Honestly, less annoying than Fourth Wing.

I think the trick to this book is to avoid inserting yourself. You are just an observer, along for the ride. Don’t get attached to anyone. She’s just some idiot, and stuff happens to her, and that stuff is crazy weird.

Also she definitely shat her pants in front of everyone.

Tamlin is such a bore. The fact that most of the fae-ness is hidden until about 60% of the way through the book made it a slog. I almost dnf-ed this book for a second time but pushed through with the power of liveblogging my frustrations to a friend. Thankfully the last 15% was actually enjoyable ~~largely because tamlin wasnt in it much~~

The only thing thats carrying me forward into the next book is knowing that

tamlin/feyre isn't endgame

It felt like it was written by either a virgin or someone who never was loved. It also felt like the fantasies of a very sexually suppressed person - which made it very sad.

I read this book back when it came out. And I loved it. But I was looking for something simple to fall asleep to, something I've already read that won't keep me awake. Something I wasn't interested in that I knew I liked the first time.

But honestly, this book was boring... It is toxic. It's weird. I think it's really unoriginal and predictable. The writing isnt all that great, it's so simple. And I kinda hated that the second time around.

It's Beauty and the Beast with faeries! I was frustrated with the beginning - Feyre knows so little about the world she lives in and relationship dynamics fell flat for me.

I still don't understand how her and Tamlin fell in love, but I'm glad they finally did so she could be less annoying.

It stays very fairytale themed, but it gets more exciting at least when the plot finally comes together
