Amazing!! I devoured this book and I can’t wait for the next one. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I thoroughly enjoyed following every perspective and am so excited to see where these characters go from here.

There is a lot of improvement in this book compared to the rest of the series so far! Less telling, more showing, less chatting, more action. I was really not prepared for the ending and it was a little sad. There’s a lot of killing, you’d think that there’s a problem with that? Like, supply issues or angry peasants? It’s not really addressed. I’m excited for the next one! (But not excited Rowan isn’t going to be in it also it’s kinda weird he’s low key mated with a 19yo)

Clearly made up animals are severely beaten/tortured, BUT, there is redemption for the animals.

Almost perfect. I just felt like some of the POV’s just made it drag horribly. But overall my favorite book in the series by far

Omg! Did this series get REALLY good!!! Sarah J Maas seems to start her series off simple with minimum characters & world building & their good. But once she’s a book or 2 in, she like let’s loose! Quadruples the amount of characters, makes the world so much bigger, and just lets all the drama and problems unfold. & I have to say it is a brilliant strategy. You don’t necessarily get fully hooked to the story in the beginning, but she’s not throwing a lot of stuff at you at once. If I started this book without having already known some of the characters, I don’t know if I would have been able to follow along and remember who all the players are. But having been brought into the story slowly, I followed it so easy, and I am thankful for that!
This book was incredible! I can’t wait for the rest of the series & to hopefully meet even more amazing characters!
