yeah the whole library as a gift? Beauty and the beast for sure (ugh maybe stop saying “growling” too 🤢)Also I wasn’t comfortable with Tamlin being the love interest everything to me seemed forced like:
Spoiler
-several times since she was told by the suriel “Stay with the High Lord. You will be safe.” She thought back on that several times like Uh she can think for herself..
-Even if he brings her emotions out with library/study and gallery and painting stuff… gifts seems like coercion
-"You could have been the one to free him and his power, had you not been so blind to your own heart “Humans," she spat. “I.-I " I lifted my hands, exposing my palms to her. "I didn't know." "You couldn't know," Alis said bitterly, her laugh harsh as she entered the pantry again. "It was part of Tamlin's curse." And you’re telling me that’s not more coercion lol yeahhhh
Overall would have preferred her with Lucian if it had to be one of them but a trope I would love is Feyre and Rhysand?!?! We’ll see now that
Spoiler
she made that bargain with himOnto the next one!!

the book itself is good. The series takes a serious nosedive with the introduction of Rhysand.lindavs22's review against another edition
