I liked the end after

Feyre is trapped under the mountain

but that’s when you get to it and then you finally get some character development! Otherwise, the other ~200 pages  of the book are a drag to get through.

This book got me on a chokehold plot twist after plot twist. It was a bit slow for me at first but the second half??? Gut wrenching. Absolutely cannot wait to read the next one.

This book was fine. It honestly felt pretty bland as far as the plot and characters went. The ending with Feyre under the mountain was pretty interesting though! I just had a hard time connecting to and rooting for Feyre, she isn’t the most likable character. We’ll see how I like the rest of the series.
