A Court of Thorns and Roses Book Review

A Court of Thorns and Roses

By Sarah J. Mass



SynopsisWhen nineteen-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution for it. Dragged to a treacherous magical land she only knows about from legends, Feyre discovers that her captor is not an animal, but Tamlin—one of the lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled their world.

           As she dwells on his estate, her feelings for Tamlin transform from icy hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie and warning she's been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But an ancient, wicked shadow grows over the faerie lands, and Feyre must find a way to stop it... or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever. (Goodreads Summary)


My Review: I went into this book knowing it had a bunch of hype surrounding it, and it surely did not disappoint. I started reading it around nine in the evening, and finished it are two in the morning. I had to finish it in one sitting because every chapter ended with you wanting more, and I just couldn't not know what happened next.
            Sarah J. Mass does an amazing job building up the characters and their personality (I absolutely loved Lucian, he was a little bitch), and giving each of them their own little traits that make them unique. The world building is stellar, and all of her descriptions of the Spring Court make me want to go live there (you know, apart from the creepy monsters). ACOTAR is another wonderful novel written by the queen, Sarah J. Mass, and I suggest that you go read her Throne of Glass Series if you liked ACOTAR because it's amazing, and Mass does an amazing job with the characters and world building in the ToG series as well. 

I give A Court of Thorns and Roses a five out of five star rating because it always kept an upbeat pace, the characters and words were stellar, and it always left you wanting more.
