4.5

This book picks up not long after the events of A Court of Thorns and Roses. Feyre and Tamlin are deeply scarred by what happened Under The Mountain and their relationship is suffering too; the portrayable of trauma felt really authentic. 

This is my best friend's favourite series so I went into this book knowing some tidbits of information which made for it really enjoyable when I saw things that I knew were going to happen, happen.

This book is junk food for the soul and is pretty enjoyable from start to finish. I found the description of Velaris when we first see it a little on the lengthy side and felt drawn out of the book but otherwise it is pretty faultless for what it is i.e. a not very diverse fairy romance featuring the chosen one trope.
