5 Stars +++. Best book I’ve read all year.
I cried twice and can’t wait for the next book in this series.
The themes of love, friendship, family, and loyalty were front and center in this book. Also heartache and longing. And they were done so good. The author’s writing hit all the emotions so accurately. I felt Bryce’s pain, devastation, and strength. She may be one of my very favorite characters I’ve ever read and I related to her in so many ways. I think anyone who has ever lost someone important to them would relate to Bryce and understand her thoughts, actions, and feelings.
The ending was more than I could have ever wished for. It’s not at all what I thought would happen, how that story would end and it was perfect.
This is a massive book but I didn’t mind. I enjoying living with Bryce, Hunt, and Rhun day in and day out. I was able to really connect with them and it made me feel like I was there.
My only complaint is I wish there was a map, an organization chart with all the characters on it and how they relate to each other, and a glossary of words defining worlds, magical beings, and objects. I struggled to keep the levels of power straight, the worlds straight, the names of the leaders straight and sometimes had to go and reread parts to understand what I was being told. Which is super difficult when you are reading a ebook. (My favorite way to read a book these days.)
But I loved this so much book and can’t wait to continue reading the rest of the series.
**Re-read in anticipation of the second book release- Still the very best book. 5 wonderful, heartbreaking, perfect stars. Gosh I love this book. Can not wait to read the second!**

so… yeah
i’m ngl those first 300-400pages really had me side eyeing this book and so i’m between a 3.5-4 tbh but bc of the last third of the book i chose to be nice and round up. the ending ate down i can’t even lie i literally got gooseflesh (haha i’ve never used that word before but i think it’s so funny like why not just goosebumps haha) and i’m still confused on the world a bit but i heard the second book makes things clearer so we shall see

Tengo sentimientos encontrados con este libro jajajaja pero me gustó bastante, a pesar de que al inicio es difícil de comprender todo un mundo nuevo, pasando la primera, es una adicción. Creo que Sarah J. Maas ha elevado mucho mis expectativas en libros de fantasía, sobre todo en los de ella misma y este no siento que le llegue a los talones a sus mejores libros pero it's going somewhere and i like it. Definitivamente voy a leer el segundo, aunque también pienso que este hubiera logrado ser un muy buen stand alone pero me alegro que no lo fuera, solo como mera curiosidad jajajaja
