So Sarah J. Maas is one of my favourite authors. I started this book absolutely despising Nesta, and by the end of it I loved her. Not many authors can do that, can make you change your mind about someone. I wish there was more plot— the 750 pages was mostly Nesta’s character development. And Sarah is so good any writing plot! The last 150 pages I was on the edge of my seat. My favorite part. The ending had me almost in tears. However, the first three books had a tolerable about of smut— this book had like 8 sex scenes. Graphic ones. It went from like a 4 to a 10 from the last book to this one. I really could have done without it. That’s what made me take away stars.
