"I remember a group of us all went to this record store - FOPP in Covent Garden - and they were having a Blue Note sale, and every record was like three quid. And I remember all of us going in with like 30 quid and we’d just clean up on the catalogue, and that CD was one of the first ones I remember going home and listening to. I don’t know if you’ve had one of them experiences where you listen to a record and you just feel something change in you. Like, what's happening? How have I never heard anything like this? There's so many questions in your head. Even still to this day I’m like how did you even make that? How do you even begin to approach that and make a work like it, to this day it still stands that test of time; creativity, authenticity, sound, energy all of that stuff. Yeah man, shout out to Andrew Hill."

Let's be honest, I haven't come across anything by Sarah J. Maas that I wouldn't practically sell my soul to read again. This new book included. The first 10 chapters or so were a bit slow, slow enough that I worried about whether or not I'd enjoy this one - which was a devastating thought. But it quickly picked up speed and pretty much skyrocketed from there. Bryce is such a relatable character and this world, despite its magic and mythical creatures, is comfortable because it's so similar to reality. Her love and loyalty run so deep, she's definitely a friend I would want in my corner. She's a total bad ass, something I always look forward to when reading anything by Sarah. Now I've finished this book, the second will not be released until next year, so I'm left stewing with so many questions and theories! I'm so excited for the next book!

I did not want to say goodbye to these characters. I know it's permanent, even if they won't be the main characters in Sarah's spin off book(s). Rhys was, as always, so swoon worthy and dark and, admittedly, delicious. The final stretch of his and Feyre's story left me in tears, even if the ending was surprising. At first, when I closed my book and stared at my wall in both wonderment and despair (I mean, what am I supposed to read now?? Who will ever measure up to the greatness that is Rhysand?!), I was a little confused at some of the seemingly obvious foreshadowing Sarah left and certain questions that remained unanswered. Then I remembered her next book will be a spin off, possibly explaining these little bits of unfinished business. Even if Rhys and Feyre will not be the center of the next story, I am excited to see how things progress and who Sarah will be making the main characters.
