Wow, such a different feel from the first book of the series! The spicy scenes got maybe a little too graphic for my taste but that's just personal preference and definitely not a knock on the rest of it. The story definitely kept me coming back for more,
although I am a sucker for a good enemies-to-lovers plot.

Definitely a change of pace from the first book- this is super character driven, the focus is def primarily Feyre’s emotional/mental state & relationships. Not for everyone maybe but I liked it a lot! Also I think the romance was well-developed and didn’t feel forced or rushed <3 for sure the highlight of the book for me along with seeing a fantasy female lead truly grapple with trauma, which I feel like gets glossed over sometimes. Pacing is not quite as tight as the first book with the action towards the end feeling a little sudden/an abrupt tone shift/rushed, but it’s not egregious.  Again, nothing groundbreaking w all the tropes used- I found a lot of moments predictable lol- but still really enjoyed reading the execution!

The start of this book may be difficult to read, as the main character feels broken. Stick with it. It is an incredible book. Unanticipated twists. Dark. Sexy.
