A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas

 

My thoughts

I'm really enjoying this series so much. This is the third book and it's even better than the last one. I never thought I would enjoy this genre of book before but oh my I do. There is everything in them. Laughter, cringes, excitement, light horror, thrills, chills, and tears. 

This book takes on another ride with the Faes. You get get to know a bit more about each character. More about their lives, fears, and loves. More about their strengths and weaknesses. More about their truths. 

Some of these characters grew on me a bit. Elaine comes out of her shell a tiny bit. She certainly has a lot going on but she's likable in many ways. Nesta is still stronger but you'll see a different side to her also. Feyre is still herself but in many ways she has grown also. She learned a lot about doing things that she wants to without needing to ask first. I like these sisters and hope each will continue to grow. As for Rhysand.. I still love him. He's the one that I hoped from the start that Feyre would be with. He's a kind and caring Fae and very strong also. He puts his friends and family first and foremost whether in battle or just being protected in everyday life.

You'll also see a different side of Tamlin and Lucien. Whether you like this side or not remains to be seen. I have high hopes for both but especially Lucien. I can't say why just yet.

This author has such a good imagination. Her writing style is great. She pulls you in and keeps you turning the pages. There is so much going on yet it's so easy to follow. I throughly enjoyed this book and the previous two. I highly recommend giving them a try. This one is 703 pages of excitement and intrigue. It takes you into a big battle between different regions and even the humans. It's exciting and gripping and keeps you on your toes all the way. I loved it.
