A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas

5.0

Second read: I liked this a decent amount more the second time around! I appreciated the action and politics and war and all of the details more this time! There was a lot I hadn’t remembered, so I’m really glad I re-read this! Definitely some on the edge of your seats and emotional moments in this one.

Review:

4.5 Stars - I recommend if you enjoy fantasy, action/adventure, and romance. And if you've read the rest of the series.

Feyre's story continues in the third/final volume of this triology. No spoilers from me.

Again, I have a lot of feelings. Keep in mind... I had been reading for 6... or so days, straight-ish. Obviously I went to work guys... The second book was SO good, that it almost doomed this one. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't bad by any means. But you know how Return of the King is no one's favorite LOTR? This one likely won't be anyone's favorite of Court. Just because last installment means wrapping things up, means battles and strategy, means... all that junk. Which is totally interesting, but not quite as much fun as the middle. Everyone likes The Two Towers better, and you know it. All that being said, this is a great last book to the series, I like how things wrapped up, I had some OMG moments, some teary ones, etc. This book is less steamy than the others, but you know, war. LOL. Overall I HIGHLY recommend this series if you enjoy fantasy!

Initial Thoughts After Reading

4? 4.5? A good conclusion, but as with the last of any series.. not likely to be AS good as the middle.
