Probably my favourite of the bunch. There's just a lot going on and Rhys just gets hotter. Its positively sinful, well written and engaging. Love it!

If ACOMAF is the book that carries this series, then Chapter 55 is the chapter that carries this book. 

While this is a much better outing than book 1, its actually not by much. The winning components as we all know are the inner circle but the excitement and shocks are all really condensed into that chapter and of course the end. 
This isn’t to say that the book still isnt fun but its not the 5 star i’d originally thought. Rhysand however keeps it at the 4 star mark simply for how excited i was to read him whenever he wasnt on the page. 

Its also funny that this book isnt actually that much smuttier than book one. Theres literally only 2 seggzy scenes of true note so its interesting that id built it up in my head as this major smut fest. 

Feyre continues to be her best entitled self. Im all for strong independent woman but the fact she does this at the expense of other people’s safety really annoys me. Also, that she only has these great powers when in danger but useless pretty much any other time. 
In that same vein, if everyone is soo powerful, they shouldnt need armies etc. it makes their declarations of strength seem stupid.  

As ever, the worldbuilding could do with more work. Velaris is great but what about the 6 other courts? What are they like, how do they exist on a day to day basis. The point of these books might be the romance but it shouldn’t excuse basic development. 

Great ending though, onto the next!
