It is not bad for a finale but I was hoping for MORE. When I started to read this trilogy about two years ago, I Wow! Just wow! I can’t even! I’m still trying to recover from the awesomeness and the jaw-dropping effect of this book! Holy, holy, holy! It is not bad for a finale but I was hoping for MORE. When I started to read this trilogy about two years ago, I already fell in love with Feyre Archeron, because why not? She symbolises feminism, bravery, and passion! She is the perfect example of someone who followed her heart and wasn’t even afraid or ashamed of what other people will say or think about her. Right from the very first book (A Court of Thorns and Roses), Feyre already had my respect and admiration! Her character is so inspiring and empowering. I, as a woman, loved how she took matters into her own hands and did not bother considering other people’s perception of her. Her unconditional love for her family is the ultimate reason why this trilogy is a success. And of course the fact that she ended up with her one true “MATE”. It is brain racking how things turned and twisted since the first book, how first loves and stuff like that can still change and teach us lessons that we may carry as we go on with our lives. Hers and Rhysand’s is the perfectly imperfect love story. I am so in love with their pair. Before I was rooting for Tamlin but Rhys is just too perfect for Feyre and they complement each other. They accepted each other’s flaws and weaknesses and they embraced each other strengths. It is so heart-warming how they truly adored each other. I just think that the book contains too many sensual scenes and it is not suitable for young adult readers. That is just my opinion because this book is under the Young Adult Fantasy category so I think the sex scenes may be too much. But I do like the fact that it is LGBT friendly. The action scenes deserve to be commended because OMG who would have thought that the characters that defeated the King of Hybern were most of the time unnoticed. I also enjoyed the OTPs (one true pair) here especially Cassian and Nesta! Nesta transformed from being a stone-cold bitch to someone who actually has a heart. Perfect! I was just hoping for something between Elain and Lucien but the book already ended. There are still too many things that I wanted to happen but it felt like there’s no place for them anymore. I hope that the book that will be published next year which I think is a novella would include some points that were missed in this third and final installment. As always, SJM’s writing style never ceases to mesmerise me! I was in a slump because the book is overwhelming considering the fact that my copy has 705 pages. It took me a while but I finally made it. It was so damn worth it. I love Feyre’s narration but it could have been better if it was an alternating point of view between her and Rhysand. In addition to this, I was impressed with how things ended up between Feyre and Tamlin and how they’ve dealt with their situation as grown and mature adults. Feyre may have been Tamlin’s the one that got away but I still hope that in the next book happiness will still find its way towards him. After all, he was my first love in this series. I can’t ignore Rhys’ feelings and devotion towards his mate. He is just the best book husband ever. This book is magnificent; and the way that friendship, love, and family were the main focus of this masterpiece makes it my best read for 2017! I will surely miss the characters and all the crap and shit that they went through. Kudos for ending a trilogy in an amazing and entertaining way! Highly recommended, as ALWAYS!
