I don't know how I can STILL be surprised that Sarah J Maas can craft an entire cast of characters that I adore. Even (especially!) the baddies ;) ...more

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!

It didn't disappoint.

I enjoyed it very much!

I'm beginning a stage in my life where I'm reading books that others have told me I "should" more like I'll enjoy them, more frequently. It's very "And how do you feel about that" but I'm serious. I am making a real effort to change my behavior. I want to change. I am going to change and I feel like getting through this pfft book was pfft but it;s over.

I did it! 2019 here I come!!! ...more

4.5 for me
Absolutely LOVE the story!
The writing got on my nerves at times when she constant repeats some things. For example; how she loves to paint. For the amount of times it's written in this book it just didn't seem all that relevant to repeat it so often. We got it the first time :) ...more
