my thoughts

I'm going to be e completely honest when writing this. So when I first heard of the book I was a bit nervous I

didn't want it to be another over hyped tiktok book, Where the plot makes no sense and leaves you with a bunch of questions at the end and a second, third or fourth book after to try to answer them, but this book  really bet my expectations. A court of thorns and roses or Acotar is the type of book you think about weeks after and wish you could experience the first read again. This book is ONE OF THE BEST young adult fictions I've read yet! I would definitely put it in my top 5.


The characters are so enjoyable and go amazingly with the plot. I love Feyre who is our main protagonist and such a strong role model and my favourite character in the book.


The biggest thing that struck me whilst reading is how old this book was,This book is nearly ten years old which feels very strange to say, and speaks volumes for Maas’ world building ability seeing as how popular the series still is. However, it also made the novel sociologically interesting as almost a time machine back to views on gender roles in 2015. With monsters and fairies. 

 5 stars for me
