I thought this was a much much better book than the first one in the series. It starts out a bit slow but really develops into something amazing. The growth and changes in Feyre as she progresses through this book are incredible.

I listened to this on audiobook and enjoyed it. Ikeda does an excellent job with character voices and of portraying emotion.

This ended up being a very romance heavy fantasy, but the romance is well done and doesn't really derail the story at all so I enjoyed it. I would definitely say this is an adult read (not YA) there are some very explicit sex scenes in here.

I liked the story of the Courts and their battle against the King of Highborne. However, the really engaging part of the story starts when Feyre ends up in the Night Court and unveils their secrets.

The writing style is beautiful and flows well. The descriptions are amazing and really make the story come alive. This story was completely engaging and I found myself listening to the audiobook non-stop and finding excuses to drive around just so I could keep listening to it.

Overall I enjoyed this book a ton more than the first book in this series. The story is well done, the characters are complex and completely engaging, and I enjoyed the magic and world-building as well. I am really looking forward to the next book in this series! I would recommend to adults who enjoy fantasy romance.

HOLY HELL!!! I can't explain how much I loved this book! It's definitely going on the favorites list and Sarah Maas has a new fan for sure! And I'm pretty sure I'm in love with Rhysand! How in the world am I going to wait until May for the next book?!

A Court of Mist and Fury picks up 3 months after emerging victorious from Under the Mountain. . .while the Fae around Prythian feel liberated, the only thing Feyre is feeling is the cold floor beneath her while she's vomiting every nightmare she endured Under the Mountain, and also some she didn't, every night. Tamlin is also having nightmares, but lack of communication and sheer avoidance allow this (happy?) couple to dance around the subject.

Tamlin wastes absolutely no time proposing to Feyre. The two weren't even home a month and Tamlin was on his knees proposing to the Butcher of Innocents and the Savior of the Land. There was also that tricky arrangement with Rhysand. Oh? You forgot about the bargain they made in the first book? Not me. I was on Team Rhysand since book one. And yes- I just reverted to the whole Team Edward/ Team Jacob thing that Twilight brought us.. . .#noshame
