3 stars - Fantasy/Paranormal Romance
So this is an obvious Beauty and the Beast fantasy retelling with faeries. I also saw a few hints of the Twilight and Hunger Games series, but maybe that's just me. I liked the story, but it was too long-winded and could've used some editing. And Feyre drove me nuts.
Honestly, I'm kind of surprised it's a series. If there had just been another chapter or two and/or an epilogue, I think this would've worked fine as a stand alone story and not needed any more bo ...more

REREAD again LOL 4/18/25
My daughter and I decided to reread this series. I have reread it with numerous groups before but never with my daughter who actually introduced me to this series or author for that matter.

3.0
I am really unsure of what to rate this. While I enjoyed the story, the protagonist, Feyre, was a walking contradiction that I had problems wrapping my head around. Feyre is supposed to be a huntress with keen senses, but she made some of the most stupid and poorly planned decisions. She teetered a line between bravery and stupidity. She often threw herself into confrontational situations with a species she had no knowledge of, all whilst brandishing weapons that she knew were not adequate. S ...more
