A review by eadrianschmitz
A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas

Did not finish book. Stopped at 20%.

The writing feels sloppy:

~"he was merciless" but he spared you which is merciful

says her name twice in a convo, on the third time she says ~"so he remembered my name" but he already said it twice? Main character drives me crazy, feels so pathetic how she's

slave to her toxic family and continues to worry and help them even though her father said never return clearly so he can be "taken care of" long term

. Reading this just infuriated me and not in a passionate way, in an annoyed, "why would I waste time on this" way. A shame too because I loved Throne of Glass!
