Continuing my ACOTAR journey with the fourth story (though more of a hopeful interlude than additional installment), a Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J. Maas. This book was a sweet depiction of the winter solstice and preparing for it. I loved getting the perspectives from characters other than Feyre, and seeing the way they all prepared to celebrate the solstice together. This was a very lighthearted read compared to the last three books, and was certainly a nice little break from the plot to see our characters in happier moments after the events of ACOWAR. This being much shorter than the other books, it was certainly a fast read, despite not having much of a driving plot. I liked the way this sets up the next book where we return to the primary story, but doesn’t go overboard in that setup. It really focuses on such a contained moment, but one I am certain will come up again during the course of the next book of the series. I’m looking forward to jumping in to A Court of Silver Flames as soon as possible, even though this doesn’t have the same kind of cliffhanger some of the other books in the series have had.
