Simply put - this book is 1000 times better than ACOTAR. As someone who typically doesn't choose fantasy books, I enjoyed A Court of Thorns and Roses but was not blown out of the water as it felt pretty surface level and the characters lacked backstory. However, Maas has entirely made up for what ACOTAR lacked in A Court of Mist and Fury.
I gasped aloud, shook my head, teared up, and went through a roller coaster of emotions during this read. I do not think there was a single point that I felt bored while reading or uninvested in the characters.
The friendships that persisted between the characters of the Night Court's inner circle were so lovely to read and I loved that we learned each one's backstory (but there is definitely still more to learn). They are truly the star of the show throughout this book!
If you are not convinced enough at this point that this book is worth the hype - I read the last 400 pages in about a day and a half. Seriously.
