The problem is in the pacing, for sure. The very beginning was alright with Feyre doing some spying on the spring court but it was definitely more full than it needed to be. I wanted to see more interactions between Tamlin and Feyre during that time (although I did enjoy the tension between Feyre and Ianthe). There is some focus on Talmin throughout the story but I wanted to see more from him.
The romance in this book isn't exciting anymore because Feyre and Rhys are already an established couple so there's no "will they, won't they" tension. This is realistic in actual relationships, so I'm not mad about it, exactly. What I'm mad about is that this book is mostly incredibly boring until the last 20% or so. It's basically all talking about battle plans.
I don't know if I like this series. I am finding myself enjoying the segments with a lot of action, but there are so many slow parts between those that it becomes very tedious. This book should have been half the length.

Truly sad to see this series go. A little Disney towards the end but that’s why we read books, to escape reality. The maturing of the characters and plot, was great and some lingering questions were answered. I came to really like this narrator but it was an adjustment for a bit there. Good read.

So why didn't it shine?
The utter lackluster quality of this took me off guard. And honestly, I think it all comes down to the fact that SJM doesn't know how to write a battle scene. It seemed like everyone just stood there??? Very slow for a war.
Extremely disappointing, but still good.
