I finally got round to reading this after all the hype and I’m really glad I did! It’s my first step into adult fantasy and I found it surprisingly enjoyable. It took a while to get to grips with all the different language and terms, and it definitely took me longer to read as I had to pay so much attention to every single bit. Despite this, I did really love it. My only few criticisms would be around some of the character development and focus. I find Feyre a little irritating sometimes and I wish she would stop describing how it would be to paint every single thing! I also wanted more from Tamlin (sorry, not sorry). However, I’ve already started #2 in the series and I’m so excited to see how it goes.
