A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas
5.0
You’re probably already tired of seeing this book on your feed, you probably never liked the ACOTAR series and you have many many reasons for that.
⠀
But I loved it. I anxiously wait for the arrival of my physical copy to hold it in my arms, to have it on my nightstand every night, to put 675 tabs on it, to re-read when I need comforting.
⠀
This book made me feel so much, so deeply. It made me feel like I belonged to these characters, to this world. And that sucks. Because when the book is over, here I am: locked inside a house, overloaded with uni work and definitely not living an adventure in Prythian.
⠀
Even so, that’s how you know you loved a book. When you wish it never ended, when you wish it was all real, and when what you feel is so strong that you feel like radically changing your life- changing who you are to who you’ve always wanted to be.
⠀
Nesta Archeron’s journey was everything I wanted and more. But I won’t say that this book was perfect.
⠀
The last 1/6 of the book fell a bit flat on me. The ending was rushed, shit was going down and I only had 10 chaps left- I knew it would be rushed. So here’s what I did: I took a break. I stopped reading, and only finished the day after. That helped a lot.
⠀
Am I going to externally hate SJM and all the series fans because of that? Nope.
It’s 2021. Give people a break. Stop overthinking. Let them enjoy what they love.
⠀
Let ME enjoy my love for this book that has just changed my life.
I’mma start working out soon with a Valkyrie training session because of it. IT’S SERIOUS.
“Keep reaching out your hand.” will be something I’ll take with me forever, just like “To the people who look up at the stars and wish.”
The story is with me. The message was transmitted, and I felt all the emotions Sarah wanted me to feel.
I feel that’s all that matters.
Thank you, Sarah. Always love the book hangovers you give me.
p.s- I need an Inner Circle in my life
p.s 2- Those smutty scenes were even better than I expected. Each one so different, each one so intense. I felt they were written just in the right way, never made me cringe.
