Book 12. A Court of Wings and Ruin by The Queen

Dear Lila,

So book 12, the MUCH anticipated ACOWAR.

Firstly, how pretty is the book. My favourite series and my favourite colour to boot. Just too nice! I actually couldn't stop looking at the cover.

While I remember, I also really like that the dedication she gave to her husband and her dog is also the last two sentences in the book. Cute.

So, I really enjoyed the book, loved h having it on kindle too so that I didn't have to wait until the evening to keep reading.

Spoilers below on the off chance anyone but us reads it.

I was surprised how quickly in the story she made it back to Rhys, I thought that would have lasted longer. I was pleased that Lucien went with her though too.

I always find her powers crazy really and forget how many of them she has. Although how come Rhys never gets any of the others either? I didn't get that!

I cried at the speech Rhys gave, but again love we said on text I do think that do often when stuff happens I do now always think "oh no did that really happen?" and then by the time you've read on a bit thinking about it's been resolved.

I'm struggling to believe the absolute lack of casualties, I mean I'm happy about it, don't get me wrong, but it's very unbelievable with the level of the battles they had. I was so worried the whole time it would be Cassian or Az.

I liked that the bits with Cassian and Nesta and Elain and Lucien weren't all wrapped up in a bow... And I liked Mor's explanation to Feyre about Az.

The whole fire bird thing was a bit random I think, but I guess with everything else isn't that far fetched.

Am pleased there will be other stories. I wonder what direction they'll go in? There's obviously lots of stories to be told in the other courts. Tarquin, Varian and Amren, Viviane and Kallias, Helion and Lucien etc. All good and I'd happily read about any of them.

I liked that Helion too had always been putting on a bad demeanour etc.

I also really liked Az and Elain.

I love SJM books, feels weird to think that I only started reading her books in January 2015.

Here's to her next one !

***** OBVIOUSLY!

Love, Rach x
