A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas
4.0
adventurous dark emotional tense fast-paced

Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I went into this book expecting a continuation of the swoony, sexy, exciting story in A Court of Mist and Fury. On the exciting front? It totally delivered. Lots of battles and secrets and spying and plot twists! 

On the sexy and swoony bits? Meh. I was bummed that I didn’t get more romance in this book but only because the series has been heavily promoted as “sexy” and “smutty”. This installment in particular is way more Bone Carver than boning, more Lord of the Rings than hot guys with wings. 😏
