A Court of Thorns and Roses Collector's Edition

A Court of Thorns and Roses | Sarah J. Maas

Since I put ACOTAR on my #bookspin list as both 19 and 20, I‘m using the book before it on my it for my #doublespin this month.

I‘m reading ACOTAR ironically- my bookclub topic is “popular trash”, and this was the first thing that came to mind. Mainly because I‘ve heard of how spicy the series is, no offense to anyone! I do like fantasy, so I expect to like it. But is the hype real? I‘ll let you know. 😁📚

TheAromaofBooks

Bookwormjillk Can‘t wait to hear what you think! I haven‘t read it yet. 3w

StayCurious The series really takes off in book 2 - I wouldn‘t say book 1 is worth the hype but I‘m eager to see what you think 3w

Hooked_on_books I think it‘s hilarious that your book club chose popular trash as a prompt. Sounds like a group with a sense of humor! 3w

Soubhiville @Hooked_on_books it‘s the funniest prompt so far! Coming up we have “I thought the future would be cooler” 😆 3w

Hooked_on_books @Soubhiville Ha! I sense a vibe with that one! 3w

lil1inblue @StayCurious I would have to agree. 3w

mcctrish I would probably choose Colleen Hoover for popular trash but then I‘d be mad at myself 😆😆😆 3w

Soubhiville @mcctrish I‘m guessing someone may choose her too 😆. I thought of all the authors I reshelved a lot when I was volunteering at the library- all the popular thriller writers. But I was hoping for something I would still enjoy 😉. 3w

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Enjoy!! I read the ACOTAR series earlier this year for the first time and found them moderately entertaining but I didn't really get the obsession haha 3w

mcctrish And you will 3w

nanuska_153 I'm on the same sceptical mystery ride than you. Have you reached the spring ritual part? 😂🫠🫣 2d

Soubhiville @nanuska_153 I‘m about 75% through. I‘m liking the second half better than the first, but still not loving it. 2d

nanuska_153 @Soubhiville I'm listening to it, mainly during my runs to not get bored. Yesterday the crazy magic producing orgy happened and the two friends openly worried about him smelling her and getting even hornier than usual had me cackling. Not a fan of the first half cause it's just a repetition of her worrying about dying or acting up because her inferiority complex, but hopefully stuff will start happening soon 2d

This didn‘t quite live up@to the hype, but it was still a good read. I‘m super excited to have the whole series in front of me yet. I loved the interweaving of fairytales. Beauty and the Beast, Vasalisa and the Doll, Bluebeard, Baba Yaga. So good.

RoyallyReading This one definitely felt weak compared to books 2 & 3 for me. I'm on the novella now, which I've seen have mixed reviews. 🙂 1mo

For you ACOTAR fans: my favourite indie ordered a huuuuuuuge copy of the book for Indie Bookstore Day! This isn‘t my favourite Sarah J Maas series, but I‘m still disappointed I missed the chance to see it in person. Hopefully they‘ll keep it on display long enough for me to make it down there once I‘m no longer contagious.

Second time read for me so I can approach the entire series. Still doesn‘t hold a candle to Fourth Wing IMO, but it‘s fine! Not a huge Fae fan, and I find they are so vague in this series that I feel like I‘m an oblivious dunce who tried to sneak into a private event. I hope the rest of the books have more complex character and relationship development.

It's Carnival weekend and we've been on the carnival parade. The time when I finally get to dress up as my favourite fantasy character. I haven't found the bat wings. But I did find spring coloured wings and fairy ears. So, this weekend I'm a fairy from the Spring Court. It matters that I belong to the world of ACOTAR.🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️🧚‍♀️
Carnival is the time to chase away winter and bring in spring.
⬇️⬇️⬇️

maich And Leja chooses a different character every day. Yesterday a fairy, today Wednesday, day before yesterday an Indian (she made her costume at the workshop in the library)... by Tuesday, when the carnival is over, she will have another idea.😆 The doughnut ('krof' in slovenian) is a traditional carnival dessert. Carnival is the time to chase away winter and bring in spring. 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR The end of the book was definitely intense. I‘ve got the hots for Rhys now - I gotta admit. He fought for Feyre and tried to help her - more so than Tamlin I think. But Feyre, after her trauma - is with Tamlin. In love and HFN. Let‘s face it - she is not ok with what happened. This girl is scarred. She‘ll need to heal. ⬇️

StayCurious Will Tamlin help with that or will it be her weeks with Rhys that help her? This is definitely love triangle material - which I normally hate in romance but in this case I‘m here for it. Bring it on! I will post a schedule for Book 2 soon for those who are interested. 6mo

See All 14 Comments

mcctrish The reels on FB were so focussed on Rhys that I read to the end ahead of schedule so I wouldn‘t get anymore spoilers. I was gobsmacked Feyre and Tamlin left together🤯 Rhys‘ explanation made sense to me re: what he did but I‘m not 100% team Tamlin considering how much manipulation went into pulling Feyre‘s strings to get her to break the curse. Rhys manipulated Feyre too it feels more helpful and less emotional #bringonbook2 6mo

StayCurious @mcctrish I was hit with spoilers too, just from looking up fan art for my posts. But that‘s ok, I want to see what happens and how it happens. 6mo

OriginalCyn620 I agree with everything you said, Renee! Feyre is not okay, and there‘s definitely a love triangle brewing. The ending set up book 2 nicely and I can‘t wait to see what happens, especially with Rhysand! 6mo

LiseWorks Did anybody catch that she noticed something about Rhys? I thought, what did she see or notice? And now I'm ready for book 2 6mo

vonnie862 Aye, the spoilers!!! I saw a post on Instagram about the best literary couples and was shocked to find out the couple for this series. I tried so hard not to do any research so I wouldn't spoil it more. 6mo

vonnie862 I highly enjoyed this book! I'm happy that Feyre got her HEA for now, but I'm not a big fan of Tamlin. He was too passive for me. However, I did like how he killed the queen. 6mo

vonnie862 Also, I can't to see what kind of powers Feyre is gonna get. 6mo

CrowCAH It was quite the ending! I was good with Feyre staying with Tamlin and getting their HFN. Definitely the series is set up for more struggles. I also am rooting for Rhysand, I like the bad boy attraction, and he did help her along the way. I do have book 2 on the TBR. 6mo

BarkingMadRead I am not a huge fan of Tamlin at the end, I am #teamRhysand although I don‘t know what that will get me 🤣 6mo

maich @LiseWorks I notice that. What did Rhys saw? We need book 2! @StayCurious you can tag me🙂 I like love triangle. It is found in almost every ya fantasy. I'm more for Rhys than Tamlin. And I blame spoilers for that. Which social media I open here they are🙈 6mo

SarahBookInterrupted @maich yes, I need to know what Rhysand saw too! I‘m definitely in for the next book. 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.40-42: Rhysand finally comes clean - he‘s been helping Feyre - which she realizes had been true all along. She didn‘t want to see him as decent (and why would she, he‘s kind of a jerk) but maybe he has people and things to protect as well. Everyone in Prythian is under a terrible weight and they need the witch queen dead. ⬇️

StayCurious Can Feyre survive her 3rd task, release Tamlin from the curse, set his powers free, and watch as Amanrantha is destroyed? Even if all that were to miraculously happen, will Feyre and Tamlin get their HEA or will Rhysand stand in the way? 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.37-39: Desperate and dying, Feyre makes a deal with the devil. What are Rhysand‘s true motives for making this bargain? - not just to torment Tamlin. What is he really up to? I‘m disappointed that Tamlin seems to have just given up. He needs to do something - I don‘t like how submissive he‘s become. As we head intro this next task, will Feyre survive? Or need Rhys‘ costly help once more?

mcctrish The whole Tamlin storyline has been hard to understand and accept ( besides his lovely strong, tanned forearms 😆😆) 6mo

Or die trying. ⬇️

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Testing the waters: if I were to host a buddy read for book 2 after we finish this one, separate from our regular #LittensLoveRomance read, would there be any interest in that? Let me know 🤷‍♀️ Ch.28,29,30: Feyre is returned home - but it‘s a much different home than she remembers. Tamlin‘s generosity has elevated her family so that they are better off than they were 8 years before. ⬇️

StayCurious But not everyone is fooled: Nesta sees through the glamour. And she actually went after Feyre. deep down Feyre knows she can‘t stay there, not when her High Lord could be in danger. If Nesta was brave enough to go to Prythian, so is Feyre. 6mo

I had heard so many things about this series so was keen to read the first book as part of #litsylovesromance.
Magical lands, violence, adventure, beasts, faerie‘s - there was so much going on and that doesn‘t include the romance. The relationship between Tamlin and Feyre was swoon worthy .
A seductive, adventure that the author detailed perfectly. I can‘t wait to read the next one.

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.25,26,27: A lot happened in these chapters but mainly we‘ll focus on Rhysand, the dark High Lord linked to the *she* we‘ve been afraid of. Yeah, he seems like a jerk but he knows what‘s going on. Tamlin is still keeping things from Feyre - to protect her or himself and his realm? Can he really send her home? Will she leave her newfound home now that she finally feels comfortable there? She might not have a choice. ⬇️

StayCurious It seems as though things are crumbling around Tamlin and the spring court and Feyre may be his weakness and his downfall. Unless she‘s like the key to everything. So many unanswered questions! 6mo

It‘s hard to believe that he would send her back to the awful life she had before. But yet, he wants to keep her safe…I still feel like Feyre is the key to something. IDK how or what, though. And BTW, the graphic is so on point! 👍🏻 6mo

mcctrish Didn‘t the Suriel say Feyre needs to stay close to Tamlin? I don‘t think going home is safe but I wasn‘t expecting Tam and Lucien to get down on their knees either 🤷🏻‍♀️ 6mo

vonnie862 @mcctrish same! The Suriel did say to stay with Tamlin. I was shocked that both of them got on their knees. 6mo

CrowCAH I agree @mcctrish @vonnie862 that was shocking that they‘d stoop so low to protect her. I knew this was a BatB type story, but I was still torn when he came to the decision to allow her to go. He finally accepted her and she him and now they‘ll be separated. 6mo

maich @mcctrish and @CrowCAH I agree with you two. So many happend in these chapters and so many questions. Tamlin still don't want her to tell everything even they come close. Not sure what to think...🤔 6mo

Cupcake12 I was so involved in the story - I finished it! 6mo

mcctrish @Cupcake12 I think I‘m not far behind you in just finishing it off 6mo

Bookbuyingaddict Hello 👋 id like to join in for March please 🙏 if I may ? 😀😍🥰😘x 6mo

TheAromaofBooks So are we reading book 2 next month...?? 😂 6mo

StayCurious @mcctrish @vonnie862 Did the Suriel say Tamlin or did it say the High Lord? There are 7 High Lords…I wonder if the Suriel was being cryptic about someone else 6mo

StayCurious @Bookbuyingaddict absolutely! I‘ll add you to my tag list for the vote 6mo

mcctrish Oooo good point and makes more sense now that a bunch of reels have popped up in my fb feed thanks to spyware on my phone knowing I‘m reading ACOTAR 🤣🤣 6mo

StayCurious @mcctrish it‘s hard to avoid spoilers! 6mo

Bookbuyingaddict @StayCurious thank you so much 🙏😍📚📕🥰 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.22,23,24: Feyre is definitely liking and trusting Tamlin more - enough to show him her paintings, and to dress to impress. And he shows her what his world is really like. I feel better knowing that his court is not completely abandoned as it appeared to be. There are many more fairies there than Feyre could see. ⬇️

StayCurious We hear about The Night Court - there‘s no love lost between Tamlin and the Night Court‘s High Lord it seems. What a strange and terrible prank? 6mo

OriginalCyn620 I‘m glad the walls are slowly coming down with these two, but I wonder how much more there is that Feyre doesn‘t know yet. And it‘s getting increasingly harder for me to stay on schedule…I want to read ahead so badly! 😂 6mo

mcctrish I have no idea how Feyre is going to make things better with speared and dewinged fairies being dropped off but time will tell 6mo

vonnie862 I can just imagine sneaking around the castle thinking that there was no one around 😅 6mo

CrowCAH @vonnie862 I agree. And just like her foolish for thinking that no one saw her! 6mo

maich @vonnie862 I agree. So many fairies looking and spying on you but you can't see them. A little scary. The story is getting more and more suspense it's is hard to not read next chapters. 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.19,20,21: We learn more about the Faerie world and about the concept of Mates. Could Tamlin and Feyre be destined or is it not in the cards? But things are starting to go well between Feyre and Tamlin, that is until Feyre goes against his orders and sneaks out to the Fire Njght. Feyre and her curiosity! She lands in such dangerous situations. ⬇️

StayCurious If that handsome stranger hadn‘t been there…and who is he and where is he from? I‘m sure we haven‘t seen the end of him. And then Feyre has that run in with Tamlin after Lucien tells her what the Rite is. I got an ick feeling that he was with someone else that night and then comes to Feyre with hopes of what? I dunno. My gut isn‘t rooting for these two as much as it was. Even if Feyre is drawn to him. 6mo

mcctrish Tam had to take someone else and was pissed off. He did warn her but Lucien obviously thinks Feyre should be given more information that she gets. 6mo

See All 14 Comments

OriginalCyn620 Maybe if Tamlin gave all the info when Feyre asks a question, then she wouldn‘t need to sneak around and find out for herself. 😂 I‘m still rooting for them, though! 6mo

mcctrish @OriginalCyn620 or she‘d realize what she‘d be getting herself into if she went out and me too 6mo

StayCurious @OriginalCyn620 you‘re totally right. I‘m not a brave person - I‘d be like “ok stay in the room! No problem!” 6mo

LiseWorks I was so disappointed in Tamlin for not explaining why she should stay in her room. But those drums. She couldn't resist! After reading other books about Fairies I knew the drums would get her in trouble. And the most beautiful man she ever saw? Why heart went oh no! 6mo

LiseWorks I meant my heart, stupid autocorrect 6mo

CrowCAH Going to Fire Night was a stupid move. He gave a warning on purpose. But curiosity gets the better of us all, right? At least she knows more now. 6mo

Cupcake12 So many unanswered questions! 6mo

vonnie862 @CrowCAH I'm with you. It was a stupid move. 6mo

vonnie862 Now that stranger...who is he? 6mo

maich @LiseWorks the drums. I thought the same. I'll did the same as Ferye. We wanted to see what was going on. Lucien finally started talking. But we need more information. And that stranger. Who is he? Will probably meet him again. And that hot scene with Tamlin. So many things happen in these chapters. 6mo

maich *I would do the same as Feyre. Sorry english is my second language🙈 6mo

pick

I picked up this book for a Litsy read along and it was so good I couldn‘t just read 2 chapters a day. I now know why Romantasy is such a popular new genre. It‘s romance with a thrilling, action packed B-storyline. This story felt like a beauty and the beast spin off, which made me enjoy it more. It also had a little Psyche trials of proving her love of Eros to Aphrodite spin too. I love that particular Greek myth. So, all in all I‘d recommend it!

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.16,17,18: Feyre is starting to care for and understand more about these faeries. They aren‘t all the vicious creatures she was warned about - although there do seem to be a lot of dangers in The Spring Court. And who is this terrible lady faerie we keep hearing whispers about? Tamlin seems to be trying more with Feyre. ⬇️

StayCurious He offers to help her write, he reassures her about her family‘s welfare, he brings her to a starlight glen cough cough aka Twilight Meadow) - for Feyre this is akin to Beast giving Belle a library. The man is working hard. But what does he really want from her? 6mo

LiseWorks @mcctrish lol, she is the savior who will save them all. She just has to come to believe in herself. 6mo

mcctrish @LiseWorks nobody knows about the saviour part yet so for now it‘s sex 🤣🤣 6mo

OriginalCyn620 Tamlin really is trying! I‘m starting to really like him and I‘m glad he and Feyre are opening up to each other. And BTW, I love that fan art pic! ❤️ 6mo

CrowCAH I do appreciate how he‘s trying to see her as a person and not just the person to save the realm. 6mo

maich I love fan art pic. Is he falling for her? This talk, art supplies and swimming... 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch: 13,14,15: Oy, Feyre does a good job of getting into trouble, doesn‘t she? If this were my book, I‘d be luxuriating in baths, food and the library and just avoiding all that danger- it‘d be very boring haha. But that‘s not who Feyre is. She likes to test boundaries. She‘s still working for her family even when she‘s away from them. ⬇️

StayCurious Hoping to save them from the blight. Will she listen to the Suriel‘s advice and stay close to Tamlin or did it perhaps mean a different High Lord? Is Tamlin her future? Will he keep her safe when he seems to be losing control of his lands? Or is she the key perhaps to changing things? So many questions. 6mo

mcctrish So many questions. My book would be different too, I‘d be reading and looking at the art. Maybe trying some painting techniques since Tamlin did ask about hobbies 6mo

See All 10 Comments

OriginalCyn620 For sure, my book would be different too! I‘d be luxuriating in zero responsibility, opulence, and lots of me time. But Renee, I think you‘re right about Feyre being the key…I just don‘t know to what. And is this just me, or is anyone else shipping Tamlin and Feyre already? I want there to be some action in that regard 😂 6mo

maich I'm also thinking that she is the key to something or a cure. She loves adventure and troubles...I hoped Lucien was coming to the rescue but than surprise it's another one. Very unpredictable and suspensful book. I like it! 6mo

TheAromaofBooks I'm confused by why she thinks Lucien is more trustworthy than Tamlin - they feel equally suspicious to me 😂 6mo

CrowCAH @OriginalCyn620 totally shipping Tamlin and Feyre! 6mo

vonnie862 @TheAromaofBooks Same. Is Lucien trustworthy? I mean, why didn't he come when she started screaming? 6mo

TheAromaofBooks @vonnie862 - I just can't understand how she's like “oh I need someone to plead my case with Tamlin“ when Tamlin himself is like “do you want to hang out?“ and she blows him off to go hang out with Lucien in hopes that Lucien will plead her case?! How is that better than just talking to Tamlin yourself!?? 😅 6mo

StayCurious @TheAromaofBooks right? That was a head scratcher for sure 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.10,11,12: we learn more about Tamlin-that he‘s a great warrior-and Prythian, and catch glimpses of conversations that tell us things are not great in Fae-land. Tamlin and Lucien are worried and Feyre hates being in the dark. She‘s brave for digging and asking the questions she does. I wouldn‘t have the guts. But where does she fit in? Is there another reason Tamlin brought her there? Why is he running out of time?

mcctrish There does seem to be a grudging respect . I wonder how being human will help 6mo

LiseWorks I agree with you @StayCurious 6mo

See All 6 Comments

OriginalCyn620 Yes, I have been wondering if Tamlin had an ulterior motive for sparing Feyre‘s life. It seems there is a secret in the mix, but I have no idea what it could be! 6mo

vonnie862 @OriginalCyn620 I'm with you. Feyre might be their answer their looking for. 6mo

maich @OriginalCyn620 I'm tkinking the same. Is she important to solve the fae's land or a cure for their disease. I smell love triangle there. Was Tamlin jealousy that she spends time with Lucien? 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.7-9: Mmm Feyre gets to eat. I‘m here for it - let‘s fatten this poor girl up. Feyre tries to plan a way to escape. She disses Tamlin when he offers her a tour (brave or dumb) and seeks out the foxy Lucien to get him to plead her case with Tamlin. She should have just played nice with Tamlin in hopes of doing it herself - but what do I know. But Lucien sees right through her plan and basically puts a stop to it. ⬇️

StayCurious But every conversation Feyre has with these faeries, she‘s gleaning valuable info for later. They‘re telling her everything haha. She‘s clever - but will it be enough? (edited) 6mo

LiseWorks To tell the truth, I think she is terrified of Tamlin. She needs to do some spying to find out why she is really there. And yes, finally on the eating. 6mo

OriginalCyn620 Lucien seems scarier to me than Tamlin, but maybe I‘m the only one who thinks that! And I gotta say, I‘m hooked already…some pretty good world-building here! 6mo

mcctrish @OriginalCyn620 I agree, I think Tamlin is just awkward 6mo

vonnie862 @OriginalCyn620 I can see how he can be scarier.i don't quite trust him yet. 6mo

vonnie862 I know it's mentioned that faeries can't lie, but i was not expecting them to be so honest 6mo

CrowCAH Tampon‘s motives are hard to read at this point. Lucien may come off bad ass, but he‘s got a past too. 6mo

maich @OriginalCyn620 I think the same. She want to spent the time with the scariest fae. The end of the chapter. I read another one to see what was that. She doesn't think it's all a bit strange. She is not in captivity, she can do whatever she wants. And her family is provided for. And they can't kill her. 6mo

julesG @CrowCAH that autocorrect typo is legendary 🤣🤣😛 6mo

SarahBookInterrupted @julesG yes hilarious! 6mo

SarahBookInterrupted I‘m completely hooked on this story. I too read ahead @maich I think it‘s going to be hard to only read 2 chapters a day. It might be one of the read alongs I just skip ahead and re-live the moments and chapters as everyone else does with the posts but secretly know what happens next. 🤣 6mo

TheAromaofBooks I kind of forgot that we were starting this one but I am caught up now 😂 I think this story would be so much more believable if Feyre had people she actually LOVED back home. This whole “I promised my mother“ doesn't feel like strong enough motivation for how desperate she is to escape so she can be malnourished, cold, and get back to the people who treat her like garbage. 6mo

CrowCAH @julesG haha 🤣 I didn‘t even noticed! 6mo

#acotar #fantasy #romantasy

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.4-6: definite Beauty & the beast vibes now, as Feyre is forced to go to the Faerie land as prisoner/guest - her punishment for killing a faerie wolf. Of course, she‘s desperate to escape and return to her family - who, let‘s face it, don‘t stand a chance without her. I‘d be soaking in this vacation if I were her…⬇️

StayCurious but Feyre‘s grown up on terrible tales of the High Fae and she‘s even warned by the servant Alis not to trust her senses in Prythian. She‘s terrified and hoping for a chance to flee. Can she do what she‘s told for the time being and not get herself into trouble? 6mo

mcctrish I like the fairy tale vibes very much but I totally feel like Feyre should enjoy a bath and some food 6mo

See All 14 Comments

CrowCAH I definitely picked up on the BatB theme! It‘s nice she‘s selfless and wants to help her family. It does sound lien they‘d perish without her. 6mo

maich She is too strong not to eat. I would have eaten right away.😋 I find these creatures interesting. I don't think she'll be able to resist talking. Tongue will either get her into trouble or save her. Interesting that the High Fae took pity on her. I'm really curious to see how it will unravel. 6mo

LiseWorks I'm not sure if she should even escape. I would like to know why they brought her there. And why was that wolf there. Didn't he sense her there while he was goi g after the deer? 6mo

StayCurious @LiseWorks I guess it comes down to - will she really be free if she stays? I‘d happily be a prisoner - bring on the food! 6mo

BarkingMadRead I would so be living it up without all of that responsibility! 6mo

OriginalCyn620 I‘m wondering if the tales of the High Fae were greatly exaggerated, or maybe they once were true but aren‘t any longer? At any rate, I‘m loving the vibe of this book so far! And I understand why Feyre is wanting to flee because of said stories, but I agree with @BarkingMadRead - she should try to see it as a vacation from all her responsibilities and her horrible family. 😂 6mo

vonnie862 I don't blame her for being hesitant. If I'm taken against my will, I would be on my highest alert, even if my "prison" is a nice place. My question is, why was she taken and not killed? Why was she told that she was not a prisoner? 6mo

maich @vonnie862 I wanted to know that too. Why was she treated like a high Lady and not prisoner or slave. So many questions.🤔 @StayCurious yes bring the food. She'll never be hungry again. 6mo

SarahBookInterrupted Yes, I love the Beauty and Beast vibe and so far love it. I‘m with @BarkingMadRead too. This girl needs the vacation!! 6mo

#LittensLoveRomance #ACOTAR Ch.1-3: what an interesting beginning! A lot of information but it was delivered in a blunt, easy way so it was easy to follow. I hate her family - I feel bad that Feyre (pronounced Fair-ruh) is taking care of them and feels bound to them and bound to her terrible existence. They‘re useless. I said it. But A promise is a promise and Feyre made a serious one to her mother - ⬇️

StayCurious probably because the woman realized they would die without help. I appreciated the world building the author did - I‘m interested to see where this is going, especially considering how Ch.3 ended. I think we can all agree that Feyre is meant for more than this life. 6mo

mcctrish Serious Cinderella vibes but with a useless dad instead of an evil stepmother, not sure what‘s worst. We knew that wolf would be trouble 6mo

Read4life This is a reread for me. I‘m interested to see how it compares to my first read. 6mo

LiseWorks This is the kind of book I love. I had the same vibe with Cinderella and her stepsister. Dear Lord, they're useless. I kind of wonder about that wolf. 6mo

OriginalCyn620 Yes, definitely some Cinderella vibes. And I know that Feyre made a promise to her dying mother, but the disrespect is unbelievable! I‘d either rip them all new ones or leave them to die…I guess Feyre is a better person than I am! 😂 6mo

vonnie862 This reminded me more of the original Beauty and the Beast story. Beauty was the kind one while her sisters were mean. 6mo

StayCurious @vonnie862 that‘s what I thought of too 6mo

Cupcake12 After all the hype surrounding the book I‘m glad to start reading it. I‘m not normally a fantasy reader but I‘m intrigued to see where this story will go. 6mo

maich @vonnie862 It is Beauty and the beast retelling. Sisters give me the same vibe. I'm reading slovenian edition and hate that they wrote different pronounce. Now I'm confused how to say it. I like the beginning of the story and can't wait to see what happend next. I love fantasy so I'll probably enjoy in tis journey. 6mo
