The ending of the book had a lot happening. My brain kinda hurts. But I also couldn’t put it down. Great book kinda long.

Wowee! Feyre was really in her side quest era in this book! From Tams court, to talking to Suri, to the mirror, to the Byraxis, to Elain, to flying, SHES BUSY! 

The first 500 pages made me think this book was gonna be 4 stars, cause it was a smidge slow, but the last 200 really made up for it. Every time my parents tried to converse with me during that time, I had to tell them, “Can’t talk, I’m at war.”

Those pages made me verbally scream “WHAT?!”, “YAY!”, “OH MY GOD!”, “NO!!!!!!” And lastly, “HUH??!”

Twas a very fun rollercoaster! The lore in this world is crazy! 

Overall, I felt like the last book was essentially the love story of two characters and in this book, I felt like it was a different kind of love story. Like it was focused on the love they shared, but also the love that they hold for their people, their family, and their dreams for what their world could become. 

I LIKED IT, DAMMIT! 

FROST AND STARLIGHT IM COMING FOR YOU NEXT!

There's a lot of war in this book. I'm not a huge fan of it, but I was entertained when Feyre

made friends with 'monsters'.

Fearless as ever! 

I feel like we didn't get enough of Rhysand, but maybe I am just being greedy because I want him in EVERY chapter. 

SO MUCH DEATH! I got a bit teary-eyed and had to close the book for a few hours before I could open it up again. So many secrets were revealed too! 

I can't believe I am saying this, but I can't dislike Tamlin anymore, not after what he did

for Rhysand

, that doesn't mean I like him! He said so many hurtful things! 

This may be very unpopular, but I just couldn't stand Feyre's sisters. It was so hard to read when they came up because they were infuriating. Alas, they won me over in the end, but I don't necessarily love them. 

What a great book, not sure what happens after this, seemed like a finale to me but I know there are more books to this series. I can't wait to read them!
