4.75

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?
