I made the mistake of looking up how the rest of the ACOTAR series ends after finishing the first book… well, I didn’t look up the ending itself, I was looking for other fans who were fangirling as hard as I was over Tamlin… and now knowing what will be done to Tamlin’s character, and how he ends up treating Feyre, I almost don't want to continue the series. Like, what is even the point of continuing now? 😭

Still, I’m going to continue diving into the series, even if it’s just to give TamTam the redemption arc fanfic where he finds a woman who gives him the love that he deserves. 😡

And I still hate Rhys, I don’t care what anyone says. From what I have gathered, he does worse than what Tamlin does but Feyre forgives him anyway because, I don’t fucking know, some mating bond bullshit thing.

I don’t know why I’ve grown so attached to this series. I had planned on reading the first book and just leaving it there, but now I want to devour every little detail, and willingly destroy my own heart.

So I’m probably going to be rereading the first ACOTAR book until I can get to the bookstore and purchase the rest of the series. I had expected to read just the first book and be done with it, but now I cannot think about anything else. When I say that I took my copy to bed with me just so that I could have something to hug after going through that emotional roller coaster…

I haven’t felt this way about a book series in so long. Not since I read Twilight for the first time as a teenager. Like, this is highly considered a “trashy” romance book, as are most BookTok books. But I leaned into it because I needed a distraction and ended up falling head over heels in love with all of the characters. And everyone in this book needs a damn hug. Feyre, Tamlin, Lucien, Rhysand… even that wretched bitch Amaranthe. I just wanted to lock everyone in a locket and keep it close to my heart.

Discovering ACOTAR in my 20s is probably the biggest mistake because now it’s going to be my only personality trait for the next year. I loved this book, I can’t explain it. It reads like a spicy fairytale. I’m so excited to continue the series but at the same time, I almost don’t want to because I know I’m going to cry harder than what I did with this one.

I know people have a lot of qualms about this author’s writing style. And I totally get it; to me, it feels like she underexplains a lot of things, and breezes through the story. World building clearly isn’t her strong suit.

I just finished reading A Court of Thorns and Roses. I went into this book fully expecting a trashy romance, and didn't care that much for Feyre in the beginning. However, by the time I finished this book, I was a SOBBING MESS. I loved her and Tamlin together so much, and I almost don't want to continue this series because everyone tells me she's going to end up with Rhysand (I do not like him).

I just loved it so much. I literally sobbed into the book near the end. That's all I can say right now. Maybe I'll write a more detailed review when I've had time to gather my thoughts but I'm fresh from finishing this. Just.... 5 stars.
