I think that the heteronormative system that sjm establishes just really got in the way of me enjoying the book. I didn’t really expect it in a fae setting (why establish sexism in a world you made up if you’re not going to engage with it critically??) Also it feels a little weird to me that sjm portrays the fae as a relatively sexually liberated society, yet “whore” carries such weight as an insult. Again, it could be interesting if she engages with it critically but it just seems a little shallow as is. Having read two of the books now, the books are really starting to lack tension/stakes for me. Everything always goes right for Feyre and none of the relationships have any chance to build (there’s potential for more tension in the relationships, but the potential is ultimately wasted). Any “tension” is based on silly miscommunications which honestly made me dislike the characters more. I’m begging sjm to let her characters have flaws!! Like how are they all perfect? It’s boring!

Impressive. I found this book to be much better than book one. We have here a love triangle, Tamlin how will you redeem yourself...things just went downhill so fast. Anywho, I'm not sad. I'll always root for a good antihero lol.  Boy does Rhysand deliver, that entrance woooo and we get to learn more about their bond. Feyre undergoes so much growth mentally and as a character. The world building had me in pieces. I wish I were an artist to draw everything. Sigh. Jumping into book 3 asap.

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 🙌.

I’m so glad I kept reading after the first book, this one is exponentially better. World building is great and the romance was really well done — onto the next one!
