I'm recently back to the reading game (thanks booktok/bookstagram!), and of course heard the hype. Got a great deal on the whole ACOTAR series and was super excited to read them.... from dates read, I started in Jan 2024 and finished in OCTOBER. I could not get into this book, it felt off. I didn't care about most of the characters, I wasn't enthralled by the "mystery" that was being proposed. I can't describe it but I was not sucked in immediately like others have. The first 100-200 pages were difficult to keep pushing on, then I got put into a reading slump and I was just not having it. However, my annual Skyrim playthrough and completion-ist at heart needed to read this damn book series. Once I hit halfway+ I read it super quickly, but not in a voracious, I NEED to know what happens way, in a "I really just wanna see what all the hype is about" way. I'm going to guess that book 1 is not the selling point and it's either the whole universe or probably the last one? I've been pretty good at avoiding most spoilers.  I am interested to see how the story progresses and hopefully fall in love with this universe like everyone else!

I loved this book. From the very beginning it was clear that nothing was quite what you expected it to be. It had endless twists and turns and the action was so full and rounded - as was the world it was placed in.
