So obviously, by now, Iâm a fan of this series. The characters have all developed beautifully. The world and the plot are exquisite. There are real, high stakes and obstacles that feel insurmountable. @therealsjmaas writing is still slaying.
So letâs hop right into it, shall we? (Spoilers Ahead)
What I Liked:
đ Feyre and Rhysand have the kind of love you want to read about. That steady, unrelenting, trust, that I-Would-Die-For-You bond. And itâs beautifully written.
đ The King of Hybern remains an incredible villain with an even more incredible end. Shout out to my girl, Elain! Thanks for finally getting it together when it mattered.
đOne of Maasâ best specialties is breathing so much life into her secondary characters that you love them almost as much as the mains. Miriam and Drakon? We had, what? One, two scenes they were actually in? And yet, more please. I love them already.
What I Did Not Like:
đ Everything in this book felt rushed. We started and ended a massive, country-wide war in one book. There are two more in the series and I cannot, for the life of me, see what they could possibly be about. And because it was rushed, I felt that key details, key developments, were not notes that got hit. For example, theyâre all going to be talking about this for centuries, like the last war, but Feyre barely fought. And it lasted, what? Three whole battles before it was done? None of the MCs died and not even any named characters at all. Very little loss for a conflict that had been hyped up to be much more than it was.
đ While Iâm glad Rhys isnât dead, people in this world really need to stop dying just to come right back. Really takes away the seriousness of death.
QOTD: Who are your top 3 faves? For me, itâs:
Rhysand (Obviously)
Nesta
Lucien
