A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
4.0
adventurous dark tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The first 2/3 of this book feel like a giant prologue, and is fairly slow-paced. I love Feyre, I don’t mind Lucien, I cannot stand Tamlin. This is a reread for me, and knowing (generally. I haven’t read ACOSF fully yet) where the series goes, I can see foreshadowing and understand some of the motives more, but I still felt frustration when I read certain things. I promise - get through this, the series gets better!!
