Review of A Court of Mist and Fury




I gave this book 5/5 stars!

This book is a masterpiece! I will be thinking about this book for the rest of the month, maybe even longer. It didn't suffer middle book syndrome and it was honestly better than ACOTAR. I had high hopes for this book because the first one left a mark on me, and it exceeded expectations. Even knowing spoilers from social media didn't tamper with my feelings and thoughts while I read the book. 

All great books have an ending, and this ending was... crazy to say the least. It's honestly one of my favorite endings I have ever read. I have never felt so strongly about something like this. It rolled be through so many different emotions at once, and it was so beautifully written. I knew before I had even finished the final two chapters that I needed to order the next book ASAP otherwise I might explode because of what Maas left her readers with at the end of the book. 



- THIS NEXT PARAGRAPH CONTAINS SPOILERS! -


I enjoyed seeing how the characters were dealing with the trauma that occurred near the end of ACOTAR, <spoiler> especially since it created rifts through bonds. </spoiler> It brought out a different side of everyone and it was interesting to see how they responded to each other. So, with that being said, there was definitely character development all throughout the book. 



- SPOILERS ENDED -


I am so, so happy that answers to the questions formed from ACOTAR are revealed in this book. The answers were satisfying in their own way to find out, and they were definitely ones that I was hoping for. Ones I didn't expect, but I am more than happy and content with them.

New friendships are formed and new characters are introduced. They are each lovely in their own way and have personalities that make them relatable. I found myself getting confused over who was who since there were two people with names I thought were similar (and the same thing happened with city names), but I got the hang of it after a while. 

This book is everything I hoped it would be and more. I enjoyed reading every word and there was never a dull moment. Maas' writing is beautiful and I could have read this book day and night without putting it down.  


This review is also on Goodreads and Bookbub!


Synopsis:
“Tell me what you see.”
“A world divided in two.”

Feyre survived Amarantha's clutches to return to the Spring Court-but at a steep cost. Though she now has the powers of the High Fae, her heart remains human, and it can't forget the terrible deeds she performed to save Tamlin's people.
Nor has Feyre forgotten her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court. As Feyre navigates its dark web of politics, passion, and dazzling power, a greater evil looms-and she might be key to stopping it. But only if she can harness her harrowing gifts, heal her fractured soul, and decide how she wishes to shape her future-and the future of a world torn apart.
#1 New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Sarah J. Maas expands Feyre's world beyond even her wildest imagination in this seductive and stunning sequel to A Court of Thorns and Roses.

Review of Heir of Fire

I am giving this book 4.5/5 stars! In this book, we meet multiple new people, more answers are given, and more questions are left unanswered. I think this is the book where things really start to go down and get interesting. It's a turning point, not just for the characters, but for the story as a whole. Even the feel of the book is different. As I was reading, I felt like Chaol and Dorian's point of view was providing a slice of the past books, Manon's point of view was providing a slice of the future and where the series is heading, and Celaena's point of view was providing the transition from past to future. I really like Manon, more than I had anticipated. She brings something good to the table and the story and I can't wait to see how she continues to develop as a character. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that she plays a bigger role in Celaena's story later on! I teared up a few times because OOOHHH MYYYY GOODNESS I am speechless with how the s...

Review of The Queen of Nothing (SPOILER FREE)

This review is the SPOILER FREE version. I am giving this book 5/5 stars! GUYS I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S OVER! I DON'T WANT IT TO END! I really enjoyed reading this book, and I wish there were more books to come. I definitely think that there could be more if Holly Black wanted to make it happen. I live for Jude and Cardan's relationship, and their own personalities. I love these two so much. They are so skillfully crafted and have many layers to their personalities. There is more than just the sad, drunk boy, more than just the strong, power hungry girl. Their relationship grows (in a good or a bad way, you will find out) in this book and it tore me up! Many questions that had been unanswered in the second book are answered in this book. I feel like there are questions I still have that this book brought up, but it's nothing big that will eat at me for all eternity... I like the first half, but I really like the second half of the book. So much happene...

Review of Rise of the Phoenix

I am giving this book 4/5 stars! I received a copy of the book from the author. Thank you again Isajanyan for the copy and writing a great book!!  If you like books with the chosen one, born solely for this event type of books, this is the book for you! This book was creative from the beginning with the brilliant writing style. In some movies, there is a prophecy or story from the past that they will describe and talk about. This book was written like someone was telling the prophecy, and I found that creative because this whole book starts with just that.  There was a lot of information in the beginning, it was a bit overwhelming and may have contributed to me having a hard time getting into it at first. That also may have contributed to me feeling as though some things were being repeated. While that may be the case, as I continued reading it got better. I was starting to get attached to the characters and story. So I highly recommend sticking around and reading it...
