This was a reread for me (it's been so long that I decided to stop reading A Court of Wings and Ruin and go back through these so everything's more fresh in my mind). My original rating was 4.25 stars, but I definitely enjoyed it more the second time around. Not at all a fan of the amount of spice in this series, but this one is quite a bit more tame than the others. (Definitely skippable if you want to go that route.)
If you're a fan of books about the fae, you will love this. Worldbuilding and characters are great. The story from start to finish is captivating. The ending is mind-blowing. Plus, it's a retelling of Beauty and the Beast, but with fae! What could be better?
