I'm not even gonna hold anyone, I love SJM's books. They're not great, they're not well written, the world building and magic system are basically non existent, but they're fun and easy to read.
One of the issues that I had with this book that I didn't even notice when I read it on release, is that Maas explains everything, like girl, I'm not dumb, I understand what's happening without you spelling it out to the letter.
Another problem that I had is how can you have a massive war, that they almost lost, but no one dies? Like come on if you're going to put war in yout story everyone can't make it out of the finale alive. Also, this is the secone war that the "Inner Circle" fought and they all made it out alive both times?
Other than that the book is what I expect from a fantasy romance, I enjoy them and i'll keep reading SJM.
