I really enjoyed this book and couldn't put it down.  Not normally a fantasy reader but this kept me engrossed just to see what happens to Fayre and Tamblin

Well-written & engrossing. I haven’t gotten through a book this big this fast in quite awhile. The Graphic Audio audiobooks were also an enjoyable way to get into this story, worth checking out.

If I have to hear about Feyre’s watery bowls again, I will literally throw myself into the ocean…

mrsmonstargh's review against another edition

slow-paced

3.5

Keen to read the next book, but not sure I'd read it again

Annoying point of the plot:

The riddle was easy. Why did it take so long to solve? Ignore the riddle and just do the challenges OR make it s more difficult riddle. It was frustrating knowing that plot point was unresolved, no matter how the story kept continuing via the "trials."

Also not a fan of the Beauty and the Beast style Stockholm syndrome.
