## Description

desertcart.com: A Court of Thorns and Roses eBook : Maas, Sarah J.: Kindle Store

Review: Delivered Much More Than I Expected - Let me preface by saying that I sat down to read this book and could not put it down until I completed it within a 24 hours period. This is an occurrence I find so rare these days as I get older. My basis for a good book have become more and more demanding the more I read and the less time I have to read. I'm someone who will not hesitate to drop a book a hundred pages in if it's not gripping me by any means. With that said, my requirements are quite simple although they seem hard to achieve these days. Good enough writing, engaging plots, believable characters, and “HEA”. ACOTAR certainly exceeded my expectations because I dove into it purely based on my immense interest in its premise being based on a Beauty and the Beast retelling, which is one of my most loved stories. And the intrigue of faery court politics, which I am always fascinated by. The rest I was willing to chance since this is in the YA fantasy category and I find most of these make my eyes roll while reading a majority of the time. But ACOTAR delivered on all that I asked for: world building, character developments, romance, and action. WORLD BUILDING: Wow do I desperately wish to see this Fae world brought to life on screens. I appreciated the illustrated map of their world before the book began. It made envisioning the world of Prythian a breeze. I would probably read every single book if Maas ever decided to write about each of the seven Courts and their ruling High Lords. ACOTAR took place majority of the time in the Spring court and it was as if I was there walking along with Feyre during all her outings. ROMANCE: There was no “instalove” happening here and for that I am always grateful. The draw in any forms of fiction for me is a slow burn, gradual build of love. It makes for deeper investments from the audience and the payoff scenes so much more satisfying. I will admit I was generally indifferent to Tamlin for the first quarter of the book. He was pretty stiff and bland but after the incident that occurred the nite of the Spring ritual(fans self) I started to fall in love with him just as much as the heroine was. It also helped that their relationship building after that was sweet and believable. My only nitpick is that although his face was concealed, it was already implied that he was extremely good looking. Which contradicts the theme of loving someone despite their outer appearance that BatB conveyed. CHARACTER DEVELOPMENTS: Feyre was brave but ultimately very human and therefore imperfect. She made bad choices and actions but I always understood where her motivations came from. At the beginning it seemed as if characters behaved in certain ways "just because" to push a point, which seemed forced. But once they were revisited and layers were peeled at a later point, their actions suddenly made sense. ACTION: For anyone who is expecting a full on action-packed book from beginning to end then you might be a little bit disappointed. There were one or two scenes thrown into the first 3/4, but most of the action came at the last quarter of the book. And when it came it was exciting and riveting to see played out. Although this is a first in a planned trilogy, ACOTAR should have no problem standing on its own should I decide not to continue the rest of the series. The main plot was tied up leaving me feeling satisfied and fulfilled while just enough bait was dangled to make me anticipate the next book. I hate it when series writers end their books in a cliffhanger in order to hook readers to anticipate the next book. Guess what, it doesn’t work like that. All that does is generates unnecessary aggravation and ruins any good feeling the reader had upon finishing that book. Especially when the reader usually has to wait up to a year for the next. *RATINGS CATEGORY AND SLIGHT SPOILERS* As most others have pointed out about the included sex scenes, they are a bit more detailed than the typical YA fade to black. This is a heads up for anyone who is wary of reading sex scenes described in books or intends this for younger readers.
Review: A solid series - no spoilers - This series is easy to read and get engaged in. I truly wish it ended after the first 3 books. The last 2 books are pointless money grabs imo. Maybe if i was more entranced by the story and committed to the characters, I would have enjoyed the next 2 books in the series. The plot was interesting but had many overdone ideas that I've already read about countless times. I totally get the love for this series if it was your first romantasy! The characters have depth and the world building is done well. The books read very YA and are even a bit cringe at points. I don't think it is bad writing but just the genre and intended audience. The main character Feyre is easy to like but plays the typical FMC role. Nothing interesting. The whole series gives me Hunger Games meets fantasy world. It is a good easy read and I recommend it but it will not live in my brain rent-free.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic book!
*by N***E on December 26, 2025*

ACOTAR completely pulled me into its world! I loved the mix of fantasy, romance, and danger — it felt magical, intense, and addictive all at once. At first, I really liked Tamlin. His protectiveness and the way he cared for Feyre in the beginning made him feel like the perfect love interest. On the other hand, I really didn’t like Rhysand at first — his behavior toward Feyre felt manipulative and unsettling when he was first introduced. Despite my initial feelings about the characters, I was completely hooked by the story’s twists, the lush world-building, and the emotional stakes. Feyre’s journey was captivating, and the tension kept building in a way that made it impossible to put the book down. An incredible start to a series that left me excited — and curious — to see what happens next!
