I still need to update my reading list for 2018. But I've been swamped in work, not to mention my procrastinating nature is not making things any easier ('>.<)

How'd you like A Court of Thorns, Jenn?


message 10: by Jenn (new)

Jenn I really liked it, reading the 2nd one now and it totally changes your opinion from the first book but it’s soooo addicting.

I honestly had a hard time with the first book, I didn't like Feyre's attitude, Tamlin felt lukewarm and that riddle was totally obvious so imagine how much it frustrated me that she couldn't figure it in three months!
But I absolutely adored the second book (which I read only cause I heard Rhys features in it), as you said, it totally changes your perspective :D
Feyre's character also got really strong and I loved the change she goes through in the second book.


message 12: by Jenn (new)

Jenn I love Rhys, he’s everything she needs. Tamlin is just pissing me off with his selfishness. I love how Feyre is evolving into something stronger but I’m afraid something is going to happen and I’m going to end up crying lol

Ipshita (miss_romanceaholic) | 4744 comments Mod
Same here. Rhys remains my favourite character. Ah, I'm not going to spoil, but the ending will surprise you!


message 14: by Jenn (new)

Jenn Did you read the 3rd book?


message 15: by Ipshita (new)

Ipshita (miss_romanceaholic) | 4744 comments Mod
I started it in December, but then got busy. I haven't been able to pick it up again. Though I'll probably get to it soon enough. Let me know how you like it :)


message 16: by Jenn (new)
