I didn’t expect it to be this spicy, considering the past few books having a nice mix of politics and war in it. While this book did have some action, a lot of it was a romance, which I did enjoy a lot.
I always liked Nesta, even though she was such an unlikeable character the past few books, but the character development in this book was so good. She really got her redemption arc, while it also worked to tell us a little more about the other characters. Her determination and attitude made her a really fun character to read about.
I do wish it had a little more of Feyre and Rhys just because I’m so used to their POV with the past few books and I felt there wasn’t much except about the baby. Regardless, I loved Cassian and Nesta’s hate to love dynamic, and was delighted with the depiction of Nesta and her female friendships.
Their friendship was so wholesome and needed to kind of break up how dark parts of this book were. Overall, really liked getting to learn more about Nesta, and I hope the next few books announced lean into Elain and Azriel so we can get to know them more.

I love her journey, & her growth throughout the book, there’s just so much I could say! But basically she is a badass female!
Also, Emerie & Gwyn! I love The trios dynamic! And how they’re there for each other! Let’s go Valkyrie’s!! There are some badass females in this book!!
And Cassian! *dreamy* 🥰
I love his story & getting to hear his side of the journey too! And him & Nesta! Damn! 🔥 #NessianForLife
This whole series has captured my heart!!! I can’t wait for the next book!!! 💜

And yet, there was none of that. What I got was an absolute pornfest with cringy YA girlboss scenes and dialogues. Nesta and Cassian practically lost all the depth and chemistry they had in the previous books where they weren't even the main couple, mind you, and Nesta was given two strangers that became her replacement sisters, and allowed her to shove aside her issues with her actual sisters. Not to mention, every other character from the series was done so dirty and written in an uncharacteristically bad light in hopes of boosting Nesta's likeability, which didn't even fucking work.
And no, don't tell me that because it was in her point of view, it means that we are finally seeing Feyre, Rhysand and the Inner Circle for who they are and that the "rose tinted glasses" that Feyre "wore" in her point of view were gone. I think it's bullshit. A clear excuse to deflect how mischaracterized everyone else was, even Nesta, and how their personalities and dynamics were ruined in favor of furthering her conflict with them and advancing the "plot" of the book in the most lazy half-assed way. I'm so done.

this book sucks. if youre a nesta hater/critic who wanted to see her change and become better, especially towards feyre, you WILL be disappointed. you have been warned.
