This book is what I expected Maas to write. There was a more shocking plot and the

slow burn romance

was perfect for my tastes. The political aspect of the book is similar to fourth wing 🙌.

A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas was somehow SO much better than ACOTAR. This book pulled out all the stops and I can definitely tell why this is most people’s favorite book in the series overall. I loved the way the characters developed and how the dynamics shifted. I think I deeply love every character in this series more with every page I turn. Even characters I should hate, I love to hate. I feel like the pacing is fantastic, there is spice and action, there is growth and healing, love and betrayals. This book is packed with so many great moments (and some of the series most famous lines). This is definitely my favorite book in the series so far, and I can’t wait to keep reading and see what else happens because I am completely on the edge of my seat! Make sure you have a copy of A Court of Wings and Ruin ready to crack open immediately after reading the last line of this one. I promise you won’t want to wait.

This book was phenomenal. From the character arcs to plunging plot twists, this book was nothing less than a roller coaster of emotions. Firstly, I personally enjoyed Feyre’s character development and healing a lot more in this book than the second. Second of all, this is not a romance, primarily(at least in my opinion). This is a political fantasy (a very well-done one too), with wars betrayals, politics of relations between Courts and division between them, everything was full of action and drama. I will say I have predicted quite a lot of the plot, yet it was still very enjoyable and exciting! This was a great build-off from the previous book, and I can’t wait to see how the author evolves the story in the next one!

Big upgrade from the first book. Spice level increased by a good 40%. Enjoyed watching feyre’s progress and how she flourishes. It was nice to be able to relate to her mental health problems but watching her find herself again and find what life had to offer really just inspires hope in me. I’m excited for the next book albeit I don’t believe any other book in the series will live up to the expectations of this book.

Zuerst auf Deutsch:
Dieser Band war deutlich besser als der erste, es gab Spannung und ich habe das Gefühl, das Feyre und auch andere Charaktere eine starke Entwicklung hingelegt haben. Der Schreibstil hat mich in den Bann gezogen, sodass ich geradezu gefesselt war. Nur ein paar kleine Sachen am Anfang haben mich gestört, was die Darstellung von Schönheit angeht. 

Now for my English friends:
This one was far better than the first one because there is finally some more action and Feyre as well as other characters get some really good character development. The writing style was fantastic, it pulled me into the story and I loved the funny bits of it. There were only some minor things in the beginning, about beauty, that bothered me. 

I think Velaris will have a special place in my heart and the Night Court can live there rent free.
