sweep under the rug. I am very excited about the next book.

So ... it wasn't that bad and really entertaining. It was not easy for me to enter this universe: I almost never took ACOTAR again because the beginning was a bit slow. But this one ... I really liked it.
I liked Feyre even though she is full of flaws - she is 19, she has the right to be a little lost after what she went through.
Rhys ... Well I fell for it: he is funny, sexy, good with his friends and his people. What more ?
It's a bit difficult to assimilate the new characters but the Velatis team is obviously to be noted. Without forgetting Lucien, whom we do not see enough in this book.
In short, I have the impression that it is a little ashamed to have liked this book. I mainly read adult books, because I prefer to have characters of my age but for once, I was pleasantly surprised to love a book and especially a universe (ok it's not NA but still a little for me).
