Too many books? I think what you mean is not enough bookshelves.

Wow. I can‘t even begin to explain this book. It was a roller coaster of emotions & I probably cried a total of 3 times throughout the book 😂 The surprises, reveals, & plot twists had me reading until 3 in the morning! The relationships that developed were spot on & I loved them. Anyways, It was an overall fantastic read! Sarah J. Maas has done it again! (Also, my cat enjoyed laying on my book whenever I got to an extremely good part 😂❣️)

One of my favorite quotes from the series!

I could not put this book down! I read it in about a week, and every spare moment I had I read this book. It was perfect from beginning to end, with so many plot twists I truly didn‘t see coming. It was packed with action & adventure until the end and I cried at *that* part. Again, I‘d like to say that Azriel is an absolute sweetheart & I love him. I loved the new characters introduced, especially Viviane. I loved this book, and I 10/10 recommend.

Wow, I absolutely loved this book. I flew through it and couldn‘t put it down. I heard that Feyre and Rhys might get together, and I didn‘t really want that to happen, after how he was in the first book. I put off reading this one for a while, and I wish I hadn‘t. It was nothing like I had expected and I‘m so glad I decided to read it. I loved all of the new characters introduced-Azriel is a sweetheart-and I just loved everything about this book.

TheBookKeepers Ah so glad you liked it!! I loved this book so so much! The new Court of Dreams characters are the best!! 6y
mmtriemstra @TheBookKeepers I agree! And this one was my favorite in the series! 6y
TheBookKeepers Same! And I was like you, I couldn‘t imagine Feyre without Tamlin bc I liked him so much in Book 1. Then after reading this one 😲 it was like my eyes were open lol! I feel the need to reread Book 1 with this new perspective 6y
mmtriemstra @TheBookKeepers I know right! I was actually planning on rereading the first one after I finish the fourth book. It‘d be interesting to see if my perspective had changed! 6y

I felt like this book was slow at first, and at the beginning the writing felt a bit amateur, and almost fanfiction like. The relationship development between Kyla and Ben was a little fast and cliché. It definitely got more exciting as the book developed, and it wasn't as slow at the end as it was in the beginning. But I do like the mystery behind it, and I feel compelled to finish the series because I'm just so curious to see how it ends.

I really enjoyed this book. I love how both Jack and Libby grew throughout the course of the book, and how they each helped each other deal with their problems. This book was filled with fluffy little moments that left butterflies in my stomach, and I absolutely loved how it broke certain stereotypes. It's a must read that anyone would absolutely enjoy.

DebbieGrillo I loved this one too. I was reading it when I was visiting my brother in Richmond, IN. I made him take me to Clara's Pizza King and we sat in the bus! 6y
mmtriemstra @DebbieGrillo Wow that's so cool! I'll have to go there sometime! 6y

I enjoyed this book, but I feel like it was a little slow in the beginning, and it took longer to get to the 'exciting' part. I also think A's and Rhiannon's love story was kind of fast, such as A falling in love with her within a day or two. But other than that I really enjoyed the book, and I loved the author's quotes. I really loved how it was so diverse and the author touched on issues with the LGBT community and other discrimination.

I really enjoyed this book. I flew through it and with the mystery of SN, I couldn't turn the pages fast enough! It was a feel good, hilariously romantic read, and I really loved it. 10/10 would recommend!

I really loved this book! It's become a favorite summer reading book. It made me want to travel to Italy, and I craved pasta all throughout the book. I loved the story between Ren and Lina, and I really liked the twists about her mom's story. I definitely recommend adding it to your stack!

This is one of the best books I've ever read. There were many plot twists, and I loved the story line between Ezra and Cassidy. I love how the characters develop over the course of the book, and overall it was really great. One of my absolute favorites!

WOAH THIS WAS SO GREAT IT IS DEFINITELY A MUST-READ. I was in a book slump for a while and this book pulled me right out of it. I loved how Sam developed over the course of the book, and the twists and turns had me turning the pages as fast as I could. I love the storyline, and I highly recommend! Can't wait for the movie!

Wow. This book was so amazing and intense all throughout it. It was heart-pounding and I literally could not put it down. I "accidentally" stayed up till 1 o'clock reading it. :) I ended up finishing it in one day. But all in all, it was a very great book, and I highly recommend it. Definitely one of the best books I've ever read!

The cover was the first thing to catch my eye. It's a really neat design and I love it! I'm contemplating on whether or not I should read it again, as it was kind of mind numbing. It's a really nice idea, I want to read it and really understand. But in all, it was a pretty good book, and if you like books that are very poetic and all, I totally recommend it!

I really liked this book. It was absolutely hilarious even though it talked about death 😂 and Enzo is literally a 10/10 I mean dude look at this kid he's hot 😂 and I love Maddie's family, and I love how there's some diversity as a lot of books don't have that. I loved the traveling around the world thing, and I definitely added a few things to my bucket list! Anyways, great book and I totally recommend it!

This was a really great book. I cried. A lot. But that's not really a surprise. I felt like at times it got a little boring, and I didn't like this as much as the first book, but it was still really good. The ending had me on the edge of my seat, and my heart was pounding the whole time. I can't wait for the next book to come out!!

I LOVED this book! And the series. I finished the series a little while ago and now I'm rereading it 😂 but I definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes spinoff fairy tales or just a good old adventure. Happy reading!

This is one of my favorite parts in the Perks of Being a Wallflower. Because this is basically me and I hate it when people judge depending on looks and they don't even consider the inside. But it's a great book and I totally recommend it!!
