"I lifted my eyes to his again and found stars and darkness waiting. Found home waiting."

I'm not going to do a "real" review for this, because it's not really a book that needs/deserves that. This novella was written as a bridge between the first three books in the ACOTAR series and the ones that are to come. It's giving us, as readers, one last chance to see the world of Prythian, the Night Court, through Rhys and Feyre's eyes. And it's setting up the books to come, giving us chapters from far more perspectives than we have ever gotten before (like Mor, Cassian, a little Nesta, etc.), and giving some background/baseline for upcoming complications (like the security between human and Fae lands now that the wall is gone, unsettled Illyrian camps, encroachment from members of the Hewn City in Velaris - plans from Kier and Eris, the state of old enemies - Tamlin, and whatever the heck is going on with Jurian and the cursed human queen Vassa).

Other than that, it's just a very sweet story about our beloved Night Court family rebuilding after the events at the end of ACOWAR celebrating the Winter Solstice together. All the banter and play that we all love is there, and Feyre and Rhys continue to be everything good in the world. This is not a deep or particularly action-packed novella, but it is everything we were promised and if that's what you go in expecting, you'll enjoy the experience.

Honestly, for me, reading this was like coming home. I love every single one of these characters and though I am excited to see where things go next, I won't lie, I'm totally in mourning after finishing (Nesta and Elain totally do not interest me in the same way that Feyre, Rhys and the others do, so here's to hoping their roles are not too small in the next installments). My heart is super full of bittersweet right now, but I wouldn't trade it for anything (except maybe more Feysand, haha).
