Book Review: A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
1:00 AM“To the people who look at the stars and wish, Rhys."
Rhys clinked his glass against mine.
“To the stars who listen— and the dreams that are answered.”
― Sarah J. Maas
Goodreads summary:
Feyre survived Amarantha's clutches to return to the Spring Court—but at a steep cost. Though she now has the powers of the High Fae, her heart remains human, and it can't forget the terrible deeds she performed to save Tamlin's people.
Nor has Feyre forgotten her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court. As Feyre navigates its dark web of politics, passion, and dazzling power, a greater evil looms—and she might be key to stopping it. But only if she can harness her harrowing gifts, heal her fractured soul, and decide how she wishes to shape her future—and the future of a world cleaved in two.
Review:
When I read
the first novel (A Court of Thorns and Roses) of this series, I was truly worried
about the second book. “How could anything ever top this?” was my question.
Reading A Court of Mist and Fury I must say that the story has gotten 20 times
more interesting. How? That’s a question I ask myself as well.
There a quite
a few things that made me fall hopelessly in love with this novel, however I
must say that one thing was exceptional throughout the entirety of the book.
The character development was truly incomparable. I have yet to read another
novel wherein a character grew as much as within the characters in this story.
I’ll restrain from mentioning the name of the character I’m specifically thinking
about due to spoilers, however I can say that everything you knew will change
drastically.
Sarah J. Maas
knew how to weave the story so remarkably well, that at one time I stopped
reading only to acknowledge how magnificent this writer actually is. Things I
haven’t expected hit me right in the face and I genuinely cannot wait to read
the last installment of this trilogy.

I have heard and read so many good things about this book. Glad I got to read your thoughts on it!
ReplyDeleteIt's really good, Gisselle! It's even better than the first book, even though I loved that one as well!
