well, the writing was worse than expected, the plot as predictable as i remembered the young adult fiction from my early teens. The worst part about this was that none of the characters seemed to have any personality or interests (besides an unspecific unbased interest in *art*), just hollow plot devices. The racy scenes were my only motivation to get through the endless inconsistencies and ramblings of a painfully one dimensional and frankly frustratingly stupid narrator but even those scenes proved to be unrewarding lol.

Spoiler
A Court of Thorns and Roses it a story about a 19-year-old human, Feyre, that is lied to and intimidated into coming to the home of a hot fey man that is several hundred years old. Why is she coming to his home? So she can fall in love with him obviously, but she doesn’t know that bc she’s told she needs to come to the fey land as penance for killing a fey. After being told she doesn’t have to stay at Hot Fey Man #1’s house by Hot Fey Man #1, the book immediately forgets and makes a big deal about her trying to escape. Eventually, she falls in love with Hot Fey Man #1 only to be sent away because Dangerous Things Are Coming. She returns to rescue Hot Fey Man #1 and ends up stuck doing 3 trials or solving a very simple riddle that the answer is obviously love to save him and their buddies. To complete the three trials she teams up with Hot Fey Man #2, who spends their time as allies sexually assaulting and drugging her! But it’s okay because it’s for “her own good”. (Gross!!!) Eventually she solves the riddle after a lot of suffering and basically getting beat to death. Then she’s revived and Hot Fey Man #2 is teased as a future smooch interest.Graphic: Panic attacks/disorders, Drug use, Alcohol, Blood, Suicidal thoughts, Injury/Injury detail, Confinement, Torture, Animal death, Sexual harassment, Sexual violence, Drug abuse, Sexual assault, Violence, Death, Death of parent, and Sexual content
