I’ve read everything Sarah J Maas has published (aside from the second in this series) —this is her best book yet. I compare her writing style to that of TOG, and am blown away by how adult and mature this storyline is. I love that this is a mystery, thriller, romance, and political conspiracy book all in one. Her most genuine and loveable characters yet. Everything is so neatly wrapped in the story. Two major plot twists I literally didn’t even see coming. 

** does contain sexually explicit scenes — I would not call this YA.
