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”

some of the dialogue is cringe but overall easily digestible. if i didn’t mentally replace “mate” with soulmate/partner/wife/etc i wouldn’t have been able to finish. idk why but that is a major ick for me. there’s also a LOT of

convenience to excuse behavior, maybe would have liked for more character development and accountability

By far the best of the ACOTAR series, ACOMAF encapsulates what Sarah J Mass does best. A love triangle rife with tension, a heroine who must overcome past traumas, and an attractive yet morally grey male lead.
