This book made me love new characters, but hate old ones. I loved some parts, but certain lines detracted from Nesta's journey and I found myself hung up on those flaws. Certain plot points weren't able to make me suspend my disbelief. I will continue the series, but this book felt like a means to an end. I loved Nesta, but perhaps if some lines or scenes were cut, it would have been a stronger story.

This book has my whole entire heart. As someone who’s endured the struggles and triumphs of depression, anxiety and PTSD for over 10 years now, this book shot me back in time and reminded me how entirely strong I am for enduring. The character development, the inspirational moments and conversations between oneself, friends, family, and lover were all so well done. I will forever have a special place in my heart for this book, and for Nesta Archeron. <3

Honestly, I thought this book would be hard to read for me. I loved Feyre and got quite attached to her. And since this book is from Nesta’s perspective, it is quite different. But I really liked it. If you’ve ever had any mental health issues, you might find your struggles in Nesta’s struggles… I did and it was very validating. Overall the story doesn’t progress that much, it does deal with how a lot of us struggle with an internal invisible darkness.
