A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas

3.0

Let me start by saying ACOTAR is one of my favorite series, I even love the first book and the novella. I adore the characters. I love the world, the story, the drama, just everything about it. So I really really wanted to love this book, and I did like some aspects, but really did not like others.

I’m one of those people who was always kinda on the fence about Nesta. I really did enjoy her journey, it felt honest and raw, and pained me to learn why she acted the way she did. I felt for her and all that she was going through. I loved seeing her character develop but I still couldn’t seem to get behind some of the things she did. While I may not be her biggest fan, Nesta definitely grew on me and I have nothing but respect for her. 

Cassian. I loved Cassian from page 1. He wears his heart on his sleeve and cares so much about everyone in spite of that tough warrior exterior. He made everything more fun and heartfelt. 

I enjoyed seeing the inner circle from a different perspective, however some of the plot points and actions seemed completely out of character and left me a bit confused. 

Overall this book is still a great read and made me fall in love with the series more. I love the focus on friendship, elevated spice, and badass female warriors. I have a much better understanding of Nesta and am relieved she turn out to be a better character and would totally be okay if we moved on to a new character (Azriel) or back to Feyre in the next book.
