It would be hours before the girl‘s body was found.
It was late now; so late that it could once again be called early—that surreal, enchanted, twilight hour between the end of a party and the unfurling of a new day.

While I wasn't as captivated by this one as I was the first book, it did pick up in the second half! New characters were introduced that added to the messy, secretive plot line and made it that much more entertaining! It did end on a cliffhanger and I am excited to see how everything ends. Definitely a guilty pleasure series.

This is like Gossip Girl in the future with extra intrigue. Do you have any idea how hard it is not to read the blurb from the next book to see who survives? This is the second book in the series and I immediately want to read the next one.

Book 2 reads even more like a futuristic Gossip Girl, but that's what I like about this series!

The plot was intriguing, & moved at a better pace than the last one. I was glad to see some characters of color get more nuance & dynamic story arcs, but there were still some slightly problematic aspects of representation in the world as a whole. And, as with most books that have six different POVs, I found myself caring only about two, maybe three, of the characters at most. An interesting, though flawed, follow-up. ★★★☆☆.

Okay so we're REALLY commited to the "kill the minority trope" apparently. Why do authors do that? This isn't an old book. Once again, cool world, grey but enjoyable characters but totally ruined by the murder

Interesting way to begin books with a character who dies. Then throughout the entire book, you're trying to find out who will die at the end and who killed them and why.

Truly, futuristic Gossip Girl - rich kids soapy drama. The pace of the book was rather slow.

As I wait for the final book in this trilogy, I can‘t help but think of the Jeffersons theme song...

🎶Now we're up in the big leagues
Gettin' our turn at bat.
As long as we live, it's you and me baby
There ain't nothin wrong with that.
Well we're movin on up,
To the east side.
To a deluxe apartment in the sky.
Movin on up
To the east side.
We finally got a piece of the pie.🎵

The Dazzling Heights is a wonderful sequel to its older sister The Thousandth Floor. Again the chapters switch from character to character. The Dazzling Heights has added a new character, so it makes the story that much more complex. The story continues from where The Thousandth Floor left off, just a few months later. You will have to read it for yourself to discover jist how much more the characters are involved with eachother. #Happyreading

I won‘t lie, I only read this book for the teenage idiocy. The ending was better then the first half but ultimately I was left underwhelmed.

I wish Watt had told Avery off for this comment, it doesn‘t matter if she was right, her comment was very selfish and disappointing.

This one is taking me FOREVER to read, which is sad because I flew through "The Thousandth Floor" within a day. I feel like the characters just aren't going anywhere and they certainly aren't as intriguing as the last book. I find myself bored and my mind is constantly wandering. I'm so disappointed so far because I really enjoyed the first book from the series.

Just as trashy and ridiculous as the first book. These are the literary equivalent of soap operas and are the perfect novels for escapism. It's insanely rich kids drinking, having sex, making drama, and maybe plotting murder. I can't wait until this summer when the final book comes out!

I need help Litsyers 🤔 these two are highly anticipated reads for me. I don't know which to read first! I love the previous book(s) in both series but I've heard ACOWAR was disappointing. Thoughts?! #whatshouldireadnext

swishandflick I haven't read A Court of Wings and Ruin, but I really enjoyed Dazzling Heights. Perfect if you're in the mood for quintessential, addictive high School drama. Kind of a futuristic Gossip Girl, if you will 😄 (edited) 6y
swishandflick And just realized this is the sequel, so you'd already know that. Ha!! I thought it was a great follow up, every bit as fast paced as the first with a fun, new character! 6y

"All that glitters, is NOT gold."

I absolutely love this series.
Ongoing from The Thousandth Floor, this in-the-future New York drama is so good it will keep you turning the page for more.

I really want to finish this book today but I just got home from a friends birthday celebration and I only have 30 minutes for a quick kitty cuddle and read before heading to It‘s a Wonderful Life at our local theatre. So tired.
