About this deal

ACOSF - No surprise this was my favorite story in the series because it is Nesta's story. I enjoyed Feyre and Rhys, don't get me wrong, but I was needing more from Nesta, so getting her in this was everything. It's not secret that this past year and a half I have been really struggling with a dark depression and trying to heal myself from it, so this book really touched me. I was weepy throughout because I just felt everything she was going through internally on a personal level. I am also glad that she finally got her chance to not only save her family, which she has regretted since letting Feyre go out hunting, to saving herself. I was so disappointed when this ended and has given me the biggest reading hangover. But I am honestly so satisfied with her story I believe I gave this story 5 stars. I also need to see if that anything will come from More and Emerie...like you can't just mention that and then drop it, honestly I need more.

Throne of Glass follows assassin Celaena Sardothien and includes the following books: The Assassin’s Blade, Throne of Glass, Crown of Midnight, Heir of Fire, Queen of Shadows, Empire of Storms, Tower of Dawn, and Kingdom of Ash. There are also box sets, a game (Embers of Memory), and a coloring book, as well as a collector’s edition of Throne of Glass. This series is now complete, but will be re-released with new covers in 2023. Today’s video is a short review of the collector’s edition of Sarah J Maas’s A Court of Thorns and Roses, along with a flip through the collector’s edition of Throne of Glass at the end of the video as they form a matched pair of sorts. I don’t feel like Nesta communicates enough with Cassian, they mostly connect through their bodies. And Rhys and Feyre is kind of bland here. Mostly used this book to see how Maas is setting up Elain and Azriel. How azriel’s attention is shifting away from Mor.Her trauma is heavily exaggerated and overexploited. I felt like watching videos of 'selfless acts of kindness' of people who shove their phones in the face of a homeless person while giving them food or money, so that everyone can see how magnanimous they are... The idea of this fantasy world is so amazing! We all know that Sarah is unbeatable in world-building. And she did it again. She made a lovely world.

I loved the world-building, the action, and I loved many of the characters, especially Lucien, the Suriel, and the Inner Circle ( I would love a separate book about Amren) - I felt sorry for them for having to put up with the Archeron sisters.I am the author of three fantasy series: Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses, and Crescent City, as well as a stand-alone book called Catwoman: Soulstealer. I could rant for hours about ACOTAR, which means that there are things I liked otherwise I would not waste my breath. The way the sisters got together again how Nesta became nicer and how Feyre let the past go was cute. All that warmed my heart. I cried when they slept together.

this opinion of those characters didn't change. but in addition i found rhys was cool and promising. I'd known he would be someone vital to this story. i (HAD) loved his character, i had known he hid his things himself for whatever purpose that he might seen as his priority (read: his family, his court). i had known he was the "anti hero" or that grey character everyone would fall in love with his complexities. this whole series was good enough and enjoyable. the most interesting part is that was the first story which showed me anyone could fall in love more than once. this series, especially later part of story, had much feminism energy. from slow-paced to fast-paced. amazing. Be swept away to the City of Starlight with this exclusive, Special Edition, Officially Licensed box set of the A Court of Thorns and Roses series. The characters were SO AMAZING! They all have different personalities and good and bad qualities. They did bad and good things and we got to know the main reason why they had done things in the past and their story. Despite having a lot of potential, despite not being bored for one moment – annoyed and in danger of having being left with permanent eye damage due to the constant eye rolling, but not bored – it is heavily clichéd and there are elements that just 'dumb it down'.Not to mention that you have all these High Lords that lived for hundreds of years, fought wars, are well versed in strategy and court intrigues, but need a 19-20 year old girl to save them. The author's idea of empowering women is by making them into bullies, and men into doormats. The aim seems to be getting to the top and then forgetting who helped you get there. A Court of Thorns and Roses follows huntress Feyre and her friends and family and includes the following books: A Court of Thorns and Roses, A Court of Mist and Fury, A Court of Wings and Ruin, A Court of Frost and Starlight, and A Court of Silver Flames. There are also box sets and a coloring book, as well as a collector’s edition of A Court of Thorns and Roses. This is an ongoing series.

I am disappointed because it could have been an amazing series (high number of copies sold does not translate into high quality literature) but there are parts so, so badly written it made me cringe. Also can we mention how throughout ACOSF there was no chemistry whatsoever between Az and Gwyn and it was only mentioned after Rhysand said no. Proving yet again that Az wanted Elain not Gwyn. i understood love couldn't be a good excuse to do bad things but once again, everyone was in the phase of truma. The author repeats the same ideas so many times that instead of emphasizing the message she wants to deliver, she diminishes it and, as a reader, annoys the h… out of you. We are constantly reminded how much Feyre suffered, how she overcome her fears, how amazing she is. ACOWAR - The battle was my favorite part of this book. I cried when she lost the Suriel, utterly shattered me. Obviously it was detrimental when she lost Rhys and Amren but honestly losing the Suriel sent me more into fits than anything. However, holy shit did I enjoy Nesta's character growth SO much in this story. Also, why is Tamlin *still* so obsessed with her?? I mean honestly! He was only interested in her because it would help break the curse if she were to say "I love you" so it's really hard for me to believe that he actually had/has this much feeling for her. Talk about toxic exes. I also need confirmation or something to come out of the Helion being Lucien's dad plot line in the future.

I would say this is a definite 5 star read. Maybe not one I would re-read but it took me on an amazing journey nonetheless. I will definitely be trying out other series by the author! There seems to be no line, not even a blurred one, between self-love talk and outright narcissism – the constant self-love talks Feyre gives herself are actually just the inner talks of an incredibly narcissistic person. I loved how Feyre started to “accept” (and adore) fairies and how she became one of them. She left her old thoughts and life behind. I loved her. I loved all of them. It was very hard for me to rate this series – it's worth mentioning this review is only for the first 4 books in the series; I did not and I will not read ACOSF After I read the first book, I got really excited. It was easy to read, really well-written, had adorable characters, and even a good plot. I think it is good choice if you want to read romantic fantasies. (It’s still my favorite series today.) Since then, I have read a lot more regularly and faster. This series was one of the main reasons I started to love reading so much.
