The beginning was a bit slow at first but then it started to pick up towards the middle.
Feyre was a bit annoying in the beginning about wanting to leave and go back home. Like girl you have everything you want. Also Rhys!!! Talk about tall, dark, and mysterious
I'm definitely interested to see where the series takes off too!

The last 15 chapters were so worth it. wow. I was left absolutely gobsmacked and I can't wait to continue reading the rest of the series. 

Overall this story was really well-paced, nothing felt too rushed. Some aspects/plot lines were a bit predictable but it wasn't enough to make me drop this book. However, I will admit that the more racy scenes felt out of place at times and the language used within them made me cringe a bit. That aspect aside, I didn't feel bombarded by those types of scenes (thank the lord), as I found the action/adventure/world-building within the book to be so much more compelling. Was not expecting to enjoy it as much as I did, especially since I wouldn't describe myself as being drawn to fantasy novels. 

I would also like to add how much I love seeing SJM serve so much face in her picture at the back of the book. like OKAYY.

This was so fun! Uses tropes and elements from many different stories, but sometimes you just need an escape / brain candy book and I immediately wanted to read the rest of the series after finishing this one. I can’t wait to see what happens next!!
