A Court of Thorns and Roses
by Sarah J. Maas
adventurous
emotional
mysterious
sad
tense

A mix
Strong character development:
No
Loveable characters:
No
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
the protagonist is incredibly unlikeable. the other characters are poorly fleshed out, and the plot is absurd. 3/4 of the way through this incredibly slow beauty and the beast adaptation, there's suddenly a hunger games plot? completely bizarre shift. We are also supposed to empathize with a character who threatens sexual assault, and to forgive the torture and murder of a bunch of innocents for the "greater good" . the greater good being the protagonist getting to have sex. sex scenes were a bit silly, but still somewhat stirring.
