A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas

adventurous dark tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

While I enjoyed the world building in the first half, I just really didn’t like or feel a connection to the main characters. The graphic violence was excessive (maybe a matter of taste but I skimmed several passages). 

 I found myself waiting the whole time to finally connect with the story. I never really did! The plot just didn’t track for me, the logic of the treaties and curses felt weak.

Feyre is reckless and fickle and just…unlikeable? I clearly just did not like this book 😅
