A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
3.5
dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

By the end of it, I can say I want to read book 2! But I personally found Feyre to be incredibly annoying because she's so naive. She's definitely a strong character and did some cool things toward the end of the book, but the entire time I was reading I was also getting frustrated with her. I also found the beginning of the book hard to get through and dry, but since this series has such a strong following I pushed myself to keep going and figure out why. Like I said, I'm invested! And I've heard book 2 is better, but it shouldn't have taken 150+ pages for the plot to actually pick up. The first 20 or so chapters took a lot of will to get through. The rest, I stayed up all night to finish!
