This is my favorite book. I don't read the entire thing all the time, but I pick it up frequently to revisit some of my favorite scenes. Supposedly, the first book of this series (A Court of Thorns & Roses) is a "Beauty and the Beast" retelling. I kind of agree with this, but I think more strongly that A Court of Mist & Fury becomes a Persephone/Hades retelling of a sort. Forwarning-- there is spicey scenes in this book-- if that is not your thing, but this series is my favorite series. AND SHE NEEDS TO WRITE MORE!!!!
