This book was not what I expected! It was exciting & fast paced. And it surprisingly made me cry. A fun read!!!

This book was disappointing. Usually, I finish because I want to know what happens, but I realized I just didn't care.

It took a bit to get into the book, but I really enjoyed it. It wasn't just the typical love story but a love story to her aunt. A sweet & fast read.

SPOILER  - I struggled with this one. The end of the book & the smut were definitely a 5. But I found being in Nesta's headspace exhausting. I get it, I really do. But it took some of the pleasure away from it for me. Though I do believe Maas was very accurate in the way she wrote Nesta.

I finished this crazy book with questions; however, I loved it! It was so bizarre, but also tragic & beautiful.

I enjoyed the first book, but this was a major disappointment. I really disliked Noah. Quinn was the only bright spot for me. I didn't like the way people were described - I don't need to know everyone's race, body type, hair color, especially with so many characters. It is great when it has something to do with the story, but this didn't. Will not continue the series.

This book was sweet & fluffy, some sadness but a nice little break. Especially after how heavy the last book was. Fun & quick read.

I really enjoyed this book. A lot more political &war type stuff going on. I prefer the personal stuff but it was done well.
