Wow, I’m getting whiplash over here trying to figure out where our allegiances lie. I’m loving all of the Night Court character development, found family is one of my favorite of all the tropes.

The feels being evoked are a little too real in this series. It's not just faeries trucking. Question who's the hero and who, the villain.

I love Feysand!!! some times it felt corny but it was so fun. I loved the Night Court antics, Feyre’s healing and all the high risk adventures. I love Mor and Amren too!! That last bit had me on my TOES. Feyre is just my #1 girl and obviously I’m in love with Rhysand.

Rhys and Feyre forever!!!

I loved this one even more than the first one. I loveeee a slow burn, I loveeee enemies to lovers, and I loveeeeee the "there's only one bed!" trope. Their relationship is ridiculously hot, and I can't wait to read more (and, I suppose, save the kingdom as well, haha! I did enjoy learning more about the Night Court and overall lore/worldbuilding). Very interested to see what Feyre's plan for Tamlin is.

This one blew the first book out of the water! I devoured this book! I laughed and cried and clutched my pearls. Haha. I’m so excited to see what’s next for the characters!! 

There is a heavy theme of abandonment and confinement in this one.
