Edit: the rating of the book is not based on the quality of the book, but on how much I enjoyed reading it. I am VERY aware about the quality of this book/author

This book was phenomenal. From the character arcs to plunging plot twists, this book was nothing less than a roller coaster of emotions. Firstly, I personally enjoyed Feyre’s character development and healing a lot more in this book than the second. Second of all, this is not a romance, primarily(at least in my opinion). This is a political fantasy (a very well-done one too), with wars betrayals, politics of relations between Courts and division between them, everything was full of action and drama. I will say I have predicted quite a lot of the plot, yet it was still very enjoyable and exciting! This was a great build-off from the previous book, and I can’t wait to see how the author evolves the story in the next one!

Big upgrade from the first book. Spice level increased by a good 40%. Enjoyed watching feyre’s progress and how she flourishes. It was nice to be able to relate to her mental health problems but watching her find herself again and find what life had to offer really just inspires hope in me. I’m excited for the next book albeit I don’t believe any other book in the series will live up to the expectations of this book.

Zuerst auf Deutsch:
Dieser Band war deutlich besser als der erste, es gab Spannung und ich habe das Gefühl, das Feyre und auch andere Charaktere eine starke Entwicklung hingelegt haben. Der Schreibstil hat mich in den Bann gezogen, sodass ich geradezu gefesselt war. Nur ein paar kleine Sachen am Anfang haben mich gestört, was die Darstellung von Schönheit angeht. 

Now for my English friends:
This one was far better than the first one because there is finally some more action and Feyre as well as other characters get some really good character development. The writing style was fantastic, it pulled me into the story and I loved the funny bits of it. There were only some minor things in the beginning, about beauty, that bothered me. 
I think Velaris will have a special place in my heart and the Night Court can live there rent free.
