Love a strong independent woman. Especially the fact that everyone falls for her, but she doesnt care for love the way she cares for herself. It was badass. I ve heard rumors about this series having less spice,so that was a bit of a bummer. But i am looking forward to the rest of the series. Maas always writes so beautifully and addictive, couldnt stop reading when i first picked up the book.

Enjoyable, very suprising end. Fast paced through the last pages. I dont think i enjoyed it as much as i could, but only bc i wasnt in the mood for a murderbook (ironic bc of the title). But it was a really good written book, would recommend.

The plot got a bit messy in the middle, and Alex had too many red flags for my liking. But I enjoyed the book in general
