“Pity those who don't feel anything at all.”
Okay, I liked this book, was good read, nice story good characters (like the way Sarah J, Maas build them) love the world Humans and faeries, salves and masters, common and superior beings relationship. Sure we saw this kind of scenarios' many time before but this one was same (on some level but also had unique characteristics too).
On a side note: when i ended the book, before the acknowledgment theirs page with some character's pronunciations whic

OK OK 5 BLOODY SHINING STARS
Where do I start? ALL THE FEELS GOING THROUGH ME AAAGGHHH
Important points
-- I ship myself with Rhys because daaaaaaaaamnnn... why ever not?

-- I would not say this book is NOT a YA novel but more to a NEW ADULT because Sarah really upped the maturity of the situations that occur in the book especially with more detailed description of sexual matters. This is not erotica or anything like that.
I'm just warning you if you do get uncomfortable with these kind of things es ...more

Reread Dec. 2023
This book was there for me when I was a teenager and needed something to make me feel alive again. For that reason it’ll always hold a piece of my heart and such nostalgia for me, for being the safe space I needed once upon a time 🥹💕

Oh my GOD. That is all I really have to say. I freaking LOVED this book. Holy heck. This was above and beyond anything I could have expected. This is now my favorite fantasy novel of all time just in case you were wond ...more

Reread August 2022 - Audio
Reread April 2017 - I enjoyed this book so much more this time around. Honestly though that was 90% due to Rhys and me trying to see a hidden meaning in everything 😜
I am really torn with this book. The first hundred pages really dragged and took me so long to get through. The little twists and turns sucked me in though and kept me reading until the end. My major issue with this book was the grammatical errors and odd sentence structure. I found it so much harder to read ...more

THIS BOOK WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! It's my first Sarah J. Maas book and I absolutely loved it! I definitely need to read the Throne of Glass series now, because she is an amazing author!

While reading:
Why can't I have a day off and stay home to finish this? Why???
And why did I stay up unit 1 am if I knew I wouldn't get a day off? Urgh!
Finished:
Ahhhhhh I love this! Loveeee looveeee this!
Beauty and the Beast is my favorite fairy tale, so there was a good chance I'd love this. Plus, Maas wrote this. Even though I struggled with Crown of the Midnight (still haven't finished it), I loved Throne of Glass. Maas writes kick-ass heroines and awesome love interests.
It didn't disappoint.

Hmmmm. I can't say I loved this book but it's certainly intriguing. I don't find Feyre particularly easy to connect to but I look forward to seeing where it leads.

First read: Oct/Nov 2015
Si hubieran más estrellas se las daría todas.
Second read: July 2016
By reading the book a second time I had the chance to pay attention to details I overpassed during my first time reading it. For example, this time I wasn't so blinded by Tamlin and Feyre's bond, feeling it a bit awkward at times due to the reasons behind Tamlin's interest in her. I liked Rhys a lot more (way more). I remember reading the last 100 pages really really fast during my first time reading, not ...more

Read it for the second time and I think I give it 3.5 🌟 It was fun and I was eager to finish it (didn’t remember much of it). I think it’s too much cover hyped and I do understand why it was so popular many years ago!
