Synopsis
Read A Court of Mist and Fury novel reivew:
let me start by saying when i picked up A Court of Mist and Fury book for the first time i almost put it down when i saw that it was 624 pages!!! i loved the first book i read, A COURT OF THORNS AND ROSE'S which was 432 which is alot . im so glad i got it! it was AWESOME!!! this writer has such a great way of pulling you in from the beginning to the end. i love her characters their so deep and have many layers. the high lord of the night has had my attention from the very start he is by far one of my favorite characters of any book i have read.he has such personality and all the things i love in a male lead. hes loyal, kind and cares for his people and his inner circle from cassian to mor to amren to the dark and sexy mysterious azriel another of my favorite characters. rhysand is a very loveable bad boy and the way he banters and filrts with feyre is sexy and hot all in one. i knew these two would come together, or at least i hoped. tamlin was sexy and seemed like the golden boy and hero, but i saw him differently. he was a controller who used love and kindness to a girl who hadnt been shown it in along time. if anything i liked lucien better he seemed to be a good guy, but he was doing what tamlin said even when he new it was wrong. i havent been pulled into a book this much were i actually saw it in my head from the characters to the places and things that were taking place. i love this world sarah has created. anything fae has always held my attention and i cant wait for the next book. their going to be sorry they messed with the high lord and lady of the night court and their family and people!!!

I preferred the Feyre of the 1st book (if not that much), who was plucky, capable & resourceful. After all, she did manage to bring the evil fae queen, Amarantha, down despite not being Fae (with capital F as opposed to human, with a small "h"), but a „simple” human (though admittedly the SSF-factor was already lurking behind like Rhys Under-the-Mountain, if you forgive me this weak attempt at a metaphor) & this made ACOTAR’s end more intense & dramatic.
So, in my point of view, Feyre’s character & the story itself would have been much more interesting, if she had been allowed to stay human. But it was not to be. Neither would SJM leave her sisters, Nesta – the most interesting character for me – & Elayne alone: they just have to be fae-convertible, otherwise no chance of featuring in her stories.
So, once again, we have this oversupply of Fae primadons and primadonnas with the word „ALPHA” & „DELUXE-EDITION” printed all over them. And they (with the exception of sunshiny, kind Tarquin & loyal, decent Lucien) pissed me off no end. There has never been a bunch of species like them: stuck-up, supercilious, self-obsessed, vainglorious, patronizing bastards who have no idea what to do with their privileged lives & have been taking it all out on humans and each other for hundreds of years for sport. They seriously need to get their heads out of their arses.
I got especially incensed when all of a sudden Rhys & Feyre turn up at Nesta’s/Elayne’s house bringing their army leaders to impress (or rather to intimidate) them demanding their help for a war that would most probably kill them (at this point they are „only” humans). And then we get Cassian or Rhys trying to put the screws on Nesta by preaching & emotionally blackmailing her, when she is not willing accommodate their bidding at once without hesitation. The bloody cheek! So Nesta, holding her own against them, had me cheering. I found her character much more intriguing than all the rest of Rhys & Co. put together. Oh, OK, Amren was also an exception.
And now I finally get to Rhysand, who, instead of keeping his morally ambiguous and as such, his highly interesting character of ACOTAR, gets turned into a perfectly sugary and sloppy cinnamon roll.
