AH! This was such a joy to read, even though it took me longer than normal to finish. The world building, characters and story were so intriguing and I loved the concept of the "bad guy" being a thing more than a person. I also loved the depth to the Wood and as being more than just a evil thing wanting to kill for no purpose. More authors need to take Novik's guidance on this area of storytelling.
The ending was the cherry on top for me. I thought it ended wonderfully and leaves me with a giddy, contentment that my favourite books bring.
Can't recommend this book enough. Though one warning: the format of the book was a little jarring in the beginning (hardly any white space) and if you are expecting a typical YA format style, think again. Sometimes I found I had to reread paragraphs, because I'd miss certain details with how many were pressed closely together.

CRYING.
I read this when I was 13 and was obsessed with it. Now I'v finally found the title and author after all these years *cheers*
Love finding old faves. <3

One word: AMAZING. It's been a few books since I've been so invested in a story and ACOMAF did not disappoint! I love Feyre's layered character growth, Rhys is so swoon-worthy, and the world building/magic system is top notch. The only negative thing I have to say is there were a few sections that dragged and I didn't believe were necessary overall, however it doesn't change that this book is a solid 5 stars!
Now having read almost every SJM book save for The Assassin's Blade, I believe this is Sarah's best work to date. It deserves any rewards it receives and I can only hope that ACOWAR is just as good!

Haunting story for a woman who was given no voice but one of a mad woman in Jane Eyre. A quick read, though the writing structure is a bit difficult to get into, I could feel and see myself in Antoinette's world. I also have a burning hatred for Rochester now. F*ck him. I think Rhys hit the nail on the head with pointing out and diving deep into how terrible of a man he was to his first wife. Jane Eyre attempts for you to feel a level of sympathy for him, which I did have, but now after reading this - no way.
