Finished: Jan 1 2022

Review:

(To be fair I originally started this book in 2019 but due to how the book started with her back living with her abuser I was struggling to read it given other things in my life at that time)

def going to need a re-read to fully process some of the revelations such as lucien being a bastard,  it being implied elain and Az will end up together. (also  the hints about the "mating bond" at the end seem bad for elain if she doesn't gravitate towards Lucien)

Felt like almost everything was wrapped up a little too nicely except for the human queens angle, which I'm guessing will be the subject of the future books. (not silver flames but az maybe or mor? ngl I'll be upset if we mor before az)

3 Words to describe this book:

- disjointed

- a bow

Epiphanies/quotes/ Things to remember:

- when cassian lands to save her followed by az

- The revelation under the prison about who the carver had been appearing as to Feyre

Kingdom of ash (ToG 8)

  Title:   Kingdom of Ash Author: SJM   Publisher:  Bloomsbury Year Published: 2020 Started: April1  2022  Finished: April 12 2022 Review: I was here for Lorcan and Elide's arc. However Aelin/Rowan once they were reunited, I didn't love their arc. Also I felt that the wolf tribe reveal was frustrating another of Aelin's plans we see or hear nothing about, I guess it was a fitting way for the series to end. I did not think Aedion did enough  to redeem himself, Lysandra should have made him beg even more. I know his father died but in the run up to that  I still hate Chaol, I know I enjoyed the focus on the mmc's mental issues in ToD but here he still annoyed me. Also while I liked them as a couple in ToD, I felt like Yrene was diminished here because of her relationship with him. (I needed more of her and Aelin) Epiphanies/quotes/ Things to remember:  - "So Lorcan did." - this book was already 1000 pages long and we couldn't get their fir...

The High Mountain Court

 Title:   The High Mountain Court Author : A.K. Mulford   Publisher:  Year Published: 2021 Started:  April 10th 2022 Finished: April 13th 2022 Review: This is a book  that feels rushed, it could have maybe benefitted from another 200 or so pages. While there was decent world building in parts, others felt completely glossed over and we were left to fill in the gaps.  .  I do love a fated mates trope but again it feels rushed. Also it seems like it's going to be enemies to lovers, but she is into from the moment they meet, and I need my enemies to lovers crack  I did enjoy that the witches seemed to be main characters like the fae, and not secondary until they became annoying to the plot. Epiphanies/quotes/ Things to remember: Why did he have to speak to her like a friend and treat her like an enemy?
