Ela roubou uma vida. Agora, deve pagar com o coração.
Nesse misto de A bela e a fera e Game of Thrones, Sarah J. Maas cria um universo repleto de ação, intrigas e romance. Depois de anos sendo escravizados pelas fadas, os humanos conseguiram se libertar e, agora, coexistem com os seres místicos.

Após matar uma criatura feérica transformada em lobo, uma criatura bestial surge exigindo uma reparação.
Arrastada para uma terra mágica e traiçoeira ― que ela só conhecia através de lendas ―, a jovem descobre que seu captor não é um animal, mas Tamlin, senhor da Corte Feérica da Primavera. À medida que ela descobre mais sobre este mundo onde a magia impera, seus sentimentos por Tamlin passam da mais pura hostilidade até uma paixão avassaladora. Enquanto isso, uma sinistra e antiga sombra avança sobre o mundo das fadas e Feyre deve provar seu amor para detê-la... ou Tamlin e seu povo estarão condenados.
Denne overraska meg. Eg las den i lag med ein kollega, og alt eg visste på forhand kom frå tiktok. Boka var heilt grei. Den underhaldt meg gjennom veka. Eg har allereie kjøpt neste bok i serien.
Den er absolutt ikkje god, men den er underhaldande.
Lord this book was misogynistic and dumb. The only use for this book is to read it in order to make fun of it or to use it as example of how to write terribly and then vow to never ever write anything like this book. In the acknowledgements the author said she worked on this book for YEARS! Holy hell. It felt like it was written in a few months while under the influence of lots of stimulants. I hate this book so much. I hate the author for having written it. Edit: I have to put at least a half a star in order for it to be considered that I "rated" this book something. No stars is not an option and just means "unrated" but I want you to know I really mean No fucking stars. It does not even deserve half a star.
I had been promising myself that I would read this series but I always kept putting it off. Mostly, this was due to the fact I had read A Throne of Glass a long time ago and found the female lead not readily to my liking. I had always promised myself that I would eventually give it another try but first, I wanted to read A Court of Thorn and Roses. I had been hearing a lot of mixed reviews but my friends have mostly been the ones telling me that the series was much better once you started reading it.
I won't lie when I have been told that the series is a mixture of Hades and Persephone with Beauty and the Beast. I have always been a sucker for these and I had placed this series on my TBR. Now that I had time, I decided this would …
I had been promising myself that I would read this series but I always kept putting it off. Mostly, this was due to the fact I had read A Throne of Glass a long time ago and found the female lead not readily to my liking. I had always promised myself that I would eventually give it another try but first, I wanted to read A Court of Thorn and Roses. I had been hearing a lot of mixed reviews but my friends have mostly been the ones telling me that the series was much better once you started reading it.
I won't lie when I have been told that the series is a mixture of Hades and Persephone with Beauty and the Beast. I have always been a sucker for these and I had placed this series on my TBR. Now that I had time, I decided this would be the series for December. The final books that would end my 2023 reading year.
But now having read the series, I am a bit torn about where to rank it. While the story felt slow - too slow for that matter, it did have its moments. But again, the female lead is what drove me insane. I don't what it is about Maas's female leads but they end up being extremely annoying. I don't feel she improves much. I don't want to give too much away, but I found her decisions and actions frustrating at times. However, there were also moments where she showed strength and resilience, which I appreciated.
On the other hand, the world-building in this series was phenomenal. Maas has created a rich and vivid world, filled with different courts and creatures. I was completely immersed in this fantastical world and loved learning about the various realms and their politics.
The romance in this series felt slow. For one thing, I am glad that this was not some insta-love with both declaring how much they were made for each other, blah blah blah but it was taken slowly allowing the characters to see each other's flaws and strengths but at the same time I also felt that it was at a crawl. It could be frustrating at times and at other times it felt right.
Final Thought:
Despite its flaws, I did enjoy reading the A Court of Thorns and Roses series. The rich world-building and captivating romance kept me engaged despite some of the frustrations with the main character. I would still recommend giving it a try, especially if you enjoy fantasy and romantic elements.
4.35/5
