I was completely lulled, entranced and captivated by the spell of Prythian that it made for a very unproductive me at work…. (don’t tell my boss) as all I wanted to do was pay attention and listen.
This is NOT a traditional audiobook, you won’t find any “he said”, “she said” in this. Instead the characters will actually just speak, so the flow of dialog actually follows the form of real conversation between people. This is not “word for word” the original text from the story either. Lines would be adapted for the audio so a character who stutters a line would ACTUALLY stutter as they said the line instead of “Feyre” saying “he stuttered as he said”…
BUT don’t let the adaption part scare you….this is just amazing! Totally something to shout about from rooftops and place on billboards!
I cannot wait for part two!!!

*spice increases throughout series
If you’re reading this book/series for the first time, be careful of spoilers! So much of it got ruined for me from reviews and posts! (Including spoilers for future books in reviews of this one.) The second book in this series seems to be most readers’ favorite (including mine!) so if you’re on the fence about continuing the series after this one, do it!
This was the series that sparked my love for fantasy. I had read Harry Potter and loved it, but as an adult, hadn’t read much of it. I’m now reading it for a second time through and picking up so many details I didn’t realize mattered before.
