Was this fluffy and fun and essentially just a set up to transition into ACOSF…? Yes. 

Did I devour it and kick my heels while reading it anyway. Yes, yes I did.

Out of the series I've liked this one the least. Still a good read but I just didn't love the plot and couldn't find myself to care about most of the characters. The only character I really enjoyed reading about was Elaine, I'm usually more invested in the other characters.

This audiobook is six and a half hours long and I swear at least an hour of it is Feyre angsting over spending money while poor faerie war orphans starve in poor faerie Africa or whatever. Very "do they know it's Christmas".

Tbh, I consider banter to be one of SJM's strongest suits, so this is a pretty strong entry into the canon.

If you have holiday trauma/a strained relationship with your family, this might bring up some stuff. Also, two of the characters are hella depressed.

Review for the Graphic Audio version only.

The background music was so annoying in this one. It was all over the place and was rarely fitting.
