Wowee! Feyre was really in her side quest era in this book! From Tams court, to talking to Suri, to the mirror, to the Byraxis, to Elain, to flying, SHES BUSY!
The first 500 pages made me think this book was gonna be 4 stars, cause it was a smidge slow, but the last 200 really made up for it. Every time my parents tried to converse with me during that time, I had to tell them, “Can’t talk, I’m at war.”
Those pages made me verbally scream “WHAT?!”, “YAY!”, “OH MY GOD!”, “NO!!!!!!” And lastly, “HUH??!”
Twas a very fun rollercoaster! The lore in this world is crazy!
Overall, I felt like the last book was essentially the love story of two characters and in this book, I felt like it was a different kind of love story. Like it was focused on the love they shared, but also the love that they hold for their people, their family, and their dreams for what their world could become.
I LIKED IT, DAMMIT!
FROST AND STARLIGHT IM COMING FOR YOU NEXT!
