Bryce ♥️ second to Aelin for me for Maas’s FMCs. I love how full of confidence and full of herself she can be. 

As others have said, the threads Maas has laid through other books kind of came together here.
Lydia being a descendant of Aelin’s line ?!?! That got me big. Love how some characters got their dues and how it happened.
wish we had more of the princes of Hel - that whole part kind of felt rushed some. Honestly, the whole book felt a little rushed, but the chaos was 🤩

I can’t wait for the follow up of how they handle everything and what comes next. Love most of these characters.
