Wow. Sometimes you finish a book and you're left staring into the distance in disbelief, and this sure was one of those. 

A whole new cast of painfully lovable characters, a new court that makes spring court feel incredibly lacking, and more spice in one chapter than all of the first book (though don't expect anything too spicy - this is a nice beginner spice series so far).

I thought ACOTAR was fine, but ACOMAF blows it out of the park. If you weren't sure about ACOTAR, give this one a chance to win you over.

How come every time I felt like I was nearing the middle of the book or the end I would be surprised by the fact that I was nowhere near it. 

Also the scream I scrumpt when Feyre finds Rhys in the spooky woods by SMELLING HER COOCHIE ON HIM?

I struggled so hard with the middle of this book. The beginning was hard but carried the plot nicely and the end?? I was obsessed. I didn’t think I’d enjoy this series but I made it to the end and I’m so excited to start the third book.

I liked book 2 MUCH more than book 1, there are aspects of this book I wish were less rigid. Also I basically cringe everytime they say “female”
