The final battle was well written. I loved when Cassian opened his can of whoop-ass on the field and showed just how incredible a fighter he is, despite all his joking around. All in all, the relationships between the major characters are what I loved the most about this series. When Amren sacrifices herself to burn the fleet, when Nesta throws herself on Cassian, when Rhys dies and Feyre freaks out... Man, this book was an emotional whirlwind for like the last 200 pages.
While I found the plot development a bit shaky and didn't really care about the new characters, I still enjoyed this book quite a bit.
I get it. Times change. Hell, I was reading Kushiel's Dart when I was 15. I guess we're just being more honest about it nowadays, which is great! In all, I enjoyed SJMs writing style and the world she built, but the story kind of fizzled for me for logic reasons. Like the way Tamlin sends her away at the last second. Why? If he's got nothing left to lose, why not keep her around the last day and give the romance you literally JUST started with her a chance to be expressed verbally? Also the riddle.... I mean... Duh? I get that Feyre is illiterate, but she's not dumb. I felt like she should have figured that out right off the bat. Still, this was a page-turner for me and I finished it in like a week. |
