I never was one to buy comic books or even read them, for no particular reason other than I preferred words over art. I work in the receiving room of my local Barnes and Noble and pulled this beauty out of a box. Quite confused, I flipped it open to find a very sexy shaggy and knew right then that I had to have it, only for that reason. I read it in one sitting and I loved it! Definitely an amazing take on a childhood cartoon that I absolutely adored turned more adult-ish and sci-fi. Highly suggest it to anyone who loved scooby-soo as a child.
I never thought I’d ever say this in my life, but the movie was better than the book. Although the book is wonderful as well
{how can I enchant my apartment to be my friend and suggest me good novels and make me good food?}
Definitely not my favorite of Maas’ books. I am all for some romance and a bit of smut... but this book was personally entirely too much. So much that I found myself skipping over a good portion of the book as it was laced with so much detailed smut.
I like the story and the conflict, but it felt too much like background noise to try and keep her previous audience interested while she changed paths from war to romance. After almost a year of conflict brewing, the fighting was so minimal and easily resolved that it almost felt like it shouldn’t have even been there at all.
Most of the story focused on sex and the prevailing danger of what could happen to Feyre if they can’t solve her little problem. And mostly, just a whole bunch of anger from every single character towards Nesta (deservingly so, but I could have done with half of what Maas described as Nesta’s “healing”).
It felt to me like a rather poor attempt at trying to show how trauma effects different people, and what the healing process looks like. A poor take on soldier PTSD that just felt like a bunch of whining, excuses, and self pity that were a little blow out of proportion. As someone who has seen trauma themselves, I know how trauma feels and how it effects a person... but this.. this was just a jerk of a main character who used excuse after excuse to protect herself from the fact that she was just irrationally mean her entire life to everyone around her. Even before her traumas.
