A sweet little bridge between books 3 and 4. Avid fantasy readers maybe didn’t appreciate this welcome reprieve from battle and death, but I certainly enjoyed every fluff-soaked page, which still held a great deal of substance and heart. I loved being in Velaris (during Winter Solstice) for the entirety of the book, and learning how each character was coping after the war. This novella served as a nice DLC, as it were, for the ACOTAR series, while not taking anything away from the main storylines. Just what every romantasy series needs.

We love a slice of life. That's what's great about this - it's a total break from the intense plot of the rest of the series so far. 

Misses 4 stars for me because the book, while a good & easy read, missed a depth that would have pushed it over the top. Really liked it though!
