I can now see why everyone says that they like this book. Reading it made me wish that I had read it earlier and not stopped because I was upset that it wasn't a continuation of Feyre story. 

Nesta was one of those characters that I just didn't like when we were first introduce to her. But she grows do much in this. We come to understand why she did what she did. And why she acted the way that she did. Not only to herself but also to those around her. 

We come to see her make friendships, family and finally the love her life. Nesta is a classic eldest daughter character and throw in fantasy drama and it is even worse than real life. Yes she makes mistakes, yes she is a bitch. But even from the beginning she is aware of who she is and how people might see her. She makes others think that she doesn't care what they think of her, but that couldn't be further from the truth. 

She used what other people might think of her and how they might perceive her as armour to protect herself from being her and used words and her weapon to make them keep thinking of her in that like. 

I love the character growth that we see from her and how she becomes the person that she was always meant to be. 

I cried, laughed and lived through every moment of this book and this series and I cannot wait to see what comes next, especially of its true that SJM is continuing this series.
