If you can’t tell, I’m tearing through this series like it’s nobody’s business. And yes, Maas’ other series have moved higher up on my #TBR pile.
It’s hard to write a spoiler-free review, so I’ll keep this short and sweet. ACOWAR is action-packed through and through, whether that’s on the battlefield, mind-to-mind, or in Rhys and Feyre’s bedroom (or wherever they may be).
I felt a rollercoaster of emotions as the story came full circle. There was everything from powerful female leads, almost-perfect yet emotionally-damaged men, incredible character development, surprises, and spice, plus I really enjoyed ignoring my adult responsibilities for a few days (oops). While I undoubtedly enjoyed #ACOMAF more, this was still a great read.
On to the next one!
