i’m so tired of this series getting shit on. unnecessary hate and for WHAT? this was such a cute little novella and i enjoyed it just like i have the others in the series.
the snowball fight was fucking adorable
the baby is COMING
azriel needs at least one spicy scene i beg
anyways rhys and feyre my parents i adore them.
ngl i’m super nervous for Silver Flames bc….. i hate nesta rn and i’m really hoping that will change but…. anyways

4⭐️ dorian and nehemia are my favorites!!
so glad i read AB first bc i was able to understand it a lot better and tbh it would’ve been a DNF if not. but anyways i loved it and i liked the plot and it really got juicy towards the end. the last chapter was kind of anticlimactic but in a way that i feel like i have to start book the next one now.
i like celeana but i fell in love with Dorian soooooo fast. and Nehemia. don’t care for chaol.

oh my goshhhh the best book in the series so far. i was into it from the very beginning. i definitely cried several times. i didn’t care for celaena before but this book… this book really made me love aelin. fireheart.
i really ADORE dorian. he may be my favorite character rn. but i really like manon and abraxos so far. i will say, when i first met rowan i didn’t like him. but i’ve gotten very attacthed to him very quickly. same with aedion, i disliked him but quickly grew to love him.
and also, i loved celaena and dorian as platonic soulmates, but, but i really love rowan and aelin. almost as much as i love sam and cel. i’m so excited for the next book i’m very anxious.
i still don’t like chaol but he kind of made up for it in the last scenes. now it’s just a neutral hate. still don’t care for him.
but DORIAN?? MY BABY MY SWEETHEART MY ANGEL IM SO SCARED FOR HIM BUT ALSO SO PROUD OF HIM I CANT

chaol is redeemed, he deserves it after all that massive development. i almost despise sjm for giving him such an amazing and well developed healing and redemption arc, because i was content to hate him forever.
yrene is mother. she girlbossed her way though the entire book and i’m very excited to see her reunite with aelin!! (well..) also, why are chaol and yrene so adorable? i could never see chaol with anyone but this pairing seems so balanced and whole- sjm HAD to have been planning this from day 1 with how perfect they are for eachother.
the first half of the book was so slow and i kinda didn’t care but by the end i grew to like chaol, nesryn, snd sartaq. i think sartaq and nesryn are so perfect for each other and they really had me cheesing at some parts. chaol and yrene story was so incredibly beautiful and powerful, icl. like the way they were written was so perfect for their characters and BOTH of their healing. shes everything and he’s just chaol. i also think sartaq is criminally underrated bc nobody talks about him but he’s so

i just wrote a long ass review with in-depth analysis of SO MUCH and watched it all get erased by gr so i will allow that to further propel my rage for this god awful dumpster fire excuse of a book and it’s two annoying main characters.
anyways
Feyre is still the best character, rhysand is still an amazing character too whom i love, i honestly don’t understand the hate for him. i’m not writing out all this shit again but basically, despite my unyielding deep rooted hatred for the atrocity that is nesta, i whole heartedly understand her pain and her trauma and she gains my empathy and understanding. not respect, tho.
nessian sucks, they don’t feel like a relationship with love. he was supposed to help her heal herself but only thought with his dick for 85% of this boring drawn out book and only decided to help her at the end. all they did was fuck

(i actually started the tandem read a month ago but i had to take a break so i technically read this in a week)
wow. just wow. this book and Queen of Shadows… an absolute masterpiece. i know sim’s keyboard was on FIRE. the writing? the plot? the tension? the hints? the buildup? the bringing together several books worth of foundations and seeds that were planted? the final fight? i truly don’t know what to say. just… wow. this wasn’t just amazing but epic.
aelin .. i have no words for her. i love her so much. so so much. and manon? i loved her before but i truly love and adore and admire her now. same for lysandra. and elide. such powerful smart amazing women. i love all 4 but aelin and manon are so special to me. brilliant all around.
listen, rhys is my favorite sjm man.. but DORIAN? lord have mercy that man is a fucking treasure. he’s pookie. idk if i’d rather be him or manon tbh i’m in love with both. and i love their growing relationship too. they seem to balance eachother out in the best way. like they were meant for eachother. and the same for lorcan and elide they are such a beautiful pairing. elide may be small and ‘lame’ but she’s every inch the ruthless and cunning warrior aelin and manon are. and she’s brought so much humanity to stone-cold “i hate everything and everyone” Lorcan. it’s so beautiful to see it all develop.
the 13. i swear i love them so much and i will be furious if anything happens to them. asterin has my heart. her love, her humanity, her soul…. she’s such a once in a lifetime character and i will always cherish her. she’s my babygirl. and abraxos, how is it possible to love him more and more with every appearance? he’s such a strong loyal beast. he reunited the 13

i LOVED this book. i adore Feysand and the found family trope has me in tears. the 2nd was my favorite but this one made me cry and laugh and i really enjoyed it. SJM is a genius. i’m so emotionally attached to these characters it’s not even funny.

4⭐️ loved this!! i read this first to start my ToG journey and it absolutely ripped my heart out. almost 3am and i want to start the next book
i love that we see bits and pieces of celaena change from the first page to the last. it’s like, pre development. i love that even tho she’s an arrogant teenager you can see how big her scarred heart is, and that she would burn the world to the ground for the one person she loves. and i love how multi-dimensional she is and that she feels like a real person with so much personality. i’m very curious about the rest of her story, tho, including her origin that was only hinted at here.
can humans have mates? bc sam and celaena are 100% soulmates. i’m so glad i read the acotar series first bc if i started with this book i would’ve immediately had beef with SJM and never touched another book

5⭐️ wow… dare i say some of SJMs best work?.
My friends are with me, I am not afraid.
Light it up, Danika! Light it up!
Through love, all is possible.
this was so amazing. it’s now one of my favorite sjm books and genuinely one of the best books she’s ever written. this was stunning and breathtaking and raw and passionate and emotional. the development of the plot and the characters was beautifully done, you can tell she took her time to get this story right. the twists were amazing, i’m so glad i guessed some of them correctly (i’m just cool like that
